X-ray radiation can be deadly but its only deadly in large amounts when you get an x-ray it is only for a picture. Gamma radiation is the most harmful radiation as it penetrates everything and gives off deadly radiation and it isn't very common.

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Pani-rosa [81]

The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Calculate the solubility of hydrogen in water at an atmospheric pressure of 0.380 atm (a typical value at high altitude).

Atmospheric Gas Mole Fraction kH mol/(L*atm)

$N_2$ $7.81\times 10^{-1}$ $6.70\times 10^{-4}$

$O_2$ $2.10\times 10^{-1}$ $1.30\times 10^{-3}$

Ar $9.34\times 10^{-3}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$CO_2$ $3.33\times 10^{-4}$ $3.50\times 10^{-2}$

$CH_4$ $2.00\times 10^{-6}$ $1.40\times 10^{-3}$

$H_2$ $5.00\times 10^{-7}$ $7.80\times 10^{-4}$

<u>Answer:</u> The solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the partial pressure of hydrogen gas, we use the equation given by Raoult's law, which is:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=p_T\times \chi_{\text{hydrogen gas}}$

where,

$p_A$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = ?

$p_T$ = total pressure = 0.380 atm

$\chi_A$ = mole fraction of hydrogen gas = $5.00\times 10^{-7}$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=0.380\times 5.00\times 10^{-7}\\\\p_{\text{hydrogen gas}}=1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

To calculate the molar solubility, we use the equation given by Henry's law, which is:

$C_{H_2}=K_H\times p_{H_2}$

where,

$K_H$ = Henry's constant = $7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm$

$p_{H_2}$ = partial pressure of hydrogen gas = $1.9\times 10^{-7}atm$

Putting values in above equation, we get:

$C_{H_2}=7.80\times 10^{-4}mol/L.atm\times 1.9\times 10^{-7}atm\\\\C_{CO_2}=1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Hence, the solubility of hydrogen gas in water at given atmospheric pressure is $1.48\times 10^{-10}M$

Is the following equation balanced? SO3 + 2H2O H2SO4 no yes

postnew [5]

Answer: No

Explanation: It's not balanced because four oxygen atoms in H2SO4, whereas there are 5 oxygen atoms in the reactants side. Also, there's more hydrogen atoms on the reactants side.

I hope this helps!

Count the total number of atoms in the chemical formula 5H2O2

SVEN [57.7K]

Answer:

20 atoms

Explanation:

There are 4 in H2O2 because of 2 hydrogens and 2 oxygens.

Then, multiply by 5 because the coefficient is 5, therefore there are 5 H2O2 molecules.

5 x 4 = 20
