Answer:

70.8 mmHg

Explanation:

To find partial pressure of carbon dioxide we first find the mole fraction of carbon dioxide

n (carbon dioxide) = 5/44.01 g/mol = 0.11361 mol

n (Helium) = 3.75 g/4 g/mol = 0.9375 mol

The partial pressure of carbon dioxide will be the mole fraction of carbon dioxide multiplied by the total pressure

Partial pressure = 0.11361g/(0.11361g + 0.9375 g)* 655 mmHg

                          = 70.8 mmHg

A mixture of gases containing 0.20 mol of SO2 and 0.20 mol of O2 in a 4.0 L flask reacts to form SO3. If the temperature is 25ºC
diamong [38]

Answer : The pressure in the flask after reaction complete is, 2.4 atm

Explanation :

To calculate the pressure in the flask after reaction is complete we are using ideal gas equation.

PV=n_TRT\\\\P=(n_1+n_2)\times \frac{RT}{V}

where,

P = final pressure in the flask = ?

R = gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = temperature = 25^oC=273+25=298K

V = volume = 4.0 L

n_1 = moles of SO_2 = 0.20 mol

n_2 = moles of O_2 = 0.20 mol

Now put all the given values in the above expression, we get:

P=(0.20+0.20)mol\times \frac{(0.0821L.atm/mol.K)\times (298K)}{4.0L}

P=2.4atm

Thus, the pressure in the flask after reaction complete is, 2.4 atm

2. Why does the CDC recommend hand sanitizers with at least 60% alcohol?! I
choli [55]

Answer:

Here's it:

Explanation:

Germs are everywhere! They can get onto hands and items we touch during daily activities and make us sick. Cleaning hands at key times with soap and water or hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol is one of the most important steps you can take to avoid getting sick and spreading germs to those around you.

There are important differences between washing hands with soap and water and using hand sanitizer. Soap and water work to remove all types of germs from hands, while sanitizer acts by killing certain germs on the skin. Although alcohol-based hand sanitizers can quickly reduce the number of germs in many situations, they should be used in the right situations.
