Chapter 13.3, Problem 87RP
A mixture of gases is assembled by first filling an evacuated 0.15-m3 tank with neon until the pressure is 35 kPa. Oxygen is added next until the pressure increases to 105 kPa. Finally, nitrogen is added until the pressure increases to 140 kPa. During each step of the tank’s filling, the contents are maintained at 60°C. Determine the mass of each constituent in the resulting mixture, the apparent molecular weight of the mixture, and the fraction of the tank volume occupied by nitrogen.
