How was the element neon discovered?
Neon was discovered in 1898 by the British chemists Sir William Ramsay and Morris W. Travers in London Neon was discovered when Ramsay chilled a sample of the atmosphere until it became a liquid, then warmed the liquid and captured the gases as they boiled off. The gases that boiled off, in addition to nitrogen, oxygen, and argon, were krypton, xenon, and neon.
Is air an element mixture or compound?
Air is a mixture, made mostly of the elements nitrogen and oxygen. It also has some other gases, such as argon (element), carbon dioxide (compound), and water (compound).
During what process do gases make up the solution you breath?
It is in respiration that we find a solution or mixture of gases that we breathe in or out.
What does Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures say?
The total pressure of a gas mixture is the sum of the individual pressures.
Which of the following is not a mixture a. pure water b. seawater c. air d. brass?
Answer a. Pure Water is not a mixture - it is a compound. Seawater is a mixture of water and salts, air is a mixture of gases and brass is a mixture (an alloy) of copper and zinc metals.
Who discovered water vapour?
To tell u the truth I have no idea. Im am supposed to be looking for the answer cause of my science fair project. GASES (the air ones). -Manroop K. Bains
Who formulated the gay-lussacs law?
That would be Joseph Louis Gay-Lussac, a French chemist and physicist of the 19th century. He figured out that the volume and temperature of gases share a direct relationship. He also discovered boron.
How did neon get its name?
Neon came fromNeon is a greek word (neon meaning "New One"). It was discovered in 1898 by scittusg chemist William Ramsay (1852-1916) and English Chemist Morris W.Travers in London, England. Neon was discovered when Ramsay chilled a sample of the atmosphere until it became a liquid, then warmed the liquied and captured the new gases as they boiled off. It was of three gases as krypton, xenon and neon.
The proportion of pressure that a single gas exerts within a mixture?
In a mixture of gases, for example 70% Helium and 30% Oxygen, the pressure exerted will be split 70/30 between the gases, respectively. As John Dalton discovered, the proportion of these pressures is the proportion of the number of molecules of the gas within the mixture.
What is a mixture of gases compared with a single gas?
More disordered
What is an incorrect description Question options A homogeneous mixture A heterogeneous compound A solid element A mixture of solids A solution of gases?
A solution of gases is not correct. it should be a mixture of gases
Who discovered gases of layers?
Layers of gases are present in atmosphere. It was discovered by Mario Molina.
What is the formed when two gases mix together?
- A mixture of gases- A chemical reaction producing a compound
Is the mixture of gases in the atmosphere considered a solution suspension or a colloid?
The mixture of gases in the atmosphere are a solution of gases. Since nitrogen makes up 78% of the gases in the atmosphere, it is the solvent and the other gases are the solutes.
What is a mixture of gases?
air
Is helium and air a heterogeneous mixture?
No. It will be a homogeneous mixture of gases.
Is exhaled air a compound mixture or element?
It is a mixture of gases.
