Answer:
Scientific Question: ... I will boil water and add a substance like salt to see if the boiling point increases.
Answer: Decreasing the temperature inside the container will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container.
Explanation:
According to Gay-Lussac's Law : 'The pressure of the gas increases with increase in temperature of the gas when volume of the gas is kept constant'.

At constant volume, pressure of the gas will decrease on decreasing the temperature or vice versa.
Decreasing the temperature inside the container will decrease the pressure of a gas inside a closed cubical container.
Dehydration is removal of water.
In alcohols dehydration is α-β elimination or 1,2 elimination, it means the hydroxyl group will be removed from α-carbon while the hydrogen will be removed from near by carbon.
In case of neopentyl alcohol there is no β hydrogen present on the β carbon [as shown in figure].
The only possible way for it to undergo dehydration is by rearrangement.
The process or mechanism can be understood as:
so the chief product is 2-methylbut-2-ene
Answer:
=154.8 J
Explanation:
The rise in temperature is contributed by the change in temperature.
Change in enthalpy = MC∅, where M is the mass of the substance, C is the specific heat capacity and ∅ is the change in temperature.
Change in temperature = 100.0°C-20.0°C=80°C
ΔH=MC∅
The specific heat capacity of gold= 0.129 J/g°C
ΔH= 15.0g×0.129J/g°C×80°C
=154.8 J
