Document Summary

Chem 102: general descriptive chemistry ii - lecture 5: mole fractions, real. Example problem: total pressure is 24. 4 atm and air is 21% oxygen, 79% nitrogen. Calculate the partial pressure of oxygen. (assume 100 moles: xo2 = 0. 21, po2 = 0. 21 x 24. 4 atm = 5. 12 atm, note: mole fractions do not count for significant figures. Pressure underwater: pressure increases as you go further underwater, for every 33 feet of salt water, you experience 1 atm of pressure. 2 atm of water + 1 atm of air = 3 atm. Partial pressures increase/decrease with total pressure: hyperoxia oxygen toxicity - too much o2 not good, can cause multiple tissue damage, blindness, death, occurs at po2 of above 1. 6 atm. Ideal gases behave like gases in kinetic molecular theory: real gases don"t behave like ideal gases, at high pressures/low temperatures, assumptions made by kinetic molecular theory break down.
