The steel rods will enable the concrete to form without any bumps and it will add shape to the cement and strength, so no odd massive lumps are formed.

That is what I think anyways :)

1) if I have a 30 mole sample of gas at a temperature of 120˚C, and a volume of 300 L. What is the pressure of the gas on the co
vivado [14]

Answer:

P = 3.23 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Number of moles of gas = 30 mol

Temperature = 120°C

Volume of gas = 300 L

Pressure of gas = ?

Solution:

PV = nRT

P= Pressure

V = volume

n = number of moles

R = general gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/ mol.K  

T = temperature in kelvin

Now we will convert the temperature.

120+273.15 = 393.15 K

P × 300 L = 30 mol × 0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 393.15 K

P = 968.33 atm. L /300 L

P = 3.23 atm
