Answer: The new pressure is 7.1 atm
Explanation:
To calculate the final pressure of the system, we use the equation given by Gay-Lussac Law. This law states that pressure of the gas is directly proportional to the temperature of the gas at constant pressure.
Mathematically,

where,
are the initial pressure and temperature of the gas.
are the final pressure and temperature of the gas.
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the new pressure is 7.1 atm
Mass of SiC = 2 g

Given
Reaction
SiO₂(s) + 3C(s) → SiC(s) + 2CO(g)
3.00 g of SiO₂
4.50 g of C
Required
mass of SiC
Solution
mol SiO₂ (MW=60,08 g/mol) :
= 3 g : 60.08 g/mol
= 0.0499
mol C(Ar = 12 g/mol) :
= 4.5 g : 12 g/mol
= 0.375
mol : coefficient of reactants =
SiO₂ : 0.0499/1 = 0.0499
C : 0.375/3 = 0.125
SiO₂ as a limiting reactant(smaller ratio)
Mol SiC based on mol SiO₂ = 0.0499
Mass SiC :
= mol x MW
= 0.0499 x 40,11 g/mol
= 2 g
Answer:
4. mutualism
5. commensalism
Explanation:
4. mutualism (they benefit off each other)
5. commensalism (the whale is unaffected)
A and C are incorrect because they are not complete transfer of valence electrons. Ionic bonds best to form a neutral molecule
