How do I solve these equations?

A 6.000L tank at 19.2°C is filled with 18.0g of carbon monoxide gas and 10.6g of chlorine pentafluoride gas. You can assume both

Jobisdone [24]

Answer:

Total pressure: 2.89 atm

Mole fraction CO: 0.88

Partial pressure CO: 2.56 atm

Mole fraction ClF₅: 0.12

Partial pressure ClF₅: 0.33 atm

Explanation:

We should apply the Ideal Gases Law to solve this:

P . V = n . R . T

We need n, which is the total moles for the mixture

Total moles = Moles of CO + Moles of ClF₅

Moles of CO = mass of CO / molar mass CO → 18 g/28 g/mol = 0.643 mol

Moles of ClF₅ = mass of ClF₅ / molar mass ClF₅ → 10.6g/ 130.45 g/m = 0.0812 mol

0.643 mol + 0.0812 mol → 0.724 moles in the mixture

So we have the total moles so with the formula we would know the total pressure.

P . 6L = 0.724 mol . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 292.2K

P = ( 0.724 mol . 0.082L.atm/mol.K . 292.2K) / 6L

P = 2.89 atm

Mole fraction is defined as the quotient between the moles of gas over total moles, and it is equal to partial pressure of that gas over total pressure

Moles of gas X /Total moles = Partial pressure of gas X/Total pressure

(Moles of gas X / Total moles) . Total pressure = Partial pressure of gas X

Mole fraction CO = 0.643 / 0.724 = 0.88

Partial pressure CO = 0.88 . 2.89 atm → 2.56 atm

Mole fraction ClF₅ = 0.0812 / 0.724 = 0.12

Partial pressure ClF₅ = 0.12 . 2.89 atm → 0.33 atm

16.0 grams of molecular oxygen gas is equal to

IceJOKER [234]

One thing to notice in the question is, we are asked about molecular oxygen that has formula O2 not atomic oxygen O.

As we are asked about molecular oxygen, we will answer the question in terms of number of molecules that are present in 16 grams of molecular oxygen.

To get the number of molecules present in 16 grams of O2, we will use the formula:

No. of molecules = no. of moles x Avogadro's number (NA)----- eq 1)

As we know:

The number of moles = mass/ molar mass of molecule

Here we have been given mass already, 16 grams and the molar mass of O2 is 32 grams.

Putting the values in above formula:

= 16/32

= 0.5 moles

Putting the number of moles and Avogadro's number (6.02 * 10^23) in eq 1

No. of molecules = 0.5 x 6.02 * 10^23

=3.01 x 10^23 molecules

or 301,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 molecules

This means that 16 grams of 3.01 x 10^23 molecules of oxygen.

Hope it helps!

How much of a sample remains after three half-lives have occurred? 1/16 of the original sample 1/9 of the original sample 1/8 of

Drupady [299]

For this question, assume that you have 1 compound. This compound is divided in half once, so you are left with 0.5. That 0.5 that remains is divided in half again, this is the second half-life, and you are left with 0.25. The final half life involves dividing 0.25 in half, which means you are left with 0.125. For the answer to make sense, you need to know your conversions between decimals and fractions. To make it simple, if you have 0.125 and you times it by 8, you are left with your initial value of 1. Therefore, after three half-lives, you are left with 1/8th of the compound.
