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

Equal moles of H2, N2, O2, and He are placed into separate containers at the same temperature. Assuming each gas behaves ideally
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

They would all exhibit the same pressure.

Explanation:

Since the same number of mole of each gas is placed in different containers, it means the gas will occupy the same volume.

Now, the gases were observed at the same temperature. This means they will all have the same pressure as their volume is the same.

Now we can further understand this by doing a simple calculation as follow:

Assumptions:

For H2:

Number of mole (n) = 1 mole

Volume (V) = 22.4L

Temperature (T) = 298K

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol

Pressure =..?

PV = nRT

Divide both side V

P = nRT /V

P = 1 x 0.0821 x 298 / 22.4

P = 1 atm

Therefore, H2 has a pressure of 1 atm.

For N2:

Number of mole (n) = 1 mole

Volume (V) = 22.4L

Temperature (T) = 298K

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol

Pressure =..?

PV = nRT

Divide both side V

P = nRT /V

P = 1 x 0.0821 x 298 / 22.4

P = 1 atm

Therefore, N2 has a pressure of 1 atm

For O2:

Number of mole (n) = 1 mole

Volume (V) = 22.4L

Temperature (T) = 298K

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol

Pressure =..?

PV = nRT

Divide both side V

P = nRT /V

P = 1 x 0.0821 x 298 / 22.4

P = 1 atm

Therefore, O2 has a pressure of 1 atm

For He:

Number of mole (n) = 1 mole

Volume (V) = 22.4L

Temperature (T) = 298K

Gas constant (R) = 0.0821 atm.L/Kmol

Pressure =..?

PV = nRT

Divide both side V

P = nRT /V

P = 1 x 0.0821 x 298 / 22.4

P = 1 atm

Therefore, He has a pressure of 1 atm.

From the above illustrations we can see that the gases have the same pressure since they have the same number of mole, volume and were observed at the same temperature.

The base that will NOT combine with 2-deoxyribose to form a nucleic acid is _____.
beks73 [17]

Answer:

Uracil

Explanation:

The base that will NOT combine with 2-deoxyribose to form a nucleic acid is Uracil.

2-deoxyribose is a pentose sugar found in the DNA (Deoxyribonucleic acid). It is devoid of oxygen in its 2' position. The bases found in DNA are Adenine, Guanine, Cytosine and Thymine. Adenine, Guanine, and Cytosine are also found in RNA (Ribonucleic acid). Thymine is not present in RNA, it is only found in DNA. The base found in RNA is Uracil which in turn is not present in DNA. The five carbon sugar present in RNA is ribose which combines with Uracil.
