The mass fractions of a mixture of gases are 15 percent nitrogen, 5 percent helium, 60 percent methane, and 20 percent ethane wi

th a total mixture molecular weight of 16.12 kg/kmole. Determine the mole fraction of each constituent, the partial pressure of each constituent when the mixture pressure is 1200 kPa and the apparent specific heats of the mixture when the mixture is at room temperature.

Answer:

Explanation:

mass fraction N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : 15 : 5 : 60 : 20

mole fraction  N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : 15/28 : 5/4 : 60/16 : 20/30

mole fraction  N₂ : He : CH₄ : C₂H₆ : : .5357  : 1.25 : 3.75 : .67

Total mole fractions = .5357 + 1.25 + 3.75 + 0.67 = 6.2057

mole fraction of N₂ =  .5357 / 6.2057 = .0877

mole fraction of He = 1.25 / 6.2057 = .20

mole fraction of CH₄ = 3.75 / 6.2057 = .6043

mole fraction of C₂H₆ = .67 / 6.2057 = .108

Partial pressure = total pressure x mole fraction

Partial pressure of N₂ = 1200 kPa  x .0877 = 105.24 kPa

Partial pressure of He = 1200 kPa  x .20  = 240 kPa

Partial pressure of CH₄ = 1200 kPa  x  .6043  = 725.16 kPa

Partial pressure of C₂H₆ = 1200 kPa  x .108    = 129.6 kPa

Calculate the number of atoms in 5 moles H₂O.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

90.35 × 10²³ atoms

Solution:

1 molecules of H20 contains 3 atoms,.

And we know that one mole of any molecule contains 6.023 × 10²³ atoms from Avogadro's number,

hence 5 moles of H20 will contain = 5× 6.023 × 10²³ × 3 atoms = 90.35 × 10²³ atoms!

Which of the following acids should be used to prepare a buffer with a pH of 4.5?A. HOC6H4OCOOH, Ka = 1.0 x 10^-3B. C6H4(COOH)2,
ioda

Answer:

C. CH3COOH, Ka = 1.8 E-5

Explanation:

analyzing the pKa of the given acids:

∴ pKa = - Log Ka

A. pKa = - Log (1.0 E-3 ) = 3

B. pKa = - Log (2.9 E-4) = 3.54

C. pKa = - Log (1.8 E-5) = 4.745

D. pKa = - Log (4.0 E-6) = 5.397

E. pKa = - Log (2.3 E-9) = 8.638

We choose the (C) acid since its pKa close to the expected pH.

⇒ For a buffer solution formed from an acid and its respective salt, we have the equation Henderson-Hausselbach (H-H):

  • pH = pKa + Log ([CH3COO-]/[CH3COOH])

∴ pH = 4.5

∴ pKa = 4.745

⇒ 4.5 = 4.745 + Log ([CH3COO-]/[CH3COOH])

⇒ - 0.245 = Log ([CH3COO-]/[CH3COOH])

⇒ 0.5692 = [CH3COO-]/[CH3COOH]

∴ Ka = 1.8 E-5 = ([H3O+].[CH3COO-])/[CH3COOH]

⇒ 1.8 E-5 = [H3O+](0.5692)

⇒ [H3O+] = 3.1623 E-5 M

⇒ pH = - Log ( 3.1623 E-5 ) = 4.5

Which is a postulate of the kinetic-molecular theory?
oee [108]
An increase in the number of gas particles in the container increases the frequency of collisions with the walls and therefore the pressure of the gas. The last postulate of the kinetic molecular theory states that the average kinetic energy of a gas particle depends only on the temperature of the gas.
