A sample of air is collected over water at 50.00°C. At equilibrium, the total pressure of the moist air is 1.0100 atm. The equilibrium vapor pressure of water at 50.00 °C is 92.5876 mmHg. The composition of dry air is 80.00 mol% N2, 19.00 mol% O2, and 1.000 mol% Ar. a) Calculate the partial pressures in atm of N2, O2, and Ar in the wet mixture assuming ideal gas behavior. b) Calculate the mole fractions of H2O, N2, O2, and Ar in the wet mixture, again assuming ideal gas behavior. c) Calculate the mass fractions of H2O, N2, O2, and Ar in the wet mixture, again assuming ideal gas behavior. d) Calculate the average molecular weight of the wet and dry air in units of g/mol.
