80.0 liters of oxygen gas is collected over water at 50 degrees celcius. the atomsphereic pressure in the room is 96.00 kPA. what is the partial pressure of oxygen?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

daltons law

OpenStudy (anonymous):

daltons law means?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

total pressure is all the pressures added up

OpenStudy (anonymous):

1/2O2 +H2------------------->H2O 80 litres ok now first u convert temperature into kelvin and pressure into atm

i am not sure but this could be an approach: assuming ideal behaviour of oxygen usin PV=nRT there for n u can use the relation n=given mass/molar mass given mass=density*volume Oxygen Density is 1.429 g/L find n then find p of oxygen gas then as u guys say when can say that is the partial pressure exerted by oxygen in a mixture wud contribute to absolute pressure=partial pressure absolute pressure=pressure of gas-atmospheric pressure find it

i agree wid u evn i done half part but i m just lacking how to cal partial pressure of oxygen from the whole system.. and here if u ll take partial presure it will be of all system not only oxygen @salini

OpenStudy (anonymous):

absolute pressure is pressure of gas with respect to atmospheric pressure RELATIVE PRESSURE

OpenStudy (anonymous):

i agree but here they are asking for oxygen not Kc ok

OpenStudy (anonymous):

that was just my idea i dunno to which extent it is correct but with the given data this method looked most suitable:)

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its.....so simple just use the ideal gas equation PV=NRT
