What happens to the partial pressure of oxygen in a sample of air if the temperature is increased?

ludmilkaskok [199]

Air is mainly composed of N2 (78%), O2 (21%) and other trace gases. Now, the total pressure of air is the sum of the partial pressures of the constituent gases. The partial pressure of each gas, for example say O2, can be expressed as:

p(O2) = mole fraction of O2 * P(total, air) ----(1)

Thus, the partial pressure is directly proportional to the total pressure. If we consider a sealed container then, as the temperature of air increases so will its pressure. Based on equation (1) an increase in the pressure of air should also increase the partial pressure of oxygen.

Can someone help me with number 1 and 2 plz!

GalinKa [24]

Answer:

1) 0 N

2) 8 N

Explanation:

The net force is the sum of all of the forces acting on the object.

For question 1, we can see that there is a force of 5 N acting to the right and 5 N acting to the left. If we define the right to be positive and the left to be negative, then the net force equals:

Fnet = 5N - 5N = 0 N

Therefore, the net force in question 1 is 0 N.

For question 2, the process is very similar. We want to find the sum of the forces acting on the object. In this case, there are forces of 3 N and 5 N acting to the right.

Fnet = 3 N + 5 N = 8 N

Therefore, the net force in question 2 is 8 N.

Hope this helps!

How many atoms are there in 8.88 g Si?

Mariana [72]

Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 1.90 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si}}$

Explanation:

We are asked to find how many atoms are in 8.88 grams of silicon.

<h3>1. Grams to Moles </h3>

First, we convert grams to moles. We use the molar mass or the mass of 1 mole of a substance. These values are found on the Periodic Table as they are equal to the atomic masses, but the units are grams per mole instead of atomic mass units.

Look up silicon's molar mass.

Si: 28.085 g/mol

We will convert using dimensional analysis. Set up a conversion factor with the molar mass.

$\frac { 28.085 \ g \ Si}{1 \ mol \ Si}$

We are converting 8.88 grams of silicon to moles, so we multiply by this value.

$8.88 \ g \ Si *\frac { 28.085 \ g \ Si}{1 \ mol \ Si}$

Flip the fraction so the units of grams of silicon cancel.

$8.88 \ g \ Si *\frac{1 \ mol \ Si} { 28.085 \ g \ Si}$

$8.88 *\frac{1 \ mol \ Si} { 28.085 }$

$\frac {8.88} { 28.085 } \ mol \ Si$

$0.316183015845 \ mol \ Si$

<h3>2. Moles to Atoms </h3>

Next, we convert moles to atoms. We use Avogadro's Number or 6.022 × 10²³. This is the number of particles (atoms, molecules, formula units, etc.) in 1 mole of a substance. In this case, the particles are atoms of silicon.

Set up another conversion factor.

$\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si}{1 \ mol \ Si}$

Multiply by the number of moles we calculated.

$0.316183015845\ mol \ Si *\frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si}{1 \ mol \ Si}$

The units of moles of silicon cancel.

$0.316183015845 * \frac {6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si}{1}$

$0.316183015845 * {{6.022 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si}$

$1.90405412 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si$

<h3>3. Significant Figures</h3>

The original measurement of 8.88 grams has 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same.

For the number we calculated, that is the hundredth place. The 4 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 0 in the hundredth place.

$1.90 \times 10^{23} \ atoms \ Si$

<u>8.88 grams of silicon contains 1.90 ×10²³ atoms of silicon.</u>

Liquid Q is a polar solvent and liquid R is a nonpolar solvent. On the basis of this information, you would expect:

bearhunter [10]

4) is correct
This is because water is polar and it will mix with a polar solvent. A good rule for remembering the behavior of non-polar and polar compounds when it comes to being miscible is that "like dissolves like."
