<span>The answer is C. The volume decreases. A scuba diver at the surface of the sea takes a deep breath and fills her lungs with 6 liters of air. The pressure in her lungs is 1 atm. She then dives down ten meters, without inhaling or exhaling, until the pressure of the air in her lungs is 2 atm. According to Boyle’s law,  the air in her lungs decreases as she dives down.  </span>Boyle's Law<span> is the gas </span>law which states that in a closed space, pressure and volume are inversely related. As pressure increases, volume decreases, and vice versa.

baherus [9]

Answer:

camphor sublimates salt is soluble in water while sand does not sublime and does not dissolve in water you first heat the mixture in a beaker covered with a watch glass camphor will then accumulate on the watch glass then you dissolve the remaining mixture of sand and salt salt will dissolve forming a salt solution then you filter using a filter paper and a beaker the residue on the filter paper is sand while the filtrate is salt solution you then heat the salt solution so that it can evaporate leaving salt particles thus you will have obtained salt sand and camphor

If 75 grams of oxygen react, how many grams of aluminum are required?
german

Answer:

84.24 g

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of oxygen = 75 g

Mass of Al required to react = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

4Al + 3O₂     →   2Al₂O₃

Number of moles of oxygen:

Number of moles = mass/ molar mass

Number of moles = 75 g/ 32 g/mol

Number of moles = 2.34 mol

Now we will compare the moles of oxygen with Al.

                          O₂         :          Al

                           3          :             4

                        2.34        :         4/3×2.34 = 3.12 mol

Mass of Al required:

Mass = number of moles × molar mass

Mass = 3.12 mol × 27 g/mol

Mass = 84.24 g

5.6 g of solid CO2 is put in an empty sealed 4.00 L container at a temperature of
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

0.78 atm

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes:

Mass of CO2 = 5.6g

Volume (V) = 4L

Temperature (T) =300K

Pressure (P) =?

Step 2:

Determination of the number of mole of CO2.

This is illustrated below:

Mass of CO2 = 5.6g

Molar Mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 12 + 32 = 44g/mol

Number of mole CO2 =?

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of CO2 = 5.6/44

Number of mole of CO2 = 0.127 mole

Step 3:

Determination of the pressure in the container.

The pressure in the container can be obtained by applying the ideal gas equation as follow:

PV = nRT

The gas constant (R) = 0.082atm.L/Kmol

The number of mole (n) = 0.127 mole

P x 4 = 0.127 x 0.082 x 300

Divide both side by 4

P = (0.127 x 0.082 x 300) /4

P = 0.78 atm

Therefore, the pressure in the container is

Determine the molecular formula of a compound that is 49.48% carbon, 5.19% hydrogen, 28.85% nitrogen, and 16.48% oxygen. the mol
Softa [21]
To determine molecular formula, we first need to find out its empirical formula,
Carbon. Hydrogen. Nitrogen. Oxygen
Mass. 49.98g. 5.19g. 28.85g. 16.48g
Mole. 4.165. 5.19. 2.06. 1.03
Divide 4. 5. 2. 1
by
smallest
So by comparing the mole ratio from the table above, i hope u understand the table
The empirical formula is C4H5N2O
given molecular mass = 194.19g
so
(C4H5N2O) n= 194.19
(48+5+28+16)n=194.19
n= 2
molecular formula = C8H10N4O2
