Answer:

152 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

Explanation:

Data by percent is the molar fraction . 100.

Molar fraction of Helium = 32/ 100 → 0.32

Molar fraction of O₂ = 68/100 → 0.68

Sum of molar fractions in a mixture = 1

0.68 + 0.32 = 1

If we apply the molar fraction, we can determine the partial pressure.

Mole fraction = Partial pressure / Total pressure

0.32 = Partial pressure O₂ / 475kPa →  0.32 . 475 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

152 kPa = Partial pressure O₂

Lilit [14]

Answer:

0.038 g of reactant

Explanation:

Data given:

Heat release for each gram of reactant consumption = 36.2 kJ/g

mass of reactant that release 1360 J of heat = ?

Solution:

As  36.2 kJ of heat release per gram of reactant consumption so first we will convert KJ to J

As we know

1 KJ = 1000 J

So

36.2 kJ = 36.2 x 1000 = 36200 J

So it means that in chemical reaction 36200 J of heat release for each gram of reactant consumed so how much mass of reactant will be consumed if 1360 J heat will release

Apply unity formula

                 36200 J of heat release ≅ 1 gram of reactant

                 1360 J of heat release ≅ X gram of reactant

Do cross multiplication

              X gram of reactant = 1 g x 1360 J / 36200 J

              X gram of reactant = 0.038 g

So 0.038 g of reactant will produce 1360 J of heat.
