A sample of gas isolated from unrefined petroleum contains 90.0% CH4, 8.9% C2H6, and 1.1% C3H8 at a total pressure of 3.34 atm.

Answer:

The partial pressure of each component of this gas is:

  • Partial pressure of methane= 3.006 atm
  • Partial pressure of ethane=  0.29726 atm
  • Partial pressure of propane= 0.03674 atm

Explanation:

The partial pressure of a gas in a mixture is the pressure that gas would exert if it were alone in the container.

On the other hand, the mole fraction is a dimensionless quantity that expresses the ratio of the number of moles of a component with the number of moles of all the components present.

Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures states that the partial pressure of each gas is equal to the total pressure of the gas mixture multiplied by the mole fraction of that gas.

The partial pressures then, can be calculated by multiplication of the percents by the total pressure.

So, the partial pressure of each component of this gas is: :

  • Partial pressure of methane= \frac{90}{100} *3.34 atm=0.9*3.34 atm

<u><em>Partial pressure of methane= 3.006 atm</em></u>

  • Partial pressure of ethane= \frac{8.9}{100} *3.34 atm=0.089*3.34 atm

<u><em>Partial pressure of ethane=  0.29726 atm</em></u>

  • Partial pressure of propane= \frac{1.1}{100} *3.34 atm=0.011*3.34 atm

<u><em>Partial pressure of propane= 0.03674 atm</em></u>

Explain why a steel object continues to rust even after its outer layers have corroded.
Aliun [14]

Answer:

Explanation:

During that process of being exposed to air and water while being left outside or in the elements for an extended period of time, a variety of different types of rusts can form, but the most common form is Fe2O3. Rust only forms on the outside of a metal surface because it requires exposure of oxygen and water to rust.

If a particular ore contains 58.6 % calcium phosphate, what minimum mass of the ore must be processed to obtain 1.00 kg of phosp
rjkz [21]
Answer is: mass of the ore is 8.54kg.<span>

</span>ω(Ca₃(PO₄)₂ - calcium phosphate) = 58.6% ÷ 100% = 0.586.
m(P) = 1.00 kg · 1000 g/kg.
m(P) = 1000 g.
In one molecule of calcium phosphate there are two phosphorus atoms:
M(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 310.18 g/mol.
M(P) = 30.97 g/mol.
For one kilogram of phosphorus, we need:
M(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : 2M(P) = m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : m(P).
310.18 g/mol : 61.94 g/mol = m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : 1000 g.
m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) = 5007.75 g ÷ 1000 g/kg = 5.007 kg.
Mass of ore find from proportion:
m(Ca₃(PO₄)₂) : m(ore) = 56% : 100%.
m(ore) = 100% · 5.007 kg ÷ 58.6%.
m(ore) = 8.54kg.

A 0.529-g sample of gas occupies 125 ml at 60. cm of hg and 25°c. what is the molar mass of the gas?
Llana [10]

<span>Let's </span>assume that the gas has ideal gas behavior. <span>
Then we can use ideal gas formula,
PV = nRT<span>

</span><span>Where, P is the pressure of the gas (Pa), V is the volume of the gas (m³), n is the number of moles of gas (mol), R is the universal gas constant ( 8.314 J mol</span></span>⁻¹ K⁻¹) and T is temperature in Kelvin.<span>
<span>
</span>P = 60 cm Hg = 79993.4 Pa
V = </span>125  mL = 125 x 10⁻⁶ m³

n = ?

<span> R = 8.314 J mol</span>⁻¹ K⁻¹<span>
T = 25 °C = 298 K
<span>
By substitution,
</span></span>79993.4 Pa<span> x </span>125 x 10⁻⁶ m³ = n x 8.314 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹ x 298 K<span>
                                          n = 4.0359 x 10</span>⁻³ mol

<span>
Hence, moles of the gas</span> = 4.0359 x 10⁻³ mol<span>

Moles = mass / molar mass

</span>Mass of the gas  = 0.529 g 

<span>Molar mass of the gas</span> = mass / number of moles<span>
                                    = </span>0.529 g / 4.0359 x 10⁻³ mol<span>
<span>                                    = </span>131.07 g mol</span>⁻¹<span>

Hence, the molar mass of the given gas is </span>131.07 g mol⁻¹

Realiza los cálculos para determinar la cantidad de KOH 90%, que se necesita para preparar 100 ml de solución 1N.
attashe74 [19]

Answer:

6.23 KOH 90% son necesarios

Explanation:

Una solución 1N de KOH requiere 1equivalente (En KOH, 1eq = 1mol) por cada litro de solución.

Para responder esta pregunta se requiere hallar los equivalentes = Moles de KOH para preparar 100mL = 0.100L de una solución 1N. Haciendo uso de la masa molar de KOH y del porcentaje de pureza del KOH se pueden calcular los gramos requeridos para preparar la solución así:

<em>Equivalentes KOH:</em>

0.100L * (1eq / L) = 0.100eq = 0.100moles

<em>Gramos KOH -Masa molar: 56.1056g/mol-:</em>

0.100moles * (56.1056g/mol) = 5.61 KOH se requieren

<em>KOH 90%:</em>

5.61g KOH * (100g KOH 90% / 90g KOH) =

<h3>6.23 KOH 90% son necesarios</h3>
