A gas mixture contains oxygen, nitrogen, and carbon dioxide. It has a pressure of 250 mmHg. If the pressure of oxygen is 50 mmHg

and the pressure of nitrogen is 175 mmHg then what is the pressure for carbon dioxide?

Answer:

P_{CO_2}=25mmHg

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the Dalton's law, which explains that the total pressure of a gaseous system equals the sum of the partial pressures of the gases composing, for the gaseous mixture composed by oxygen, nitrogen and carbon dioxide it would be possible to write:

P_{tot}=P_{N_2}+P_{O_2}+P_{CO_2}

Now, given the pressure of the system and those of oxygen and nitrogen, we calculate that of carbon dioxide as shown below:

P_{CO_2}=P_{tot}-P_{N_2}-P_{O_2}\\\\P_{CO_2}=250mmHg-50mmHg-175mmHg\\\\P_{CO_2}=25mmHg

Best regards!

a solution is an acid or base and it doesn't react with metal. is it pH more likely to be 4 or 9? explain your answer
coldgirl [10]
It is more likely 9. pH 4 is acidic and pH 9 is basic, and as the pH of a substance gets closer to 0 or 14, the substance becomes more corrosive or reactive. As 4 is closer to 0 than 9 is to 14, there is a much higher chance the solution has a pH of 9, because pH 4 is less neutral and therefore more corrosive/reactive than pH 9.

Why do alligators need a warm climate?
Reptile [31]
<span>The answer is B.They cannot produce enough heat to keep their bodies warm.

In order to survive, the alligators rely on warm weather, and they are most active when the environment is 82-92 degrees Fahrenheit. They can survive below or above this temperature range but they may spend that time struggling to stay warm or stay cool.

True or false the si in sih4 does not follow the octet rule because hydrogen is in an unusual oxidation stat
ExtremeBDS [4]
The statement is true. The octet rule refers to the general rule of thumb wherein atoms of main-group elements tend to bond with other atoms in such a way that each atom possesses eight electrons (octet) in their valence shell. They tend to form the same electronic configuration as the noble gases. However, there are some exceptions to this rule. One of which is silane, SiH₄. A hydrogen atom only has 1 valence electron and needs another electron to complete its energy level. This is unlike other atoms, for example, carbon which has 4 valence electrons and needs to form 4 covalent bonds to fill its energy levels. Thus, 4 hydrogen atoms need only 4 more electrons. This is given by the silicon atom which has 4 valence electrons. Therefore, when a silicon atom is bonded to 4 hydrogen atoms, the resulting molecule, SiH₄, is a stable one.
