For equal moles of gas, temperature can be calculated from ideal gas equation as follows:
P×V=n×R×T ...... (1)
Initial volume, temperature and pressure of gas is 3.25 L, 297.5 K and 2.4 atm respectively.
2.4 atm ×3.25 L=n×R×297.5 K
Rearranging,
n\times R=0.0262 atm L/K
Similarly at final pressure and volume from equation (1),
1.5 atm ×4.25 L=n×R×T
Putting the value of n×R in above equation,
1.5 atm ×4.25 L=0.0262 (atm L/K)×T
Thus, T=243.32 K
The correct answer is option C, that is, it is reduced.
In reduction and oxidation reactions, reduction refers to the loss of an oxygen atom from a molecule or the gaining of one or more electrons. A reduction reaction is observed from the perspective of the molecule being reduced, as when one molecule gets reduced, another one gets oxidized. The complete reaction is called a redox reaction.
In the given case, iron gains electrons mean that it is reduced.
A cell is a microscopic living organism which is the smallest part of an organism such as a plant or animal.
