<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

what is the balanced equation when copper metal is placed in a solution when platnium ii chloride is placed. what is the equatio
koban [17]

Answer:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->Pt~+~CuCl_2

Explanation:

In this case, we can start with the <u>formula of Platinum (II) Chloride</u>. The cation is the atom at the left of the name (in this case Pt^+^2) and the anion is the atom at the right of the name (in this case Cl^-). With this in mind, the <u>formula would be</u> PtCl_2.

Now, if we used <u>metallic copper</u> we have to put in the reaction only the <u>copper atom symbol</u> Cu. So, we have as reagents:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->

The question now is: <u>What would be the products?</u> To answer this, we have to remember <u>"single displacement reactions"</u>. With a general reaction:

A~+~BC->AB~+~C

With this in mind, the reaction would be:

Cu~+~PtCl_2->Pt~+~CuCl_2

I hope it helps!

Methane gas and chlorine gas react to form hydrogen chloride gas and carbon tetrachloride gas. What volume of carbon tetrachlori
mario62 [17]

Answer:

0.55mL of carbon tetrachloride

Explanation:

CH4(g) + 2Cl2(g) -------> CCl4(g) + 2H2(g)

From the balanced reaction equation

44800mL of chlorine produces 22400 ml of carbon tetrachloride

If 1.1mL of chlorine were consumed, volume of carbon tetrachloride= 1.1×22400/44800

=0.55mL of carbon tetrachloride

Note: 1 mole of a gas occupies 22.4L volume or 22400mL

Calculate the volume of 1M NaOH required to neutralize 200 cc of 2M HCI. What mass of sodium
Nezavi [6.7K]

NaOH+HCl-> NaCl+H2O

1 mole of NaOH

1 mole of HCl.

To calculate volume of NaOH

CaVa/CbVb= Na/Nb

Where Ca=2M

Cb=1M

Va=200cm³

Vb=xcm³

Substitute into the equation.

2×200/1×Vb=1/1

400/Vb=1/1

Cross multiply

Vb×1=400×1

Vb=400cm³

To calculate the mass of sodium chloride, NaCl from the neutralization rxn.

Mole of NaCl=1

Molar mass of NaCl= 23+35.5=58.5

Mass=xgrammes.

Mass of NaCl=Number of moles × Molar mass.

Substitute

Mass of NaCl= 1×58.5

=58.5g

This is what I could come up with.
