If the level is different, by what factor? Explain. (5 pts) Solution: A barometer works based on the principle that the pressure exerted by the liquid column balances atmospheric pressure. The pressure is given by: P = pgh Since the atmospheric pressure remains constant (P = 1.00 atm), the height of the liquid column is inversely proportional to its density: Step 1: Given Data PHg hol=hgx Poil • Density of mercury: PHg = 13.6 g/cm³ Density of oil: Poil = 0.92 g/cm³ • Standard height of mercury at 1.00 atm: hμg Step 2: Compute Height of Oil = 760 mm = 0.760 m 13.6 hoil = 0.760 x 0.92 hoil = 0.760 × 14.78 hoil = 11.23 m Step 3: Compare Heights Since oil is less dense than mercury, the column of oil must be much taller than that of mercury.

- Question 3: A sealed flask at room temperature contains a mixture of neon (Ne) and nitrogen (N2) gases. Ne has a mass of 3.25 g and exerts a pressure of 48.2 torr. . N2 contributes a pressure of 142 torr. • What is the mass of the N2 in the flask? • Atomic mass of Ne = 20.1797 g/mol • Atomic mass of N = 14.0067 g/mol Solution: We will use the Ideal Gas Law to determine the number of moles of each gas and calculate the mass of N2. PV = nRT where: • P = total pressure • V volume of the flask (same for both gases) n = number of moles of gas • R 0.0821 L atm/mol K • T = Room temperature (assume 298 K) Since both gases are in the same flask, their partial pressures correspond to their mole fractions. Step 1: Convert Pressures to Atmospheres 48.2 PNe = 0.0634 atm 760 142 PN2 = = 0.1868 atm 760 Step 2: Determine Moles of Ne nNe = mass molar mass 3.25 nNe 20.1797 nne 0.1611 mol Step 3: Use Partial Pressure Ratio to Find narrow_forward"I have written solutions in text form, but I need experts to rewrite them in handwriting from A to Z, exactly as I have written, without any changes."arrow_forward3.12 (B).
