Answer:

The major ionic constituents whose concentrations can be determined from the salinity are known as conservative substances. Their constant relative concentrations are due to the large amounts of these species in the oceans in comparison t

Argon (Ar) and helium (He) are initially in separate compartments of a container at 25°C. The

love history [14]

Answer:

(a) $V_B=11.68L$

(b) $x_{He}=0.533$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since the both gases behave ideally, with the given information we can compute the moles of He in A:

$n_A=\frac{0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*298K}{1.974 atm*6.00L}=2.063mol$

Thus, since the final pressure is 3.60 bar, we can write:

$P=x_{Ar}P_A+x_{He}P_B\\\\P=\frac{n_{Ar}}{n_{Ar}+n_{He}} P_A+\frac{n_{He}}{n_{Ar}+n_{He}} P_B\\\\3.60bar=\frac{2.063mol}{2.063mol+n_{He}} *2.00bar+\frac{n_{He}}{2.063mol+n_{He}} *5.00bar$

The moles of helium could be computed via solver as:

$n_{He}=2.358mol$

Or algebraically:

$3.60bar=\frac{1}{2.063mol+n_{He}} *(4.0126+5.00*n_{He})\\\\7.314+3.60n_{He}=4.013+5.00*n_{He}\\\\7.314-4.013=5.00*n_{He}-3.60n_{He}\\\\n_{He}=\frac{3.3}{1.4}=2.358mol$

In such a way, the volume of the compartment B is:

$V_B=\frac{n_{He}RT}{P_B}=\frac{2.358mol*0.082\frac{atm*L}{mol*K}*298.15K}{4.935atm}\\ \\V_B=11.68L$

Finally, he mole fraction of He is:

$x_{He}=\frac{2.358}{2.358+2.063}\\ \\x_{He}=0.533$

Regards.

Relate what you've learned about the cell to how we inherit traits from our parents. Include the following vocab words, : nucleu

Veronika [31]

Meiosis makes sperm cells and eggs in our parents.
Genes are passed on from them to us.
As Genes carry characteristic, we inherit some characters of our either parent.
That Genetic code resides in DNA [ in it's nitrogenous bases ]
DNA resides under the nucleus of our cells.
When, it translated, it forms into "Protein"

[ We used all 6 words, but in sequence, with proper functioning/place ]

Hope this helps!
