Partial pressure of H₂ = 499 mmHg

Partial pressure of Ar = 481 mmHg

Explanation:

We'll begin by calculating the number of mole of each gas. This can be obtained as follow:

For Hydrogen:

Molar mass of H₂ = 2 × 1 = 2 g/mol

Mass of H₂ = 0.291 g

Mole of H₂ =?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of H₂ = 0.291/ 2

Mole of H₂ = 0.1455 mole

For Argon:

Molar mass of Ar = 40 g/mol

Mass of Ar = 5.62 g

Mole of Ar =?

Mole = mass /molar mass

Mole of Ar = 5.62 / 40

Mole of Ar = 0.1405 mole

Next, we shall determine the mole fraction of each gas. This can be obtained as follow:

Mole of H₂ = 0.1455 mole

Mole of Ar = 0.1405 mole

Total mole = 0.1455 + 0.1405

Total mole = 0.286 mole

Mole fraction of H₂ (nₕ₂) = mole of H₂ / total mole

Mole fraction of H₂ (nₕ₂) = 0.1455/0.286

Mole fraction of H₂ (nₕ₂) = 0.509

Mole fraction of Ar (nₐᵣ) = mole of Ar / total mole

Mole fraction of Ar (nₐᵣ) = 0.1405/0.286

Mole fraction of Ar (nₐᵣ) = 0.491

Finally, we shall determine the partial pressure of each gas. This can be obtained as follow:

For Hydrogen:

Mole fraction of H₂ (nₕ₂) = 0.509

Total pressure (Pₜ) = 980 mmHg

Partial pressure of H₂ (Pₕ₂) =?

Pₕ₂ = nₕ₂ × Pₜ

Pₕ₂ = 0.509 × 980

Partial pressure of H₂ (Pₕ₂) = 499 mmHg

For Argon:

Partial pressure of H₂ (Pₕ₂) = 499 mmHg

Total pressure (Pₜ) = 980 mmHg

Partial pressure of Ar (Pₐᵣ) =?

Pₜ = Pₕ₂ + Pₐᵣ

980 = 499 + Pₐᵣ

Collect like terms

980 – 499 = Pₐᵣ

481 = Pₐᵣ

Partial pressure of Ar (Pₐᵣ) = 481 mmHg

SUMMARY:

Partial pressure of H₂ (Pₕ₂) = 499 mmHg

Partial pressure of Ar (Pₐᵣ) = 481 mmHg

wisjndnfnnjjdjdjxn

when the volume of gas is   changed from   717.73 ml   to 852 ml   the temperature will   change   from 315   c to 452   c

    calculation

this is calculated using the charles law formula

that is,   v1/t1 = v2/t2

          v1=?

        t1 = 315 c   into   kelvin = 315 +273 = 588 k

        v2 = 852   ml

        t2 = 425c + 273 =698 k

make v1   the subject of the formula ( by   multiplying both side by t1)

  v1=( v2 xt1) / t2

v1= (852 ml   x 588 k)/ 698 k= 717.73 ml
