Answer:

Explanation:

AMU stands for atomic mass unit. It is used to define the mass of an atom.

1 amu is defined as the mas of one twelfth of the mass of one carbon - 12 atom.

1 amu = mass of 1/12 of one carbon 12 atom

It is said to be that 1 amu is the average mass of one proton and one neutron.

A gas has an initial volume of 168 cm3 at a temperature of 255 K and a pressure of 1.6 atm. The pressure of the gas decreases to
erastovalidia [21]
Would presume you are asked to find the volume, since there is no second volume.

By General Gas Law:

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

1.6 * 168 /255 = 1.3*V₂/285

V₂ = 1.6 * 168 * 285 / (1.3*255)

V₂ = 231.095

Final volume ≈ 231 cm³

Time period from one noon to the next
matrenka [14]
That's the period of time known as one solar "day". We subdivide it into 24 slices which we call "hours". Using this system of time units, the day is about 4 minutes longer than one complete axial rotation of the Earth.
