A compound differs from an element in that it can be decomposed by a chemical reaction.

A compound, by definition, is made up of two or more elements that have been combined together through a chemical bond.

Thus, the chemical bond or bonds in a compound can be decomposed by a chemical reaction giving rise to the individual elements that make up the compound.

This is unlike an element that can not be decomposed by any chemical reaction.

A sample of chlorine gas occupies a volume of 775 mL at a pressure of 545 mmHg. Calculate the pressure of the gas (in mmHg) if t
madam [21]

Answer : The final pressure of the gas is, 2.47\times 10^3mmHg

Explanation :

Boyle's Law : It is defined as the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1 = initial pressure = 545 mmHg

P_2 = final pressure = ?

V_1 = initial volume = 775 mL

V_2 = second volume = 171 mL

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

545mmHg\times 775mL=P_2\times 171mL

P_2=2470.03mmHg=2.47\times 10^3mmHg

Therefore, the final pressure of the gas is, 2.47\times 10^3mmHg
