<span>438.0 mmHg is the partial pressure of oxygen The ideal gas law is PV = nRT where P = pressure V = volume n = number of moles R = ideal gas constant (8.3144598 (L*kPa)/(K* mol) ) T = absolute temperature Converting the temperature from C to K gives 43.4 + 273.15 = 316.55 K Converting pressure from mmHg to kPa gives 675.9 mmHg * 0.133322387415 = 90.11260165 kPa Solving for n in the equation for the ideal gas law, gives PV = nRT n = PV/(RT) Substituting known values into the equation. n = PV/(RT) n = 90.11260165 kPa 16.2 L/(8.3144598 (L*kPa)/(K* mol) 316.55 K) n = 1459.824147 L*kPa / 2631.94225 (L*kPa)/(mol) n = 0.554656603 mol So we have 0.554656603 moles of gas particles. Now to determine how much of that is oxygen. Atomic weight oxygen = 15.999 g/mol Atomic weight argon = 39.948 g/mol Molar mass O2 = 2 * 15.999 = 31.998 g/mol Now we need to figure out how many moles of O2 gas and Ar will both add up to the number of moles of gas particles and have the proper mass. So M = number of moles of O2 0.554656603 - M = number of moles of Ar and M * 31.998 + (0.554656603 - M) * 39.948 = 19.3 Solve for M M * 31.998 + (0.554656603 - M) * 39.948 = 19.3 M * 31.998 + 22.15742198 - M * 39.948 = 19.3 -M * 7.95 + 22.15742198 = 19.3 -M * 7.95 = -2.857421977 M = 0.359424148 So we now know that we have 0.359424148 moles of oxygen gas out of a total of 0.554656603 moles of gas particles. So oxygen gas is providing: 0.359424148 / 0.554656603 = 0.648012024 = 64.8012024% of the total pressure of 675.9 mmHg. So the partial pressure is 675.9 * 0.648012024 = 437.9913271 mmHg = 438.0 mmHg</span>

Arrange the following substance into acid,base and neutral. sodium chloride, tomato juice, vinegar,sea water,bicorbonate of sodi
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

sodium chloride: neutral.

tomato juice: acid.

vinegar: acid.

sea water: base.

bicarbonate of sodium​: base.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, in agreement to the definition of the pH, as the measure of the acidity and basicity of a substance; it is important to recall that pH's below 7 stand for acidic substances and pH's above 7 stand for basic substances, whereas a pH of 7 defines a neutral one. In such a way, given the pH's of the given substances, 7, 4.05 to 4.65, around 2.5, about 8.1 and about 8.3 respectively for sodium chloride, tomato juice, vinegar, sea water, bicarbonate of sodium​, it is possible to assert:

sodium chloride: neutral.

tomato juice: acid.

vinegar: acid.

sea water: base.

bicarbonate of sodium​: base.

Best regards!

What is the empirical formula of a compound with a percent composition of 22.5% Phosphorous and 77.5% Chlorine?
sashaice [31]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf PCl_3}}

Explanation:

We are given the percent composition: 22.5% phosphorus and 77.5% chlorine.

We can assume there are 100 grams of this compound. We choose 100 because we can simply use the percentages as the masses.

  • 22.5 g P
  • 77.5 g Cl

Next, convert these masses to moles, using the molar masses found on the Periodic Table.

  • P: 30.974 g/mol
  • Cl: 35.45 g/mol

Use the molar masses as ratios and multiply by the number of grams. 22.5 \ g \ P  * \frac {1 \ mol \ P }{30.974 \ g \ P}= \frac {22.5 \ mol \ P }{ 30.974} = 0.7264157035 \ mol \ P

77.5 \ g \ Cl  * \frac {1 \ mol \ Cl }{35.45 \ g \ Cl}= \frac {77.5 \ mol \ Cl }{ 35.45} \ =2.186177715 \ mol \ Cl

Divide both of the moles by the smallest number of moles to find the mole ratio.

\frac {0.7264157035} {0.7264157035} = 1

\frac {2.186177715}{0.7264157035}=3.009540824 \approx 3

The mole ratio is about 1 P: 3 Cl, so the empirical formula is written as:<u> PCl₃</u>
