Use Boyle's Law of Pressure: P1 x V1 = P2 x V2. Givens: P1=0.9 atm V1= 4 P2= 0.9 atm Find: V2 Equation: 0.9 atm x 4 x 4 L = 0.20 atm x V2Solve: 36 atmL= 0.20 atm x V2 18 : = V2 Short answer: The new volume is 104 ml.
2HgO=2Hg + O2
433,18 g. = 32 g
x. = 250 g
x= 3 384,21875 g of HgO is needed
The empirical formula for the unknown compound would be: C2H4O (2 molecules of Carbon, 4 molecules of Hydrogen, and 1 molecule of Oxygen)
The most likely answer is the boiling point and freezing point of water. The Celsius scale starts at the freezing point of water (0°C) and than scaled so that 100°C fell on the boiling point of water.
I hope this helps. Let me know if anything is unclear.
