A breathing mixture used by deep-sea divers contains helium, oxygen, and carbon dioxide. What is the partial pressure of oxygen

at 101.4kPa if P(He) = 68.7kPa and P(CO2) = 1.4kPa?

Answer is: pressure of oxygen is 31,3 kPa.
The total pressure<span> of an ideal gas mixture is the sum of the </span>partial pressures<span> of the gases in the mixture.
p(mixture) = p(helium) + p(oxygen) + p(carbon dioxide).
p(oxygen) = p(mixture) - (p(helium) + p(carbon dioxide)).
p(oxygen) = 101,4 kPa - (68,7 kPa + 1,4 kPa).
p(oxygen) = 101,4 kPa - 70,1 kPa.
p(oxygen) = 31,3 kPa.

176.0 \; \text{kJ} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1}

As long as the equation in question can be expressed as the sum of the three equations with known enthalpy change, its \Delta H can be determined with the Hess's Law. The key is to find the appropriate coefficient for each of the given equations.

Let the three equations with \Delta H given be denoted as (1), (2), (3), and the last equation (4). Let a, b, and c be letters such that a \times (1) + b \times (2) + c \times (3) = (4). This relationship shall hold for all chemicals involved.

There are three unknowns; it would thus take at least three equations to find their values. Species present on both sides of the equation would cancel out. Thus, let coefficients on the reactant side be positive and those on the product side be negative, such that duplicates would cancel out arithmetically. For instance, 3 + (-1) = 2 shall resemble the number of \text{H}_2 left on the product side when the second equation is directly added to the third. Similarly

  • \text{NH}_4 \text{Cl} \; (s): -2 \; a = 1
  • \text{NH}_3\; (g): -2 \; b = -1
  • \text{HCl} \; (g): 2 \; c = -1

Thus

a = -1/2\\b = 1/2\\c = -1/2 and

-\frac{1}{2} \times (1) + \frac{1}{2} \times (2) - \frac{1}{2} \times (3)= (4)

Verify this conclusion against a fourth species involved- \text{N}_2 \; (g) for instance. Nitrogen isn't present in the net equation. The sum of its coefficient shall, therefore, be zero.

a + b = -1/2 + 1/2 = 0

Apply the Hess's Law based on the coefficients to find the enthalpy change of the last equation.

\Delta H _{(4)} = -\frac{1}{2} \; \Delta H _{(1)} + \frac{1}{2} \; \Delta H _{(2)} - \frac{1}{2} \; \Delta H _{(3)}\\\phantom{\Delta H _{(4)}} = -\frac{1}{2} \times (-628.9)+ \frac{1}{2} \times (-92.2) - \frac{1}{2} \times (184.7) \\\phantom{\Delta H _{(4)}} = 176.0 \; \text{kJ} \cdot \text{mol}^{-1}

How do you convert between the volume of a gas at STP and the number of moles of the gas?
Naya [18.7K]
Standard temperature and pressure (STP) means a temperature of 0°c and a pressure of 1 atmosphere (atm). The molar gas volume is used to convert between the number of moles of a gas and the volume of the gas at STP. One mole of a gas occupies a volume of 22400 cm³ or 22.4 liters at STP according to the molar gas volume.

Carvone is a substance that occurs in two forms having different arrangements of the atoms but the same molecular formula (c10h1
Korvikt [17]

The molecular mass of Carvone is calculated as;

                          =  12 (C)₁₀  +  1.008 (H)₁₄  +  16 (O)

                          =  120  +  14.112  +  16

                          =  150.112

%age of Carbon;

                          =  (120 ÷ 150.112) × 100

                          =  79.94 %

%age of Hydrogen;

                          =  (14.112 ÷ 150.112) × 100

                          =  9.40 %

%age of Oxygen;

                          =  (16 ÷ 150.112) × 100

                          =  10.65 %

How does density relate to the cold and warm air masses?
Amanda [17]
Warmer  air   is   less  dense  than  cold air.As  air  warm  it  rises  while  the  cold  air  sink. Warmer  air  masses forces the  cooler  air to  move  which  causes  wind.  These  is  illustrated  when  you  open  a hot oven the  hotter  air  inside  the  oven  rises  into  cooler  air  outside  the  oven.
