Answer:
The final pressure is 0.788 atm (option b).
Explanation:
Boyle's law says that the volume occupied by a given gaseous mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure. That is: if the pressure increases, the volume decreases, while if the pressure decreases, the volume increases. This is expressed mathematically as the product of pressure times volume equal to a constant value:
P*V=k
Assuming a certain volume of gas V1 that is at a pressure P1 at the beginning of the experiment, by varying the volume of gas to a new value V2, then the pressure will change to P2, and it will be fulfilled:
P1*V1=P2*V2
In this case:
- P1= 2.14 atm
- V1= 3 L
- P2= ?
- V2= 8.15 L
Replacing:
2.14 atm*3 L= P2* 8.15 L
Solving:

0.788 atm= P2
<u><em>The final pressure is 0.788 atm (option b).</em></u>
There's two sig figs: the 1 and the zero. The 10^-2 contributes no sig figs.
Answer:
32.76mole of P
Explanation:
The reaction expression is given as;
P₄O₁₀ → 4P + 5O₂
Given parameters:
Number of moles of P₄O₁₀ = 8.19mol
Unknown:
Number of moles of P produced = ?
Solution:
From the balanced reaction expression;
1 mole of P₄O₁₀ will produce 4 mole of P
8.19mole of P₄O₁₀ will therefore produce 4 x 8.19 = 32.76mole of P
