Karolina [17]3 years ago

Answer:

The  partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture is 296 mmHg.

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.

This relationship is due to the assumption that there are no attractive forces between the gases.

So, in this case, the total pressure is:

PT=Phelium + Pnitrogen + Poxygen

You know:

  • PT= 756 mmHg
  • Phelium= 122 mmHg
  • Pnitrogen= 338 mmHg
  • Poxygen= ?

Replacing:

756 mmHg= 122 mmHg + 338 mmHg + Poxygen

Solving:

756 mmHg - 122 mmHg - 338 mmHg = Poxygen

Poxygen= 296 mmHg

<u><em>The  partial pressure of oxygen in the mixture is 296 mmHg.</em></u>

Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5,730 years. It is used in "carbon dating" to determine the age of once living organisms. How much
Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

18 grams

Explanation:

Because 17,190 yrs divided by the amount of years it takes for a half-life to occur is 3. So 3 half life’s happen, so you divide 144/2 once, equaling 72. You divide 72/2 again (another half-life) and you get 36. You then calculate the third half life by dividing 36/2 which equals 18 grams.

Sliva [168]

Answer:

% (COOK)2H2O = 37.826 %

Explanation:

mix: (COOK)2H2O + Ca(OH)2 → CaC2O4 + H2O

∴ mass mix = 4.00 g

∴ mass (CaC2O4)H2O = 1.20 g

∴ Mw (COOK)2H2O = 184.24 g/mol

∴ Mw (CaC2O4)H2O = 146.12 g/mol

∴ r = mol (COOK)2H2O / mol (CaC2O4)H2O = 1

  • % (COOK)2H2O = (mass (COOK)2H2O / mass Mix) × 100

⇒ mass (COOK)2H2O = (1.20 g (CaC2O4)H2O)×(mol (CaC2O4)H2O / 146.12 g (CaC2O4)H2O)×(mol (COOK)2H2O/mol (CaC2O4)H2O)×(184.24 g (COOK)2H2O/mol (COOK)2H2O)

⇒ mass (COOK)2H2O = 1.513 g

⇒ % (COOK)2H2O = ( 1.513 g / 4 g )×100

⇒ % (COOK)2H2O = 37.826 %
