Answer:

Option C. 13.5 atm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Pressure of Neon (Pₙₑ) = 4.1 atm

Pressure of Argon (Pₐᵣ) = 3.2 atm

Pressure of nitrogen (Pₙ₂) = 6.2 atm

Total pressure (Pₜ) =?

The total pressure in the container can be obtained by adding the pressure of the individual gases. This is illustrated below:

Pₜ = Pₙₑ + Pₐᵣ + Pₙ₂

Pₜ = 4.1 + 3.2 + 6.2

Pₜ = 13.5 atm

Therefore, the total pressure in the container is 13.5 atm

Choose a depiction of a gas sample containing equal molar amounts of xenon and argon as described by kinetic molecular theory. R

Answer:

On the attached picture.

Explanation:

Hello,

At first, it is important to remember that kinetic molecular theory help us understand how the molecules of a gas behave in terms of motion. In such a way, the relative velocity of a gas molecule has the following relationship with the gas' molar mass:

$V$ ∝ $\frac{1}{\sqrt{M} }$

That is, an inversely proportional relationship which allows us to infer that the bigger the molecule the slower it. In this manner, as argon is smaller than xenon, it will move faster.

Now, as the gases are in equal molar amounts and considering that argon moves faster, on the attached picture you will find the suitable depiction of the gas sample, since red dots (argon) have a larger tail than the blue dots (xenon).

Best regards.
