Answer:
the mole fraction of Gas B is xB= 0.612 (61.2%)
Explanation:
Assuming ideal gas behaviour of A and B, then
pA*V=nA*R*T
pB*V=nB*R*T
where
V= volume = 10 L
T= temperature= 25°C= 298 K
pA and pB= partial pressures of A and B respectively = 5 atm and 7.89 atm
R= ideal gas constant = 0.082 atm*L/(mol*K)
therefore
nA= (pA*V)/(R*T) = 5 atm* 10 L /(0.082 atm*L/(mol*K) * 298 K) = 2.04 mole
nB= (pB*V)/(R*T) = 7.89 atm* 10 L /(0.082 atm*L/(mol*K) * 298 K) = 3.22 mole
therefore the total number of moles is
n = nA +nB= 2.04 mole + 3.22 mole = 5.26 mole
the mole fraction of Gas B is then
xB= nB/n= 3.22 mole/5.26 mole = 0.612
xB= 0.612
Note
another way to obtain it is through Dalton's law
P=pB*xB , P = pA+pB → xB = pB/(pA+pB) = 7.69 atm/( 5 atm + 7.89 atm) = 0.612
It deteriorates. Definitely more than when you started.
Answer:
0.779 moles.
Explanation:
Mass of chlorine/number of moles = molar mass of chlorine.
Molar mass of chlorine = (35.5*2)
= 71 g/mol.
Mass = 55.3 g of chlorine.
Number of moles = 55.3/71
= 0.779 moles.
Answer:
Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%
Explanation:
Equation of the reaction producing Cu(NO₃) is given below:
Cu(s)+ 4HNO₃(aq) ---> Cu(NO₃)(aq) + 2NO₂(g) + 2H₂O(l)
From the equation of reaction, 1 mole of Cu(NO₃) is produced from 1 mole of copper. Therefore, 0.010 moles of Cu(NO₃) will be produced from 0.010 mole of copper.
Molar mass of copper = 64 g/mol
mass of copper = number of moles * molar mass
mass of copper = 0.01 mol * 64 g/mol = 0.64 g
Percentage by mass of copper in the 2.00 g sample = (0.64/2.00) * 100%
Percentage mass of copper in the sample = 32%
