If a balloon is filled with a mixture of helium and oxygen, which gas will escape faster? Why?

Chemistry
1 answer:
Serjik [45]3 years ago
4 0

Answer:

The rate of leakage will be higher for helium; its molecules move about 3 times faster than oxygen’s

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Molar mass helium = 4.0 g/mol

Molar mass O2 = 32 g/mol

Step 2: Graham's law

Graham's Law of Effusion states that the rate of effusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of the molecular mass : 1/(Mr)^0.5

Rate of escape for He = 1/(4.0)^0.5 = 0.5

Rate of escape for O2 = 1/(32)^0.5 = 0.177

The rate of leakage will be higher for helium; its molecules move about 3 times faster than oxygen’s

What is the pOH of a solution that has an H+=7.7x10^-7 M
pentagon [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

Step 1

The question is based on the concept of PH and pOH calculations.

pH is defined as negative logarithmic of hydronium Ion concentration.

while pOH is defined as negative logarithmic of hydroxide ion concentration of the solution.

Step 2

[H+] = 7.7*10-7  M  

pH = -log[H+]  

    = -log ( 7.7*10-7 )

     = 6.12

Step 3

pOH = 14 - pH

   = 14 - 6.11

  = 7.89

How would you find the volume of a regular object and irregular object?
Sveta_85 [38]

Answer:

You can find the volume of an irregular object by immersing it in water in a beaker or other container with volume markings, and by seeing how much the level goes up. Or by multiplying all the sides of the container. #markasbrainliest
