Answer:

The correct answer is 0.020 atm.

Explanation:

Partial pressure is calculated by using the formula,

Partial pressure = Mole fraction × Total pressure

The partial pressure of oxygen in a mixture can be calculated by using the formula,  

Mole fraction of oxygen in mixture = Number of moles of oxygen / No. of moles of oxygen + No. of moles of Helium

(1 gg or gigagram is equal to 10⁹ grams)

= 2 × 10⁹/32 /2 × 10⁹/32 + 98 × 10⁹ / 4

= 2.54 × 10⁻³

Now the partial pressure of oxygen = Mole fraction of oxygen × Total pressure of oxygen

= 2.54 × 10⁻³ × 8.0 atm

= 0.02032 atm

= 0.020 atm

What is the total pressure of air in lungs of an individual with oxygen at 100. mmHg, nitrogen at 573 mmHg, carbon dioxide at 0.
ryzh [129]

Answer: The total pressure of air in lungs of an individual is 760.28 mm Hg

Explanation:

According to Dalton's law, the total pressure is the sum of individual pressures.

p_{total}=p_A+p_B+p_C...

Given : p_{total} =total pressure of gases = ?

p_{O_2} = partial pressure of oxygen = 100 mm Hg

p_{N_2} = partial pressure of nitrogen = 573 mm Hg

p_{CO_2} = partial pressure of Carbon dioxide = 0.053 atm = 40.28 mm Hg(1 atm = 760 mmHg)

p_{H_2O} = partial pressure of water vapor = 47 torr = 47 mm Hg  (1torr=1 mm Hg)

putting in the values we get:

p_{total}=(100+573+40.28+47)mmHg

p_{total}=760.28mmHg

Thus the total pressure of air in lungs of an individual is 760.28 mm Hg

If it requires 48.3 milliliters of 0.55 molar nitric acid to neutralize 15.0 milliliters of barium hydroxide, solve for the mola
Gemiola [76]
First you have to moles so multiply .0483L X .55M= .026565 Multiply moles by mole ratio which is 1/2, so the moles becomes .013283 now molarity=moles/volume; divide .013283/.015L=.885533M significant figures and you final answer is 0.89M
