Answer:

5.00*10^{-5}

Explanation:

\frac{6.32*10^{-4} }{12.64}  = 0.00005= 5.00*10^{-5}

The answer is in three significant figures because that is the least number of significant figures in any of the numbers involved in the calculation

A mixture of gases with a pressure of 800.0 mm hg contains 60% nitrogen and 40% oxygen by volume. What is the partial pressure o
larisa86 [58]

Answer:

  • <em>The partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture is</em><u> 320.0 mm Hg</u>

Explanation:

<u>1) Take a base of 100 liters of mixture</u>:

  • N: 60% × 100 liter  = 60 liter

  • O: 40 % × 100 liter = 40 liter.

<u>2) Volume fraction:</u>

At constant pressure and temperature, the volume of a gas is proportional to the number of molecules.

Then, the mole ratio is equal to the volume ratio. Callin n₁ and n₂, the number of moles of nitrogen and oxygen, respectively, and V₁, V₂ the volume of the respective gases you can set the proportion:

  • V₁ / V₂ = n₁ / n₂

That means that the mole ratio is equal to the volume ratio, and the mole fraction is equal to the volume fraction.

Then, since the law of partial pressures of gases states that the partial pressure of each gas is equal to the mole fraction of the gas multiplied by the total pressure, you can draw the conclusion that the partial pressure of each gas is equal to the volume fraction of the gas in the mixture multiplied by the total pressure.

Then calculate the volume fractions:

  • Volume fraction of a gas = volume of the gas / volume of the mixture

  • N: 60 liter / 100 liter = 0.6 liter

  • V: 40 liter / 100 liter = 0.4 liter

<u>3) Partial pressures:</u>

These are the final calculations and results:

  • Partial pressure = volume fraction × total pressure

  • Partial pressure of N = 0.6 × 800.0 mm Hg = 480.0 mm Hg

  • Partial pressure of O = 0.4 × 800.0 mm Hg = 320.0 mm Hg

Describe the results of a physical change and list<br> three examples of physical change.
Alex Ar [27]

Physical changes are changes affecting the form of a chemical substance, but not its chemical composition. Physical changes are used to separate mixtures into their component compounds, but can not usually be used to separate compounds into chemical elements or simpler compounds.

Ex: cutting a paper, gaining weight, cutting hair
