Answer:

The partial pressure of the oxygen is 82.98 mmHg.

Explanation:

From the given,

Atmospheric pressure = 461 mmHg

Atmospheric oxygen = 18%

Partial pressure of  oxygen =?

Partial\,pressure\,of\,oxygen\,=\,Total\,pressure\timesVolume\,fraction

=$\text{461\,mmHg}$\times \frac{18}{100}\,=82.98\,$\text{mmHg}$

Therefore, Partial pressure of oxygen is 82.98 mmHg.

First, please check the missing part in your question in the attachment.
a) So first, the Rank of pressure:
according to this formula PV = nRT and when n = m/Mw
PV = m/Mw * R*T
when we have the same mass m and the same V volume so P will proportional with the mole weight M as when the M is smaller the pressure will be greater 
when Mw of H2(A) = 2 g / Mw of He (B) = 4 g and Mw of CH4(C) = 16 g
∴ Pressure :
 (A) > (B) > (c)

B) The rank of average molecular kinetic energy:
when K = 3/2 KB T
when K is the average kinetic energy per molecule of gas 
and KB is Boltzmann's constant
and T is the temperature (K)
So from this equation, we can know that K only depends on T value, and when we have the T constant here for A, B, and C So the rank of K will be like the following:
∴ A = B = C
C) the rank of diffusion rate after the valve is opened:
according to this formula:
R2/R1 = √M1/M2
from this equation, we can see that diffusion is proportional to the reciprocal of the molecular mass M so,
when Mw H2 (A) = 2 g & Mw He(B) = 4 g & CH4 (C) = 16 g
∴ the rank of diffusion:
A > B > C

D) The rank of the Total kinetic energy of the molecules:
when we have the Mw different so it will make the no.of molecules differs as when the Mw is low the no.of molecules will be hight, and when the average molecular kinetic energy equals. so the total kinetic energy will depend on no. of molecules 
∵ Mw A < Mw B < Mw C 
∴no .of molecules of A > B >C
∴ the rank of total kinetic energy is:
A > B > C

e) the rank of density:

when ρ = m/ v 
and m is the mass & v is the volume and we have both is the same for A, B, and C
so the density also will be the same, ∴ the rank of the density is:
A = B = C

F) the rank of the collision frequency:
as the no.of molecules increase the collision frequency increase and depend also on the velocity and it's here the same.
∴ Collision frequency will only depend on the no.of molecules
we have no.of molecules of A > B > C as Mw A < B < C 
∴the rank of the collision frequency is:
A > B > C

Alex777 [14]

Answer:

Box is made up of <em>copper</em>, because density is <em>8.96  g/cm³.</em>

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of box = 17.63 cm³

Mass of box = 158 g

Which metal box is this = ?

Solution:

First we will calculate the density of box then we will compare it with the density value of given metals.

d = m/v

d = 158 g/ 17.63 cm³

d = 8.96  g/cm³

The calculated density is similar to the given density value of copper thus box is made up of copper.
