Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The partial pressure of H2 and the number of moles of H2 present in the sample should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The problem can be solved using
Where, P is the total pressure of the mixture
V is the volume of the mixture
R is the gas constant
T is the absolute temperature and,
n is the total number of moles of hydrogen gas and water vapor.
Now,

INTRODUCTORY CHEMISTRY
- A typical barometric pressure in Redding. California, is about 750 mm Hg. Calculate this pressure in atm and kPa.arrow_forwardIn the Mthode Champenoise, grape juice is fermented in a wine bottle to produce sparkling wine. The reaction is C6H12O6(aq)2C2H5OH(aq)+2CO2(g) Fermentation of 750. mL grape juice (density = 1.0 g/cm3) is allowed to take place in a bottle with a total volume of 825 mL until 12% by volume is ethanol (C2H5OH). Assuming that the CO2 is insoluble in H2O (actually, a wrong assumption), what would be the pressure of CO2 inside the wine bottle at 25C? (The density of ethanol is 0.79 g/cm3.)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
- You have two pressure-proof steel cylinders of equal volume, one containing 1.0 kg of CO and the other containing 1.0 kg of acetylene, C2H2. (a) In which cylinder is the pressure greater at 25 C? (b) Which cylinder contains the greater number of molecules?arrow_forwardA study of climbers who reached the summit of Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen showed that the partial pressures of O2 and CO2 in their lungs were 35 mm Mg and 7.5 mm Hg, respectively. The barometric pressure at the summit was 253 mm Hg. Assume the lung gases are saturated with moisture at a body temperature of 37 C [which means the partial pressure of water vapor in the lungs is P(H2O) = 47.1 mm Hg]. If you assume the lung gases consist of only O2, N2, CO2, and H2O, what is the partial pressure of N2?arrow_forward
