Answer:

The partial pressure of neon in the vessel was 239 torr.

Explanation:

In all cases involving gas mixtures, the total gas pressure is related to the partial pressures, that is, the pressures of the individual gaseous components of the mixture. Put simply, the partial pressure of a gas is the pressure it exerts on a mixture of gases.

Dalton's law states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone. Then:

PT= P1 + P2 + P3 + P4…+ Pn

where n is the amount of gases present in the mixture.

In this case:

PT=PN₂ + PAr + PHe + PNe

where:

  • PT= 987 torr
  • PN₂= 44 torr
  • PAr= 486 torr
  • PHe= 218 torr
  • PNe= ?

Replacing:

987 torr= 44 torr + 486 torr + 218 torr + PNe

Solving:

987 torr= 748 torr + PNe

PNe= 987 torr - 748 torr

PNe= 239 torr

<u><em>The partial pressure of neon in the vessel was 239 torr.</em></u>

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer : The partial pressure of N_2,H_2\text{ and }NH_3 at equilibrium are, 1.133, 2.009, 0.574 bar respectively. The total pressure at equilibrium is, 3.716 bar

Solution :  Given,

Initial pressure of N_2 = 1.42 bar

Initial pressure of H_2 = 2.87 bar

K_p = 0.036

The given equilibrium reaction is,

                              N_2(g)+H_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NH_3(g)

Initially                   1.42      2.87             0

At equilibrium    (1.42-x)  (2.87-3x)     2x

The expression of K_p will be,

K_p=\frac{(p_{NH_3})^2}{(p_{N_2})(p_{H_2})^3}

Now put all the values of partial pressure, we get

0.036=\frac{(2x)^2}{(1.42-x)\times (2.87-3x)^3}

By solving the term x, we get

x=0.287\text{ and }3.889

From the values of 'x' we conclude that, x = 3.889 can not more than initial partial pressures. So, the value of 'x' which is equal to 3.889 is not consider.

Thus, the partial pressure of NH_3 at equilibrium = 2x = 2 × 0.287 = 0.574 bar

The partial pressure of N_2 at equilibrium = (1.42-x) = (1.42-0.287) = 1.133 bar

The partial pressure of H_2 at equilibrium = (2.87-3x) = [2.87-3(0.287)] = 2.009 bar

The total pressure at equilibrium = Partial pressure of N_2 + Partial pressure of H_2 + Partial pressure of NH_3

The total pressure at equilibrium = 1.133 + 2.009 + 0.574 = 3.716 bar
