Putting glue on something, because once it is set in you cannot change it back.
Answer:
24.24 L
Explanation:
Boyle’s law, also called Mariotte’s law, a relation concerning the compression and expansion of a gas at constant temperature.
This empirical relation, formulated by the physicist Robert Boyle in 1662, states that the pressure (p) of a given quantity of gas varies inversely with its volume (v) at constant temperature; i.e., in equation form, pv = k, a constant.
Real gases obey Boyle’s law at sufficiently low pressures, although the product pv generally decreases slightly at higher pressures, where the gas begins to depart from ideal behaviour.
As, PV = k
P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂
Given P₁ = 101 KPa
V₁ = 6 L
P₂ = 25 kPa
So, V₂ = P₁ V₁ /P₂ = 101 *6/25 = 24.24 L
The empirical formula for the compound is - P₂O₅
the empirical formula is the simplest ratio of whole numbers of components in a compound.
molecular formula is the actual ratio of components in a compound.
we have to first find the number of empirical units in the molecular formula
molecular mass - 283.89 g/mol
mass of empirical formula - 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 283.89 g/mol / 283.8 g
number of empirical units - 1.000
therefore empirical formula = molecular formula
molecular formula - P₂O₅
To find the empirical formula you would first need to find the moles of each element:
58.8g/ 12.0g = 4.9 mol C
9.9g/ 1.0g = 9.9 mol H
31.4g/ 16.0g = 1.96 O
Then you divide by the smallest number of moles of each:
4.9/1.96 = 2.5
9.9/1.96 = 6
1.96/1.96 = 1
Since there is 2.5, you find the least number that makes each moles a whole number which is 2.
So the empirical formula is C5H12O2.
