Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The partial pressure of helium is to be calculated.
Concept introduction:
The mole fraction of an individual gas, for a combination of gases, is the ratio of the moles of the individual gas to the total number of moles of the mixture.
Here,
Also, the mole fraction of an individual gas, for a combination of gases, can be calculated from the ratio of the partial pressure of the individual gas to the total pressure of the combination.
Here,
The ideal gas equation elaborates the physical properties of gases by linking the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles with each other with the help of four gas laws. This can be shown by:
Here,
Gas constant having the values:

- 39 A sample containing only NO2 and SO2, has a total pressure of 120. torr. Measurements show that the partial pressure of NO2 is 43 torr. 1f the vessel has a volume of 800.0 mL and the temperature is 22.0°C, how many moles of each gas are present?arrow_forwardA mixture at 33 °C contains H2at 325 torr. N;at 475 tore and O2at 650. torr. What is the total pressure of the gases in the system? Which gas contains the greatest number of moles?arrow_forwardA collapsed balloon is filled with He to a volume of 12.5 L at a pressure of 1.00 atm. Oxygen, O2, is then added so that the final volume of the balloon is 26 L with a total pressure of 1.00 atm. The temperature, which remains constant throughout, is 21.5 C. (a) What mass of He does the balloon contain? (b) What is the final partial pressure of He in the balloon? (c) What is the partial pressure of O2 in the balloon? (d) What is the mole fraction of each gas?arrow_forward
- 99 Pure gaseous nitrogen dioxide (NO2) cannot be obtained, because NO2dimerizes, or combines with itself, to produce a mixture of NO2 and N2O4. A particular mixture of NO2, and N2O4 has a density of 2.39 g/L at 50°C and 745 torr. What is the partial pressure of NO2 in this mixture?arrow_forwardHydrogen gas is used in weather balloon because it is less expensive than Helium. Assume that 5.57 g of H2 is used to fill a weather balloon to an initial volume of 67 L at 1.04 atm. If the ballloon rises to an altitude where the pressure is 0.047 atm, what is its new volume? Assume that the temperature remains constant.arrow_forwardA 1-liter container is filled with 2.0 mol Ar, 2.0 mol H2, and 4.0 mol Kr. Which of the following statements about these gases is false? a The Kr is the densest of the three gases. b The mole fraction of Ar in the flask is 0.25. c The total pressure in the flask is four times the pressure of the Ar. d The Ar atoms hit the walls of the flask with the greatest force of the three gases. e H2 has the highest rms velocity of the three gases.arrow_forward
