In an equimolar mixture of o2 and n2, are the mass fractions equal?

Chemistry

4 0

Answer:

No

Explanation:

The mass fraction is defined as:

w_{i}=\frac{m_{i} }{m_{t} }

where:

  • wi: mass fraction of the substance i
  • mi: mass of the substance i
  • mt: total mass of the system

<u><em>The mass fraction of two substances (A and B), will be the same, ONLY if the mass of the substance A (mA) is the same as the mass of the substance B (mB).</em></u>

An equimolar mixutre of O2 and N2 has the same amount of moles of oxygen and nitrogen, just to give an example let's say that the system has 1 mole of O2 and 1 mole of N2. Then using the molecuar weigth of each of them we can calculate the mass:

mA= 1 mole of O2 * 16 g/1mol = 16 g

mB=1 mole of N2 *28 g/1mol=28 g

As mA≠mB then the mass fractions are not equal, so the answear is NO.

How does sand cause weathering?
Ivahew [28]
Sand doesn't directly cause weathering because sand is made via weathering. When rocks get weathered they become sand. But maybe when the sand and wind work together they might be able to weather some rocks

julsineya [31]

Answer: option B

Explanation: since nuclear fission involves the decay of larger nuclide into smaller nuclei along with Neutron when it is collide with Neutron.

Which is least likely to be reduced? <br> A. Zn^2+ <br> B. Fe^3+ <br> C. Cu^2+ <br> D. Fe^2+
alekssr [168]

A. Zn²⁺

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

Cations of several elements

Required

The least to be reduced

Solution

If we look at the voltaic series:

<em>Li-K-Ba-Ca-Na-Mg-Al-Mn- (H2O) -Zn-Cr-Fe²⁺-Cd-Co-Ni-Sn-Pb- (H) -Cu-Hg-Fe³⁺-Ag-Pt-Au </em>

The electrode which is easier to reduce than the hydrogen (H2) electrode has a positive sign (E red= +) and is located to the right of the voltaic series (right of H)

The electrode which is easier to oxidize than the hydrogen (H2) electrode and is difficult to experience reduction has a negative sign (E red= -) and is located to the left of the voltaic series (left of H)

Or you can look at the standard reduction potential value of the metals in the answer options, and the most negative reduction E° value which will be difficult to reduce.

The Zn metal is located far left of the other metals in the answer choices, so it is the most difficult to reduce
