There are 2 atoms in NaCl. This is because there is 1 atom of Na (sodium) and 1 atom of Cl (chlorine) in each NaCl molecule. Elements by themselves do not have a "number of atoms"- if you're talking about the atomic number, it's the number of protons (or electrons in a neutral atom) of an element.
<em>A chemistry student needs 55.0 g of carbon tetrachloride for an experiment. By consulting the CRC Handbook of Chemistry and Physics, the student discovers that the density of carbon tetrachloride is 1.59 g/cm³. Calculate the volume of carbon tetrachloride the student should pour out. Be sure your answer has the correct number of significant digits.</em>
Step 1: Given data
Mass of carbon tetrachloride (m): 55.0 g
Density of carbon tetrachloride (ρ): 1.59 g/cm³
Step 2: Calculate the required volume of carbon tetrachloride
Density is an intrinsic property of matter. It can be calculated as the quotient between the mass of the sample and its volume.
ρ = m/V
V = m/ρ
V = 55.0 g/(1.59 g/cm³)
V = 34.6 cm³
The chemistry student should pour 34.6 cm³ of carbon tetrachloride.
The pressures given are the partical pressures of the two gases.
The law of Dalton or of the partial pressures states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the pressures of all the gases.
So, in this case:
Total pressure = pressure of nitrogen + pressure of carbon dioxyde.
Of course both terms must be in the same units.
i have found that the pressures for this problem are:
