The Cylinder Shown Contains 0

Question 17

Multiple Choice

The cylinder shown contains 0.79 moles of nitrogen,0.19 moles of oxygen and 0.02 moles carbon dioxide,a total of 1.00 mole of molecules in the approximate proportion in which they are present in air.Of the three gases,only carbon dioxide is appreciably soluble in the water in the well at the bottom.Assume an equilibrium between dissolved and undissolved carbon dioxide at the beginning and sufficient time lapse to reestablish that equilibrium after the change described.
