Answer:

Explanation:

The pressure of a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases:

ΣP_g_a_s = P_1+P_2+P_3+...+P_n

The prompt is trying to confuse you, but it actually tells us the pressure of the mixture to be 1 atm, but this can be converted to torr. Furthermore, we are informed only three gases are in the mixture: diatomic nitrogen, diatomic oxygen, and carbon dioxide:

P_g_a_s=1 \ atm = 760 \ torr= P_N_2+P_O_2+P_C_O_2\\760 \ torr = 582.008 \ torr + P_O_2 \ + 0.285 \ torr

Solve for Po2:

P_o_2=(760-582.008-0.285) \ torr = 177.707 \ torr

Thus, the partial pressure of diatomic oxygen is 177.707 torr.

An x-ray has a wavelength

Answer:

C

Explanation:

For electromagnetic waves frequency X wavelength = speed of light

                                                f * 2.2 x 10^-11  = 3 x 10^8  m/s

                                         f = 3 x 10^8 / 2.2 x 10^-11

                                            = 1.36 x 10 ^19

                                             = 1.4 x 10^19   with two significant digits
