The potential energy of the reactants is 200J.
From the energy diagram, the energy of the product formed is 350J; this means that, this reaction is an endothermic reaction, because it absorbs energy from its environment.<span />
Find your answer in the explanation below.
Explanation:
PV = nRT is called the ideal gas equation and its a combination of 3 laws; Charles' law, Boyle's law and Avogadro's law.
According to Boyle's law, at constant temperature, the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure. i.e V = 1/P
From, Charles' law, we have that volume is directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas at constant pressure. i.e V = T
Avogadro's law finally states that equal volume of all gases at the same temperature and pressure contain the same number of molecules. i.e V = n
Combining the 3 Laws together i.e equating volume in all 3 laws, we have
V = nT/P,
V = constant nT/P
(constant = general gas constant = R)
V = RnT/P
by bringing P to the LHS, we have,
PV = nRT.
