The reaction is           2 NO (g) <----> N2(g) + O2

partial pressures

Initial                                 37.30          0          0

Change                            -2p                +p        +p

Equilibrium                          37.30-p        p          p

Kp = pN2 X pO2 / (pNO)^2

2400 = p^2 /  (37.30-p)^2

3339096 - 179040p + 2400p^2 = p^2

2399p^2 + 3339096  -179040 p = 0

On solving

p = 36.55atm

Thus partial pressure of N2 and O2 = 36. 55 atm

A tank with volume of 2.4 cu ft is filled with Methane to a pressure of 1500 psia at 104 degrees F. Determine the molecular weig
Soloha48 [4]

Explanation:

It is known that equation for ideal gas is as follows.

               PV = nRT

The given data is as follows.

     Pressure, P = 1500 psia,     Temperature, T = 104^{o}F = 104 + 460 = 564 R

     Volume, V = 2.4 cubic ft,      R = 10.73 psia ft^{3}/lb mol R

Also, we know that number of moles is equal to mass divided by molar mass of the gas.

                n = \frac{mass}{\text{molar mass}}

            m = n \times W

                = 0.594 \times 16.04

                = 9.54 lb

Hence, molecular weight of the gas is 9.54 lb.

  • We will calculate the density as follows.

                d = \frac{PM}{RT}

                    = \frac{1500 \times 16.04}{10.73 \times 564}

                    = 3.975 lb/ft^{3}

  • Now, calculate the specific gravity of the gas as follows.

  Specific gravity relative to air = \frac{\text{density of methane}}{\text{density of air}}

                         = \frac{3.975 lb/ft^{3}}{0.0765 lb/ft^{3}}

                         = 51.96

Which statements correctly describe atmospheric pressure?
Shalnov [3]

Answers are:

2. It pushes on all objects that are on Earth’s surface.

3. It can be measured in atmospheres or kilopascals.

Barometric pressure (atmospheric pressure), is the pressure within the atmosphere of Earth

Atmospheric pressure decreases with increasing height, because there are fewer air molecules above a given object.

Barometer is an instrument used in meteorology to measure atmospheric pressure.

Atmospheric pressure (atm) is the force per unit area by the weight of air above that point.  

Kilopascal (kPa) is a metric system pressure unit and equals to 1000 force of newton per square meter.

Atmospheric pressure results from molecular collisions of atmospheric gases.

2CH2(g) + 50 (g) → 400/(g) + 2 H2O(g)
Nadusha1986 [10]

168.96 g of carbon dioxide (CO₂)

Explanation:

The chemical reaction representing the combustion of acetylene:

2 C₂H₂ (g) + 5 O₂ (g)→ 4 CO₂ (g) + 2 H₂O (g)

number of moles = mass / molecular weight

number of moles of acetylene (C₂H₂) = 50 / 26 = 1.92 moles

Taking in account the stoichiometry of the chemical reaction, we devise the following reasoning:

if       2 moles of acetylene (C₂H₂) produces 4 moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂)

then 1.92 moles of acetylene (C₂H₂) produces X moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂)

X = (1.92 × 4) / 2 = 3.84 moles of carbon dioxide (CO₂)

mass = number of moles × molecular weight

mass of carbon dioxide (CO₂) = 3.84 × 44 = 168.96 g
