thepressure of this mixture of gases?

The given question is incorrect. The correct question is as follows.

If 20.0 g of and 4.4 g of  are placed in a 5.00 L container at , what is  the pressure of this mixture of gases?

Explanation:

As we know that number of moles equal to the mass of substance divided by its molar mass.

Mathematically,   No. of moles =

Hence, we will calculate the moles of oxygen as follows.

       No. of moles =

     Moles of =

                            = 0.625 moles

Now,   moles of

                                      = 0.1 moles

Therefore, total number of moles present are as follows.

Total moles = moles of + moles of

                    = 0.625 + 0.1

                    = 0.725 moles

And, total temperature  will be:

                    T = (21 + 273) K = 294 K

According to ideal gas equation,  

                         PV = nRT

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

                P =

                   =

                    = atm

                    = 3.498 atm

or,                = 3.50 atm (approx)

Therefore, we can conclude that the pressure of this mixture of gases is 3.50 atm.

organisms are more likely to be more preserved in mud than sand because mud is moist and wet, while sand is very dry.
