Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Pressure (P) = 760 torr = 1 atm
Volume (V) = 
= 0.720 L
Temperature (T) = 
= (25 + 273) K = 298 K
Using ideal gas equation, we will calculate the number of moles as follows.
PV = nRT
Total atoms present (n) = 
= 
= 0.0294 mol
Let us assume that there are x mol of Ar and y mol of Xe.
Hence, total number of moles will be as follows.
x + y = 0.0294
Also, 40x + 131y = 2.966
x = 0.0097 mol
y = (0.0294 - 0.0097)
= 0.0197 mol
Therefore, mole fraction will be calculated as follows.
Mol fraction of Xe = 
= 
= 0.67
Therefore, the mole fraction of Xe is 0.67.
Potassium oxide: K₂O.
There's no need for prefixes since K₂O is an ionic compound.
<h3>Explanation</h3>
Find the two elements on a periodic table:
- Potassium- K- on the left end of period four.
- Oxygen- O- near the right end of periodic two.
Elements on the bottom-left corner of the periodic table are metals. Those on the top-right corner are nonmetals.
- Potassium is a metal,
- Oxygen is a nonmetal.
A metal and a nonmetal combine to form an ionic compound. Potassium oxide is likely to be an ionic compound. It contains two types of ions:
- Potassium ions: Potassium is group 1 of the periodic table. It is an alkaline metal. Like other alkaline metals such as sodium Na, potassium K tends to lose one electron and form ions of charge +1 in compounds. The ion would be K⁺.
- Oxide ions from oxygen: Oxygen is the second most electronegative element on the periodic table. It tends to gain two electrons and form the oxide ion
when it combines with metals.
The two types of ions carry opposite charges. They shall pair up at a certain ratio such that they balance the charge on each other. The charge on each ion is twice that on a 
ion. Each would pair up with two . Hence the subscript in the formula: 
.
There are two classes of compounds:
- Covalent compounds, which need prefixes, and
- Ionic compounds, which need no prefix.
Prefixes are needed only in covalent compounds. For instance in the covalent compound carbon dioxide 
, the prefix di- indicates that there are two oxygen atoms in the formula . However, there's no need for prefix in ionic compounds such as 
.
The rate constant of the reaction K we can get it from this formula:
K=㏑2/ t1/2 and when we have this given (missing in question):
that we have one jar is labeled t = 0 S and has 16 yellow spheres inside and the jar beside it labeled t= 10 and has 8 yellow spheres and 8 blue spheres and the yellow spheres represent the reactants A and the blue represent the products B
So when after 10 s and we were having 16 yellow spheres as reactants and becomes 8 yellow and 8 blue spheres as products so it decays to the half amount so we can consider T1/2 = 10 s
a) by substitution in K formula:
∴ K = ㏑2 / 10 = 0.069
The amount of A (the reactants) after N half lives = Ao / 2^n
b) so no.of yellow spheres after 20 s (2 half-lives) = 16/2^2 = 4
and the blue spheres = Ao - no.of yellow spheres left = 16 - 4 = 12
c) The no.of yellow spheres after 30 s (3 half-lives) = 16/2^3 = 2
and the blue spheres = 16 - 2 = 14
