According to Dalton's law of partial pressures, a mixture of gases inflict pressure in a direct proportion to their volume/mass etc. Therefore, since 79 percent of the air is composed of nitrogen and 21 percent of Oxygen, we multiply 101.3 kPa by 0.79 = 80.027 kPa by Nitrogen, 101.3 kPa by 0.21 = 21.273 kPa by Oxygen.
Good question According to my textbook it would be yes
Answer:
D. formation of zinc from zinc sulphide
Explanation:
A redox reaction could be explained as an artificial reaction in which electrons are moved between two reactants partaking in it. This substitution of electrons can be recognized by examining the variations in the oxidation states of the reacting classes. The generation of hydrogen fluoride is an illustration of a redox reaction. We can crack the reaction down to investigate the oxidation and loss of reactants.
1) Dalton stated that atom is matter that can not be divided, but it is proved that the atom can be divided into subatomic particles (electrons, protons and neutrons).
2) He stated that atoms of one element can not be changed into atoms of other elements, but now that is possible by nuclear reactions.
Today we still use his postulate: Atoms combine in the ratio of small whole numbers to form stable compounds, for example H₂O.
