<span>The partial pressure contributed to the overall pressure is proportional to the number of moles of gas particles. Both Neon and Argon are noble gases so there's just 1 atom per molecule. So let's determine how many moles of each we have:
Atomic weight neon = 20.1797
Atomic weight argon = 39.948
Moles neon = 10.0 g / 20.1797 g/mol = 0.495547506 mol
Moles argon = 10.0 g / 39.948 g/mol = 0.250325423 mol
So there's a total of 0.495547506 + 0.250325423 = 0.745872929 moles of gas particles. And for neon, it contributes 0.495547506/0.745872929 = 0.664385965 = 66.4385965% of them, so it contributes 66.4385965% of the total pressure. Which is 66.4385965% * 1.6 atm = 1.063017544 atm.
Rounding to 3 significant figures gives 1.06 atm, or 66.4% of the total pressure.</span>
Answer:
Oxygen supports combustion so a good method of testing for oxygen is to take a glowing splint and place it in a sample of gas, if it re-ignites the gas is oxygen. This is a simple but effective test for oxygen.
Explanation:
mass number because atomic number = number of protons and protons+neutrons=mass number
In scientific notation", that number would be written as
6.81 x 10⁻⁴ .
Answer:
Explanation:
All compounds are molecules, but not all molecules are compounds. That is because a molecule can be made up of two atoms of the same kind, as when two oxygen atoms bind together to make an oxygen molecule. However, all compounds are made up of two or more different types of atoms.
