A 2.50 L container at 298 K holds a mixture of nitrogen and oxygen gases at a total pressure of 1.20 atm. When the mixture is passed over heated copper, nitrogen is removed, and the pressure falls to 0.78 atm (temperature unchanged). Determine the mole fraction of oxygen in the original mixture and the mass of oxygen present initially.

Answer Options

A. Mole fraction O₂ = 0.70; Mass of O₂ = 2.79 g
B. Mole fraction O₂ = 0.35; Mass of O₂ = 1.37 g
Correct Answer C. Mole fraction O₂ = 0.65; Mass of O₂ = 2.55 g
D. Mole fraction O₂ = 0.55; Mass of O₂ = 2.20 g
Correct Answer
C
Correct Option:
Mole fraction O₂ = 0.65; Mass of O₂ = 2.55 g
