<u>Answer:</u>

<u>For 1:</u> The partial pressure of helium is 376 mmHg and that of methane gas is 445 mmHg

<u>For 2:</u> The mole fraction of nitrogen gas is 0.392 and that of carbon dioxide gas is 0.608

<u>Explanation:</u>

<u>For 1:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For helium:</u>

Given mass of helium = 0.723 g

Molar mass of helium = 4 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of helium}=\frac{0.723g}{4g/mol}=0.181mol

  • <u>For methane gas:</u>

Given mass of methane gas = 3.43 g

Molar mass of methane gas = 16 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of methane gas}=\frac{3.43g}{16g/mol}=0.214mol

To calculate the mole fraction , we use the equation:

\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B}     .......(2)

To calculate the partial pressure of gas, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

p_{A}=p_T\times \chi_{A}       ......(3)

  • <u>For Helium gas:</u>

We are given:

n_{He}=0.181mol\\n_{CH_4}=0.214mol

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

\chi_{He}=\frac{0.181}{0.181+0.214}=0.458

Calculating the partial pressure by using equation 3, we get:

p_T=821mmHg\\\\\chi_{He}=0.458

Putting values in equation 3, we get:

p_{He}=0.458\times 821mmHg=376mmHg

  • <u>For Methane gas:</u>

We are given:

n_{He}=0.181mol\\n_{CH_4}=0.214mol

Putting values in equation 2, we get:

\chi_{CH_4}=\frac{0.214}{0.181+0.214}=0.542

Calculating the partial pressure by using equation 3, we get:

p_T=821mmHg\\\\\chi_{CH_4}=0.542

Putting values in equation 3, we get:

p_{CH_4}=0.542\times 821mmHg=445mmHg

Hence, the partial pressure of helium is 376 mmHg and that of methane gas is 445 mmHg

  • <u>For 2:</u>

We are given:

Partial pressure of nitrogen gas = 363 mmHg

Partial pressure of carbon dioxide gas = 564 mmHg

Total pressure = (363 + 564) mmHg = 927 mmHg

Calculating the mole fraction of the gases by using equation 3:

<u>For nitrogen gas:</u>

363=\chi_{N_2}\times 927\\\\\chi_{N_2}=\frac{363}{927}=0.392

<u>For carbon dioxide gas:</u>

564=\chi_{CO_2}\times 927\\\\\chi_{CO_2}=\frac{564}{927}=0.608

Hence, the mole fraction of nitrogen gas is 0.392 and that of carbon dioxide gas is 0.608

Boron has an atomic mass of 10.811. What does this mean?
icang [17]

Answer:

Knowing that boron has an atomic mass of 10,811 means that all boron isotopes on average weigh 10,811 u.

Explanation:

The atomic mass of an atom is the mass of the atom measured in u (unified atomic mass unit), although we can also express it as Da (Dalton's unit)

Atomic mass refers to the average mass that all isotopes of that element have.

When we speak of isotopes we are referring to the element itself but with a different number of neutrons, which makes it modify its mass number.

inysia [295]

0.0467 X 10^{-4} M/kPa is the solubility of the gas when it exerts a partial pressure of 92.4kPa.

<h3>What is Henry's law?</h3>

Mathematically, we can get this from Henry's law

From Henry law;

Concentration = Henry constant × partial pressure

Thus Henry constant = \frac{Concentration}{partial \;pressure}

Henry constant = \frac{4.32 \;X \;10^{-4} mol}{92.4kPa}

= 0.0467 X 10^{-4} M/kPa

Hence, 0.0467 X 10^{-4} M/kPa is the solubility of the gas when it exerts a partial pressure of 92.4kPa.

Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is used as a strong base in organic synthesis. LDA is itself prepared by an acid-base reaction be
kakasveta [241]

Explanation:

Lithium diisopropylamide (LDA) is used in many organic synthesis and is a strong base. It is prepared by the acid base reaction of N,N-diisopropylamine ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH ) and butyllithium ( Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ).

The equation is show below as:

[(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH + Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃  ⇒  [(CH₃)₂CH]₂N⁻Li⁺  + CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃

N,N-diisopropylamine ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂NH ) is a weaker acid and hence,  LDA ( [(CH₃)₂CH]₂N⁻Li⁺ ) is stronger base. (Weaker acid has stronger conjugate base)

Butyllithium ( Li⁺⁻CH₂CH₂CH₂CH₃ ) is a very strong base and hence, butane ( CH₃CH₂CH₂CH₃ ) is a very weak acid. (Strong base has weaker conjugate acid)
