Answer:
Mole fraction O₂= 0.43
Explanation:
Mole fraction is the moles of gas/ total moles.
Let's determine the moles of each:
Moles O₂ → 15.1 g / 16 g/mol = 0.94
Moles N₂ → 8.19 g / 14 g/mol = 0.013
Moles H₂ → 2.46 / 2 g/mol = 1.23
Total moles = 2.183
Mole fraction O₂= 0.94 / 2.183 → 0.43
Answer:
a. 3.72 [atm]
Explanation:
For a gas at constant temperature, (with no change in number of molecules of the gas), we can apply Boyle's Law: 
![(1.556[atm])(268.5[mL])=P_2(112.4[mL])](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%281.556%5Batm%5D%29%28268.5%5BmL%5D%29%3DP_2%28112.4%5BmL%5D%29)
![\dfrac{(1.556[atm])(268.5[mL\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{--}])}{112.4[mL \!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{--}]}=\dfrac{P_2(112.4[mL]\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{-----})}{112.4[mL]\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!\!{-----}}](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cdfrac%7B%281.556%5Batm%5D%29%28268.5%5BmL%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%7B--%7D%5D%29%7D%7B112.4%5BmL%20%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%7B--%7D%5D%7D%3D%5Cdfrac%7BP_2%28112.4%5BmL%5D%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%7B-----%7D%29%7D%7B112.4%5BmL%5D%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%5C%21%7B-----%7D%7D)

It seems like the answer should have 4 significant figures since all of the other quantities have 4 significant figures, but the closest answer choice of those provided is a. 3.72
When calcium carbonate is heated, it breaks down to form calcium oxide and carbon dioxide.
Thermal decomposition is the process in which heat is required.
It is also known as thermolysis.
It is processed in which a compound breaks into two or more products when the heat is supplied.
This reaction is used for the production of oxygen.
This reaction is also used for production of acidic as well as basic oxides.
CaCO3 on thermal decomposition gives:
CaCO3→CaO+CO2
CaO→ Basic oxide.
CO2→ Acidic oxide.
2) carbon and hydrogen only.
