Answer #1

answer:

  Given : total pressure=912 mmHg

Mass of H2 =0.575g , Mass of CH4= 2.02g

We know that no. of moles = mass/molar mass,. also

molar mass of H2 =2.016g/mol and molar mass of CH4=16.04g/mol

Now, moles of H2=0.575/2.016=0.2852mol

moles of CH4=2.02/16.04=0.1259mol

Since, Partial pressure=mole fraction*total pressure

Partial pressure of H2= [0.2852/(0.2852+0.1259)]×912=632.6986=>PH2=632.7mmHg

PCH4= [0.1259/(0.1259+0.2852)]×912=279.301=>PCH4=279.3mmHg
