Answer:

2100 kPa

Explanation:

The temperature is constant, so the only variables are pressure and volume.

We can use Boyle’s Law.

p₁V₁ = p₂V₂ Divide both sides of the equation by V₂

p₂ = p₁ × V₁/V₂

p₁ = 485 kPa; V₁ = 648 mL

p₂ = ?; V₂ = 0.15 L = 150 mL Calculate p₂

p₂ = 485 × 648/150

p₂ = 2100 kPa

What is the ability to transfer thermal energy to something else

Fofino [41]

Answer:

.Heat energy can be transferred from one object to another. The transfer or flow due to the difference in temperature between the two objects is called heat.

Explanation:

The transfer of thermal energy is called heat. In this process, thermal energy moves through a substance. For example, an ice cube has heat energy and so does a glass of lemonade.

When 7.085 grams of a hydrocarbon, CxHy, were burned in a combustion analysis apparatus, 21.71 grams of CO2 and 10.37 grams of H

Taya2010 [7]

Answer:

- Empirical:

$C_3H_7$

- Molecular:

$C_6H_{14}$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, based on the information regarding the combustion, the moles of carbon turn out:

$n_C=21.71gCO_2*\frac{1molCO_2}{44gCO_2}*\frac{1molC}{1molCO_2}=0.493molC$

Moreover, the moles of hydrogen:

$n_H=10.37gH_2O*\frac{1molH_2O}{18gH_2O}*\frac{2molH}{1molH_2O}=1.152molH$

Thus, the subscripts of carbon and hydrogen in the hydrocarbon turn out:

$C=\frac{0.4934}{0.4934}=1\\H=\frac{1.15222}{0.4934}=2.335\\CH_{2.335}$

Now, looking for a suitable whole number we obtain the following empirical formula as 2.335 times 3 is 7 for hydrogen:

$C_3H_7$

In such a way, that compound has a molar mass of 43 g/mol, thus, the whole compound's molar mass is 86.18 g/mol for which the molecular formula is twice the empirical one, therefore:

$C_6H_{14}$

Which is hexane.

Best regards.
