Answer: The partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the total pressure is 525 mmHg is 310 mm Hg

Explanation:

mass of nitrogen = 37.8 g

mass of oxygen = (100-37.8) g = 62.2 g

Using the equation given by Raoult's law, we get:

p_A=\chi_A\times P_T

p_{O_2} = partial pressure of O_2 = ?

\chi_{O_2} = mole fraction of O_2=\frac{\text{Moles of }O_2}{\text{Total moles}}

P_{T} = total pressure of mixture  = 525 mmHg

{\text{Moles of }O_2}=\frac{\text {Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{62.2g}{32g/mol}=1.94moles

{\text{Moles of }N_2}=\frac{\text {Given mass}}{\text {Molar mass}}=\frac{37.8g}{28g/mol}=1.35moles

Total moles = 1.94 + 1.35 = 3.29 moles

\chi_{O_2}=\frac{1.94}{3.29}=0.59

p_{O_2}=\chi_{O_2}\times P_T=0.59\times 525=310mmHg

Thus the partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture if the total pressure is 525 mmHg is 310 mm Hg

How many liters of oxygen are required to react completely with 14.8 mol of Al?
Bond [772]

Answer:

296 L  

Explanation:

We will need a balanced equation with moles, so let's gather all the information in one place.

                  4Al + 3O₂ ⟶ 2Al₂O₃

n/mol:        17.4

1. Moles of O₂

n = \text{17.4 mol Al}\times \dfrac{\text{3 mol O}_{2}}{\text{4 mol Al}}= \text{13.05 mol O}_{2}

2. Volume of O₂

You haven't given the conditions at which the volume is measured, so I assume it is at STP (0 °C and 1 bar).

At STP the molar volume of a gas is 22.71 L.

V = \text{13.05 mol}\times \dfrac{\text{22.71 L}}{\text{1 mol }}= \textbf{296 L}

Which compound can act as both a Bronsted-Lowry acid and a Bronsted-Lowry base?
Dvinal [7]
The answer is A. Water

Bronsted-Lowry base compounds are those that can accept protons

Bronsted-Lowry Acid Compounds are those that can recieve one

Water / H2O is an Amphoteric compund which mean that its molecul can act as a Base and Acid compound, so the answer is A.
