Answer:

P_{He}=9.06torr

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, we can identify the solution to this problem via the Dalton's rule because the partial pressure of helium is given by:

P_{He}=x_{He}P_T

Whereas the mole fraction of helium is calculated by firstly obtaining the moles and then the mole fraction:

n_{He}=8.00g\frac{1mol}{4.00g}=2.00mol\\\\ x_{He}=\frac{n_{He}}{n_{He}+n_{Ar}} \\\\ x_{He}=\frac{2.00mol}{2.00mol+8.60mol}\\\\x_{He}=0.189

Then, we calculate the partial pressure as shown below:

P_{He}=0.189 *48.0torr\\\\P_{He}=9.06torr

Best regards!

The half-life of radium-226 is 1590 years. (a) A sample of radium-226 has a mass of 50 mg. Find a formula for the mass of the sa
Maksim231197 [3]

Answer:

Explanation:

a )

m = m₀ e^{-\lambda t

m is mass after time t . original mass is m₀ , λ is disintegration constant

λ = .693 / half life

= .693 / 1590

= .0004358

m = m₀ e^{- 0.0004358 t}

b )

m = 50 x e^{-.0004358\times 500}

= 40.21 mg .

c )

40 = 50 e^{-.0004358t

.8 = e^{-.0004358t

e^{.0004358t = 1.25

.0004358 t = .22314

t = 512 years .

If 4000 g of Fe2O3 reacts, how many moles of CO are needed?<br> (add work)
7nadin3 [17]

Answer:

75.15 mol.

Explanation:

  • Firstly, we need to write the balanced equation of the reaction:

<em>Fe₂O₃ + 3CO → 2Fe + 3CO₂.</em>

It is clear that 1.0 mole of Fe₂O₃ reacts with 3.0 moles of CO to produce 2.0 moles of Fe and 3.0 moles of CO₂.

∴ Fe₂O₃ reacts with CO with (1: 3) molar ratio.

  • we need to calculate the no. of moles of (4000 g) of Fe₂O₃:

<em>no. of moles of Fe₂O₃ = mass/molar mass</em> = (4000 g)/(159.69 g/mol) = <em>25.05 mol.</em>

<u>Using cross multiplication:</u>

1.0 mole of Fe₂O₃ needs → 3.0 moles of CO,

∴ 25.05 mole of Fe₂O₃ needs → ??? moles of CO.

<em>∴ The no. of moles of CO needed</em> = (3.0 mol)(25.05 mol)/(1.0 mol) =<em> 75.15 mol.</em>
