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.

\frac{34}{100} = 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 volume of a sample of <img src="https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=P_b" id="TexFormula1" title="P_b" alt="P_b" align="absmiddle" class=
murzikaleks [220]

Answer : The mass of sample is, 267.5 grams.

Explanation :

Density : It is defined as the mass of a substance contained per unit volume.

Formula used :

Density=\frac{Mass}{Volume}

Given:

Volume of Pb = 23.57cm^3

Density of Pb = 11.35g/cm^3

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get the mass of Pb.

11.35g/cm^3=\frac{Mass}{23.57cm^3}

Mass=267.5195g=267.5g

Therefore, the mass of sample is, 267.5 grams.

Which of the following is the best definition of radiation?
mafiozo [28]

Answer: Option (D) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When heat or energy is transferred through the space in the form of waves or through a material medium then it is know as radiation.

For example, when we take Sun bath then our body gets warm due to solar radiation.

For transfer of heat through radiation it is not necessary that the objects have to in contact with each other.

Thus, we can conclude that out of the given options, the transmission of heat without any contact.

How is a pure substance different from a mixture?
Sauron [17]
The answer is A.
Pure substance is either an element or a compound, which elements in compund is chemically combined together. They cannot be separated by physical methods such as filtration or evaporation. Compounds can only be separated by chemical methods, which include using electricity (electrolysis) or applying heat.
