Answer:

170 g

Explanation:

w/w% concentration = mass of solute/ mass of solution * 100

mass of solute = x

mass of solution = 200 g

w/w% concentration =  15 % by mass

15 = x/200 * 100

15 = 100x/200

200 * 15 = 100x

x = 200 * 15/100

x = 2 * 15

x = 30g

But mass of solution = mass of solute + mass of solvent

mass of solute = 30g

mass of solvent = mass of solution  - mass of solute

mass of solvent = 200 g - 30 g

mass of solvent = 170 g

Hello!

<span>We have the following statement data:
</span>
Data:
P_{Total} = 800 mmHg
P\% N_{2} = 60\%
P\% O_{2} = 40\%
P_{partial} = ? (mmHg)

<span>As the percentage is the mole fraction multiplied by 100:

</span>P =  X_{ O_{2} }*100

<span>The mole fraction will be the percentage divided by 100, thus:
</span><span>What is the partial pressure of oxygen in this mixture? 
</span>
X_{ O_{2} }  =  \frac{P}{100}
X_{ O_{2}} =  \frac{40}{100}
\boxed{X_{ O_{2}} = 0.4}


<span>To calculate the partial pressure of the oxygen gas, it is enough to use the formula that involves the pressures (total and partial) and the fraction in quantity of matter:
</span>
In relation to O_{2} :

\frac{P O_{2} }{P_{total}} = X_O_{2}
\frac{P O_{2} }{800} = 0.4
P_O_{2} = 0.4*800
\boxed{\boxed{P_O_{2} = 320\:mmHg}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark
