Astudent finds a container of gases in the laboratory classroom with a total pressure reading of 655 mmhg. the label on the container describes the contents as 5.00 g of carbon dioxide gas and 3.75 g of helium gas. calculate the partial pressure of carbon dioxide in the container in mmhg.

70.8 mmHg

Explanation:

To find partial pressure of carbon dioxide we first find the mole fraction of carbon dioxide

n (carbon dioxide) = 5/44.01 g/mol = 0.11361 mol

n (Helium) = 3.75 g/4 g/mol = 0.9375 mol

The partial pressure of carbon dioxide will be the mole fraction of carbon dioxide multiplied by the total pressure

Partial pressure = 0.11361g/(0.11361g + 0.9375 g)* 655 mmHg

                          = 70.8 mmHg

the answer for sodium is 0.186

the answer for rubidium is 0.251

put the answers   and i could answer.
