7. what is the total pressure of the following mixture of gases in a 20.0 l container at 298 k: 12.0 g he,
4.00 mol h2 and 6.25 atm ne?

P(total) = 14.81 atm

Explanation:

According to the Dalton law of partial pressure,

The pressure exerted by mixture of gases are equal to the sum of partial pressure of individual gases.

P(total) = P1 + P2 + P3+ + Pn

Given data:

Volume of container = 20.0 L

Temperature = 298 K

Mass of He = 12.0 g

Moles of hydrogen = 4.00 mol

Pressure of Ne = 6.25 atm

Solution:

Moles of helium:

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 12 g/ 4 g/mol

Number of moles = 3 mol

Pressure of helium:

PV = nRT

P = nRT/ V

P = 3 mol × 0.0821 atm.L. mol⁻¹.k⁻¹ × 298 K / 20 L

P = 73.4 atm / 20

p = 3.67 atm

Pressure of hydrogen:

PV = nRT

P = nRT/ V

P = 4 mol × 0.0821 atm.L. mol⁻¹.k⁻¹ × 298 K / 20 L

P = 97.86 atm / 20

P = 4.89 atm

Total pressure:

P(total) = P(He) + P(Ne) + P(H₂)

P(total) = 3.67 atm + 6.25 atm + 4.89 atm

P(total) = 14.81 atm

the ozone layer acts as a filter for the shorter wavelength and highly hazardous ultraviolet radiation (uvr) from the sun, protecting life on earth from its potentially harmful effects. when the sky is clear, there is an inverse relationship between stratospheric ozone and solar uvr measured at the earth's surface.
