Answer:

The total air pressure at the top of the highest peak in the world is 253.5 torr

Explanation:

The partial pressures of the gases present at the top of Mount Everest are;

Nitrogen, N₂ = 201.0 torr

Oxygen, O₂ = 50.0 torr

Argon, Ar = 2.0 torr

Carbon dioxide, CO₂ = 0.5 torr

By Dalton's law of partial pressure, the total pressure that a mixture of gases exerts is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases

Mathematically, the law can be expressed as follows;

Total pressure, P = ∑P_i = P₁ + P₂ + · · ·

From which we have;

The total air pressure at the top of the highest peak in the world, Mount Everest, P_{Total Mont Everest} = The sum of the partial pressures of N₂, O₂, Ar, and CO₂

P_{Total Mont Everest} = 201.0 torr + 50.0 torr + 2.0 torr + 0.5 torr = 253.5 torr

P_{Total Mont Everest} = 253.5 torr = 0.33355263 atmosphere

Therefore, the total air pressure at the top of the highest peak in the world,  P_{Total Mont Everest} = 253.5 torr

which of the following testable questions will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties?
Usimov [2.4K]

The testable question which will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties is valency

<h3>What is the valency?</h3>

In essence, how many electrons are present in their outermost shell.

Valency and Groups in the periodic table, elements are arranged in order of their atomic numbers and hence, the periodic table is a systematic arrangement of elements in an array of vertical columns called Groups and horizontal arrays called Periods.

  • Complete question here:

which of the following testable questions will provide evidence that elements in the same group have similar properties A. Valency B. Orbit C. Group D. Period

Since, the reactive capacities of elements is dependent on the number of electrons on its outermost shell, we can conclude on this note that, Elements in the same group have similar properties.
