Answer:

False.

Explanation:

<u>The given statement asserts a false claim because the equator is the region that receives maximum sunlight</u>. The equator is placed right below the sun and thus, it tends to receive the maximum radiation across the year. While the poles are the coldest regions of the Earth because due to Earth's titled axis, they receive very few sun rays for a certain time of the year. Thus, <u>if we move away from the equator, we are likely to receive less radiation from the sun as the sun keeps getting farther while moving away from the equator</u>.

Answer : The partial pressure of helium is, $1.815\times 10^4KPa$

Solution : Given,

Molar mass of $O_2$ = 32 g/mole

Molar mass of helium = 4 g/mole

Molar mass of $N_2$ = 28 g/mole

Total pressure of gas = $2.07\times 10^4KPa$

As we are given gases in percent, that means 10 g of oxygen gas, 50 g of helium gas and 40 g of nitrogen gas present in 100 g of mixture.

First we have to calculate the moles of oxygen, helium and nitrogen gas.

$\text{Moles of }O_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }O_2}{\text{Molar mass of }O_2}=\frac{10g}{32g/mole}=0.3125moles$

$\text{Moles of }He=\frac{\text{Mass of }He}{\text{Molar mass of }He}=\frac{50g}{4g/mole}=12.5moles$

$\text{Moles of }N_2=\frac{\text{Mass of }N_2}{\text{Molar mass of }N_2}=\frac{40g}{28g/mole}=1.428moles$

Now we have to calculate the total number of moles of gas mixture.

$\text{Total number of moles of gas}=\text{Moles of oxygen gas}+\text{Mole of helium gas}+\text{Moles of nitrogen gas}$

$\text{Total number of moles of gas}=0.3125+12.5+1.428=14.24moles$

Now we have to calculate the moles fraction of helium gas.

$\text{Mole fraction of He gas}=\frac{\text{Moles of He gas}}{\text{Total number of moles of gas}}=\frac{12.5}{14.25}=0.877$

Now we have to calculate the partial pressure of helium.

$p_{He}=X_{He}\times P_T$

where,

$p_{He}$ = partial pressure of helium

$P_T$ = total pressure

$X_{He}$ = mole fraction of helium

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get

$p_{He}=(0.877)\times (2.07\times 10^4KPa)=1.815\times 10^4KPa$

Therefore, the partial pressure of helium is, $1.815\times 10^4KPa$
