space capsules operate with an oxygen content of about 34%. assuming a total pressure of 780 mm Hg in the space capsule, what is
1 answer:
265.2 mmHg is the partial pressure of oxygen in 780 mmHg of total pressure.
Explanation:
The partial pressure of a gas is defined as the individual pressure of the gas in total mixture. In an ideal gas all the constituent gases have partial pressure some of which will give total pressure of the gas.
The partial pressure of a gas is calculated by
total pressure x mole fraction of the gas.
Mole fraction of the oxygen present is 0.34 as it is 34% of the total gas.
= 0.34 is the mole fraction
Total pressure is given as 780 mm Hg
The partial pressure can be calculated using the above formula:
Putting the values in equation:
780 x 0.34
= 265.2 mm Hg is the partial pressure of oxygen.

The full solution can be found in the image attached. Graham's law was applied to the problem. The rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to its molar mass or vapour density. Molar mass= 2vapour density
The hybrid orbital of this molecule is . Hence, option C is correct.
Hybridization is defined as the concept of mixing two atomic orbitals to give rise to a new type of hybridized orbitals.
In this compound, a hybrid orbital makes I-O bonds. Due to
hybridization iodate should have tetrahedral geometry but because of the presence of lone pair of electrons the shape of
the ion is pyramidal.
The hybrid orbital of this molecule is . Hence, option C is correct.
