A gas with a volume of 4.0L at a pressure of 205 kPa is allowed to expand to a volume of 12000 mL. What is the pressure in atmos
Leni [432]

Answer: The pressure in atmospheres is 0.674 in the container if the temperature remains constant.

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}     (At constant temperature and number of moles)

P_1V_1=P_2V_2  

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas  = 205 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of gas = ?

V_1 = initial volume of gas  = 4.0 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 12000 ml = 12 L    (1L=1000ml)  

205\times 4.0=P_2\times 12  

P_2=68.3kPa=0.674atm        (1kPa=0.0098atm)

Therefore, the pressure in atmospheres is 0.674 in the container if the temperature remains constant.

A solution contains 15.27 grams of NaCl in 0.670 kg water at 25 °C. What is the vapor pressure of the solution?
Anvisha [2.4K]

Answer:

The vapor pressure of the solution is 23.636 torr

Explanation:

P_{solution} = X_{solvent}*P_{solvent}

Where;

P_{solution is the vapor pressure of the solution

X_{solvent is the mole fraction of the solvent

P_{solvent is the vapor pressure of the pure solvent

Thus,

15.27 g of NaCl = [(15.27)/(58.5)]moles = 0.261 moles of NaCl

0.67 kg of water =  [(0.67*1000)/(18)]moles = 37.222 moles of H₂O

Mole fraction of solvent (water) = (number of moles of water)/(total number of moles present in solution)

Mole fraction of solvent (water) = (37.222)/(37.222+0.261)

Mole fraction of solvent (water) = 0.993

<u>Note:</u> the vapor pressure of water at 25°C is 0.0313 atm

Therefore, the vapor pressure of the solution = 0.993 * 0.0313 atm

the vapor pressure of the solution = 0.0311 atm = 23.636 torr

A flashlight battery is an example of a
kompoz [17]
<span>Dry cell battery

When an automotive battery is fully charged, the sulfuric acid and water mixture will have a specific gravity of about 1.3. Specific gravity is actually the difference in the weight of water in comparison to a specific fluid. It is measured by a hydrometer. The amount of charge in the battery is normally measured by the specific gravity of the battery. The specific gravity of water is 1 and anything less than one is considered less dense while anything that has a specific gravity of more than 1 is considered more dense than water. </span>
