Hello there.
An atom that has the same amount of atoms of each element on both sides of the reaction obeys what law
<span>law of conservation of mass</span>
The properties of elements are determined by their group/family. Usually, its the area they are located on the periodic table. The valence electrons also determine reactivity, etc.
Answer:
The pressure of O₂ is 0.8 atm.
Explanation:
The pressure exerted by a particular gas in a mixture is known as its partial pressure. So, Dalton's law states that the total pressure of a gas mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures that each gas would exert if it were alone:
PT = PA + PB
This relationship is due to the assumption that there are no attractive forces between the gases.
In this case:
PT=Pnitrogen + Pcarbon dioxide + Pother gases
Being:
- Pnitrogen: 593.4 mmHg
- Pcarbon dioxide: 3 mmHg
- Pother gases: 7.1 mmHg
and replacing:
PT= 593.4 mmHg + 3 mmHg + 7.1 mmHg
you get:
PT= 603.5 mmHg
Being 760 mmHg= 1 atm, you get:
PT= 603.5 mmHg= 0.8 atm
<u><em>The pressure of O₂ is 0.8 atm.</em></u>
