Three gases (8.00 g of methane, CH4, 18.0 g of ethane, C2H6, and an unknown amount of propane, C3H8) were added to the same 10.0

-L container. At 23.0 ∘C, the total pressure in the container is 5.00 atm . Calculate the partial pressure of each gas in the container.

Answer:

Partial pressure of methane: 1.18 atm

Partial pressure of ethane: 1.45 atm

Partial pressure of propane: 2.35 atm

Explanation:

Let the total moles of gases in a container be n.

Total pressure of the gases in a container =P = 5.0 atm

Temperature of the gases in a container =T = 23°C = 296.15 K

Volume of the container = V = 10.0 L

PV=nRT (Ideal gas equation)

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{5.0 atm\times 10.0 L}{0.0821 atm L/mol K\times 296.15 K}=2.0564 mol

Moles of methane gas =n_1=\frac{8.00 g}{16.04 g/mol}=0.4878 mol

Moles of ethane gas =n_2=\frac{18.00 g}{30.07 g/mol}=0.5986 mol

Moles of propane gas =n_3=?

n=n_1+n_2+n_3

n_3=n-n_1-n_2=2.0564 mol-0.4878 mol-0.5986 mol= 0.9700 mol

Partial pressure of all the gases can be calculated by using Raoult's law:

p_i=P\times \chi_i

p_i = partial pressure of 'i' component.

\chi_1 = mole fraction of 'i' component in mixture

P = total pressure of the mixture

Partial pressure of methane:

p_1=P\times \chi_1=P\times \frac{n_1}{n_1+n+2+n_3}=P\times \frac{n_1}{n}

p_1=5.00 atm\times \frac{0.4878 mol}{2.0564 mol}=1.18 atm

Partial pressure of ethane:

p_2=P\times \chi_2=P\times \frac{n_2}{n_1+n+2+n_3}=P\times \frac{n_2}{n}

p_2=5.00 atm\times \frac{0.5986 mol}{2.0564 mol}=1.45 atm

Partial pressure of propane:

p_3=P\times \chi_3=P\times \frac{n_3}{n_1+n+2+n_3}=P\times \frac{n_3}{n}

p_3=5.00 atm\times \frac{0.9700 mol}{2.0564 mol}=2.35 atm

Answer:

1-(tert-butoxy)-2-methylpropane

Note: there is a mistake in formula, the correct formula is (CH₃)₂-CH-CH₂-O-C(CH₃)₃ not (CH₃)₂-CH-CH₂-O(CH₃)₃, because oxygen is a divalent compound.

Explanation:

<em>Structural formula is attached</em>

IUPAC naming rules

1. start numbering the chain from the functional group. In this compound we        start from oxygen side.

2. Here we can see that at position 1 there is an oxy group along with a tertiary carbon having three methyl groups. So we write it as 1-tert-butoxy. Which means that there is a methoxy group at position 1 along with a tertiary carbon.

3. At position 2 we can see that there is a methyl group attached to the main chain, so we write it as 2-methyl.

4. Now we count the total number of carbons in the main chain. As we can see that there are 3 carbons in the remaining or parent chain, so we write it as propane

5. So the IUPAC name of the compound will be 1-(tert-butoxy)-2-methylpropane

Answer:

1. not enough dye was added to the drink.

The wrong dye was added to the drink

the water in the drink is evaporating

2. Changing the compound changes the absorbance behavior.

3. Measure the absorbance for the same solution in different cuvette sizes and find the y-intercept.

Explanation:

When the beverage company adds dye to the drink, there should be standard quantity added to the drink so that the color of the drink remains constant. When too much dye is added to the drink, the color will get dark brown or black. When the color of drink get lighter than green this means dye is not added in required quantity.
