Explanation:
The partial pressure of an individual gas is equal to the total pressure of the mixture multiplied by the mole fraction of the gas.
Total pressure = 2atm
Mole Fraction = number of moles / total number of moles
Neon
Mole Fraction = 4.46 / 7.35 = 0.607
Partial Pressure = 0.607 * 2 = 1.214 atm
Argon
Mole Fraction = 0.74 / 7.35 = 0.101
Partial Pressure = 0.101 * 2 = 0.202 atm
Xenon
Mole Fraction = 2.15 / 7.35 = 0.293
Partial Pressure = 0.293 * 2 = 0.586 atm
The balanced chemical reaction is given as follows:
<span>2 KClO3(s) → 2 KCl(s) + 3 O2(g)
The starting amount of the reactant are given above. These values would be used for the calculations. We do as follows:
</span>2.72 g KClO3 (1 mol / 122.50g )( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3 ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 1.06 g O2
<span>
0.361 g KClO3 </span>(1 mol / 122.50g )( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3 ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 0.14 g O2
<span>
83.6 kg KClO3 (1000g / 1kg) </span>(1 mol / 122.50g )( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3 ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 3275.76 g O2
<span>
22.5 mg KClO3</span> (1 g / 1000 mg) (1 mol / 122.50g )( 3 mol O2 / 2 mol KClO3 ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 0.009 g O2
The nitrogen has been reduced or has undergone reduction and it has gained one electron
Answer: The result is presented in proportion which gives a clearer understanding and accurate result.
Explanation: Percentage change in mass is the proportion of the initial mass of a substance changed after sometime. The results is presented as a percentage making it more accurate and can help to give future reference to weight calculations.
Change is Mass is the mass of a substance left after sometime mostly given in grams. It is not as accurate as percentage change in mass. It is generally better to show results in percentage change in mass as it gives a better understanding of what mass of a substance was lost after a given period or after application of energy like Heat or increased temperature.
