The question is incomplete, here is the complete question:

Consider a mixture of two gases, A and B, confined in a closed vessel. A quantity of a third gas, C, is added to the same vessel at the same temperature. How does the addition of gas C affect the following. The mole fraction of gas B?

A mixture of gases contains 10.25 g of N₂, 2.05 g of H₂, and 7.63 g of NH₃.

<u>Answer:</u> The mole fraction of gas B (hydrogen gas) is 0.557

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the number of moles, we use the equation:

\text{Number of moles}=\frac{\text{Given mass}}{\text{Molar mass}}     .....(1)

  • <u>For nitrogen gas:</u>

Given mass of nitrogen gas = 10.25 g

Molar mass of nitrogen gas = 28 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of nitrogen gas}=\frac{10.25g}{28g/mol}=0.366mol

  • <u>For hydrogen gas:</u>

Given mass of hydrogen gas = 2.05 g

Molar mass of hydrogen gas = 2 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of hydrogen gas}=\frac{2.05g}{2g/mol}=1.025mol

  • <u>For ammonia gas:</u>

Given mass of ammonia gas = 7.63 g

Molar mass of ammonia gas = 17 g/mol

Putting values in equation 1, we get:

\text{Moles of ammonia gas}=\frac{7.63g}{17g/mol}=0.449mol

Mole fraction of a substance is given by:

\chi_A=\frac{n_A}{n_A+n_B+n_C}

Moles of gas B (hydrogen gas) = 1.025 moles

Total moles = [0.366 + 1.025 + 0.449] = 1.84 moles

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\chi_{(H_2)}=\frac{1.025}{1.84}=0.557

Hence, the mole fraction of gas B (hydrogen gas) is 0.557

Which sample of matter is classified as a solution? 1. H2O(s) 2. H2O(l) 3. CO2(g) 4. CO2(aq)
lys-0071 [83]

Answer : Option 4) CO_{2}_{(aq)}

Explanation : CO_{2}_{(aq)} is the only sample of matter which can be classified as a solution. As the solution can be defined as a liquid mixture which contains a minor component (the solute) that is uniformly distributed within the major component (the solvent).

In this case, the solute is CO_{2} which is dissolved in water which acts as an solvent. Also, it has a subscript which is aq. which means aqueous, is often given to the solution in which the solvent is water.

Therefore, CO_{2}_{(aq)} is the correct answer.

Aqueous acetic acid is neutralized by aqueous barium hydroxide. express your answer as a balanced molecular equation. identify a
Studentka2010 [4]

The balanced molecular equation for the given reaction is:

2CH_3COOH(aq) \ + \ Ba(OH)_2(aq) \rightarrow \ Ba(CH_3COO)_2(aq) + 2H_2O(l).

<h3>FURTHER EXPLANATION</h3>

To check that the equation is balanced count how many atoms are present for each element in the reactant and product side. If they are the same before and after reaction for all elements, then the reaction is deemed balanced.

The atom counting for the equation is shown below:

2CH_3COOH(aq) \ + \ Ba(OH)_2(aq) \rightarrow \ Ba(CH_3COO)_2(aq) + 2H_2O(l).

<u>Reactants </u>                  →                 <u>Products</u>

C:  (2 x 2) =4                                  C: (2 x 2) = 4

H: (2 x 4) + (1 x 2) =10                    H: (3 x 2) + (2 X 2) = 10

O: (2 x 2) + (1 x 2) = 6                    O: (2 x 2) + (2 x 1) = 6

Ba: 1                                               Ba: 1

Since the number of atoms of each element are similar in the reactants and products, the equation is balanced.

To determine the state of the substances, consider their solubility.

The reactants are both aqueous (aq) as indicated in the problem.

The first product, Ba(CH_3COO)_2 is aqueous (aq) because based on the solubility rule, it will dissolve in water. Acetates are generally soluble.

The other product is water which will be liquid (l) since it is the solvent used to dissolve the substances.

The fluid in a barometer (shown above) is mercury, Hg. Why point
PIT_PIT [208]

Answer:

Mercury responds to temperatures differently than water. When mercury is cold, the molecules bunch together, making it seem to be less liquid, and the opposite happens during heat.

Hope this helps!
