Answer: 25.07 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial Pressure of gas (P1) = ?

Initial Volume of gas (V1) = 28L

Initial Temperature of gas (T1) = 318K

Final pressure of helium = 20 atm

Final volume of gas (V2) = 34L

Final temperature of gas (T2) = 308K

Since pressure, volume and temperature are given, apply the combined gas equation

(P1V1)/T1 = (P2V2)/T2

(P1 x 28L)/318K = (20 atm x 34L)/308K

28L•P1/318K = 680 atm•L/308K

To get P1, cross multiply

28L•P1 x 308K = 680 atm•L x 318K

8624L•K•P1 = 216240 atm•L•K

Divide both sides by 8624L•K

8624L•K•P1/8624L•K = 216240 atm•L•K/8624L•K

P1 = 25.07 atm

Thus, the original pressure of the gas is 25.07 atmosphere

Ions that are made of more than one atom are examples of

anastassius [24]

These ions are polyatomic ions. The prefix "poly-" means "many," and the rest of the word "atomic" clearly refers to the atoms themselves. So, if there are two or more atoms in an ion, this ion is polyatomic.

Answer:

$p = \boxed{\text{593 torr}}$

Explanation:

For this question, we must use Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures:

The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture of gases equals its mole fraction times the total pressure:

$p = \chi p_{\text{tot}}$

Data:

χ = 0.7808

$p_{\text{tot}} = \text{ 760 torr}$

Calculation:

$p = 0.7808 \times \text{ 760 torr}\\\\p= \boxed{\textbf{593 torr}}$

Xenon (xe) of mass 5.08 g reacts with fluorine to form 9.49 g of a xenon fluoride compound. what is the empirical formula of thi

jenyasd209 [6]

We are already given with the mass of the Xe and it is 5.08 g. We can calculate for the mass of the fluorine in the compound by subtracting the mass of xenon from the mass of the compound.

mass of Xenon (Xe) = 5.08 g
mass of Fluorine (F) = 9.49 g - 5.08 g = 4.41 g

Determine the number of moles of each of the element in the compound.
moles of Xenon (Xe) = (5.08 g)(1 mol Xe / 131.29 g of Xe) = 0.0387 mols of Xe
moles of Fluorine (F) = (4.41 g)(1 mol F/ 19 g of F) = 0.232 mols of F

The empirical formula is therefore,
Xe(0.0387)F(0.232)
Dividing the numerical coefficient by the lesser number.
 XeF₆
