Answer:
X= Be
Y= B
Z=O
Explanation:
From the description of the compound XCl2, among the options listed only beryllium can form such compound with three lone pairs in the two chlorine atoms and no lone pair on the central atom X.
From the description of YCl3, only Boron among the options listed can form such a compound with no lone pair on the central atom and three lone pairs on each of the chlorine atoms.
From the description of ZCl2, only oxygen forms the compound OCl2 among the elements listed where oxygen possesses two lone pairs and each chlorine atom possesses three lone pairs each.
Answer: The squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L
Explanation:
To calculate the new volume, we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.
The equation given by this law is:

where,
are initial pressure and volume.
are final pressure and volume.
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Thus the squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L
