Answer:
χH₂ = 0.4946
χN₂ = 0.4130
χAr = 0.0923
Explanation:
The total pressure of the mixture (P) is:
P = pH₂ + pN₂ + pAr
P = 443.0 Torr + 369.9 Torr + 82.7 Torr
P = 895.6 Torr
We can find the mole fraction of each gas (χ) using the following expression.
χi = pi / P
χH₂ = pH₂ / P = 443.0 Torr/895.6 Torr = 0.4946
χN₂ = pN₂ / P = 369.9 Torr/895.6 Torr = 0.4130
χAr = pAr / P = 82.7 Torr/895.6 Torr = 0.0923
Answer:Since there is virtually nothing in space to scatter or re-radiate the light to our eye, we see no part of the light and the sky appears to be black.
Explanation:
When the reaction equation is:
CaSO3(s) → CaO(s) + SO2(g)
we can see that the molar ratio between CaSO3 & SO2 is 1:1 so, we need to find first the moles SO2.
to get the moles of SO2 we are going to use the ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT
when P is the pressure = 1.1 atm
and V is the volume = 14.5 L
n is the moles' number (which we need to calculate)
R ideal gas constant = 0.0821
and T is the temperature in Kelvin = 12.5 + 273 = 285.5 K
so, by substitution:
1.1 * 14.5 L = n * 0.0821 * 285.5
∴ n = 1.1 * 14.5 / (0.0821*285.5)
= 0.68 moles SO2
∴ moles CaSO3 = 0.68 moles
so we can easily get the mass of CaSO3:
when mass = moles * molar mass
and we know that the molar mass of CaSO3= 40 + 32 + 16 * 3 = 120 g/mol
∴ mass = 0.68 moles* 120 g/mol = 81.6 g
Explanation:
Calcium is the element that has 2 valence electrons.
Answer:
<u>5 moles S x (36.02 g S/mole S) = 180.1 grams of S</u>
Explanation:
The periodic table has mass units for every element that can be correlated with the number of atoms of that element. The relationship is known as Avogadro's Number. This number, 6.02x
, is nicknamed the mole, which scientists found to be a lot more catchy, and easier to write than 6.02x
. <u>The mole is correlated to the atomic mass of that element.</u> The atomic mass of sulfur, S, is 36.02 AMU, atomic mass units. <u>But it can also be read as 36.02 grams/mole.</u>
<u></u>
<u>This means that 36.02 grams of S contains 1 mole (6.02x</u>
<u>) of S atoms</u>.
<u></u>
This relationship holds for all the elements. Zinc, Zn, has an atomic mass of 65.38 AMU, so it has a "molar mass" of 65.38 grams/mole. ^5.38 grams of Zn contains 1 mole of Zn atoms.
And so on.
5.0 moles of Sulfur would therefore contain:
(5.0 moles S)*(36.02 grams/mole S) = <u>180.1 grams of S</u>
Note how the units cancel to leaves just grams. The units are extremely helpful in mole calculations to insure the correct mathematical operation is done. To find the number of moles in 70 g of S, for example, we would write:
(70g S)/(36.02 grams S/mole S) = 1.94 moles of S. [<u>Note how the units cancel to leave just moles</u>]
