Heliox- a diving gas mix that may have a typically less of oxygen as regular air but completely replaces the nitrogen with helium for their safety and support underwater. If a diver travels 150 meters below sea level, they may experience the weight of around 10 atm. Their 10-liter tanks contain 55.3 g of 02 and 330.6 g of He as trace gases. As they descend into the sea floor, what would be the partial pressure of oxygen and helium and the total pressure in the container at a temperature of 18 •C?

Molecules in a gas are being pumped through a vacuum system. Eventually the pressure drops low enough that the gas molecules collide with the chamber walls more than they do themselves. How can the pressure be further reduced? I. Add a secondary pump with a large inlet to capture as many randomly moving molecules as possible. II. Add a secondary pump and insure that once molecules enter it that they can't escape out the inlet.
Would you kindly verify the below 4 problem solutions below: Problem 1: A sample of nitrous oxide has a volume of 120 l at 1,500 mm hg and -10C. Calculate its pressure when its volume is compressed to 50 l and its temperature increased to 34C. Is my calculation below correct? 1,500mm x 120L x 307K / 263K x 50L = 4202.28mm or 4202mm Problem 2: At 27C and 750mm Hg, a sample of hydrogen occupies 5.00L. How much space will it occupy at STP? Is my calculation below correct? 750mm x 5L x 273K / 300K x 760mm = 4.49L rounded to 4.5L Problem 3: The density of hydrogen at STP is 0.09g/l. What is the mass of the sample of hydrogen in problem 2 above (4.49L) Is my calculation below correct? 4.49L x 0.09 = .4041 or rounded to .40 Problem 4: If the gas in problem 2 above (4.49L) were Radon instead of Hydrogen, what would its mass be if its density is 9.73g/l at STP? Thank you Is my calculation below correct? 9.73g/l x 4.49 = 43.6877 or rounded to 43.69 g/l
Problem: The three main components of air are carbon dioxide, nitrogen and oxygen. In a sample containing a mixture of these gases (at STP) the partial pressure of carbon dioxide and nitrogen are given as 28.5 mmHg and 593.525 mmHg, respectively. 1. What is the partial pressure of oxygen? 2. What gas law should be applied in solving Problem 1?
An experiment is conducted in which a quantity of H2(g) is chemically generated in a closed headspace of volume V1 at absolute temperature T1, thereby raising the total pressure from Pa (the initial air pressure) to Pf (the total final pressure of H2(g) + air).Compose an algebraic expression for the volume (V2) that this sample of H2(g) would occupy if it were isolated (pure -- i.e. no air) at absolute temperature T2 and partial pressure P2. V2 = VM =

5-54 Automobile air bags are inflated by nitrogen gas. When a significant collision occurs, an electronic sensor triggers the decomposition of sodium azide to form nitrogen gas and sodium metal. The nitrogen gas then inflates nylon bags, which protect the driver and front-seat passenger from impact with the dashboard and windshield. What volume of nitrogen gas measured at 1 atm and 27°C is formed by the decomposition of 100. g of sodium azide?
Methane (CH4) gas flows into a combustion chamber at a rate of 200. L/min at 1.50 atm and ambient temperature. Air is added to the chamber at 1.00 atm and the same temperature, and the gases are ignited. a. To ensure complete combustion of CH4 to CO2(g) and H2O(g), three times as much oxygen as is necessary is reacted. Assuming air is 21 mole percent O2 and 79 mole percent N2, calculate the flow rate of air necessary to deliver the required amount of oxygen. b. Under the conditions in part a, combustion of methane was not complete as a mixture of CO2(g) and CO(g) was produced. It was determined that 95.0% of the carbon in the exhaust gas was present in CO2. The remainder was present as carbon in CO. Calculate the composition of the exhaust gas in terms of mole fraction of CO, CO2, O2, N2, and H2O. Assume CH4 is completely reacted and N2 is unreacted.
