Answer:

Pressure, P = 15.4 lb/in²

Explanation:

Given that,

Force applied, F = 26.4 lb

Area of cross section, A = 1.71 in²

To find,

Pressure.

Solution,

Pressure is equal to force per unit area of cross section.

P=\dfrac{F}{A}\\\\P=\dfrac{26.4\ lb}{1.71\ in^2}\\\\P=15.43\ lb/in^2\\\\P=15.43\ Pa

Hence, the correct option is (a) "15.4 lb/in²".

A 255 ml gas sample contains argon and nitrogen gas at a temperature of 65 oc. the total pressure of the sample is 725 mmhg, and
Serhud [2]
We calculate first for the number of moles of gases in the sample through the ideal gas equation.
                                       n = PV/RT
      n = (725 mmHg/760 mmHg/atm)(0.255 L) / (0.0821 L.atm/mol.K)(65 + 273.15)  
                                       n = 8.76 x 10^-3 mol
Then, we calculate for the mol N2 using the ratio of the pressure.
                          n N2 = (8.76 x 10^-3 mols)(231 mmHg/725 mmHg)
                           n N2 = 2.79 x 10^-3 moles
Then, multiply the value with the molar mass of N2 which is 28 grams per mol giving us the answer of 0.078 grams.
