Explanation:
Elements in the same group have same number of valence electrons. And we know, the elements which have same number of valence electrons, have similar physical and chemical properties. Hence, the elements in the same group have similar physical and chemical properties.
Answer:H2=11.4g
CH4=28.6g
Explanation:The complete combustion of the two gases can be represented by a balanced reaction below
1. CH4 +2O2___CO2+2H2O
2.2H2+O2___2H2O
Combining the two we have CH4 +2H2+3O2___
CO2+4H2O
Since the mixture contains 40gof CH4 and 2, therefore 20g of CH4 and 8g of H2 combines.
Calculated from their molecular Mass i.e CH4 12+4×2)=20 and 2H2= 2×2×2=8g
Mass of CH4=20/28×40=28.6g
2H2=8/28×40=11.4g
Explanation:
The given data is as follows.
Pressure (P) = 760 torr = 1 atm
Volume (V) =
= 0.720 L
Temperature (T) =
= (25 + 273) K = 298 K
Using ideal gas equation, we will calculate the number of moles as follows.
PV = nRT
Total atoms present (n) =
=
= 0.0294 mol
Let us assume that there are x mol of Ar and y mol of Xe.
Hence, total number of moles will be as follows.
x + y = 0.0294
Also, 40x + 131y = 2.966
x = 0.0097 mol
y = (0.0294 - 0.0097)
= 0.0197 mol
Therefore, mole fraction will be calculated as follows.
Mol fraction of Xe =
= 
= 0.67
Therefore, the mole fraction of Xe is 0.67.
