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
Yes hydrogen is a non metal
The balanced equation for the above reaction is as follows;
Mg + 2HCl ---> MgCl₂ + H₂
stoichiometry of HCl to MgCl₂ is 2:1
we have been told that Mg is in excess therefore HCl is the limiting reactant
number of HCl moles reacted - 0.100 mol/L x 0.0256 L = 0.00256 mol
according to molar ratio, number of MgCl₂ moles formed - 0.00256/2
Therefore number of MgCl₂ moles formed - 0.00128 mol
mass of MgCl formed - 0.00128 mol x 95.20 g/mol = 0.122 g
