I'm really sorry it's not one of the choices.
Answer:
The volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min
Explanation:
Given;
Boyle's law, PV = C
where;
P is pressure of the gas
V is volume of the gas
C is constant
Differentiate this equation using product rule:

Given;
(increasing pressure rate of the gas) = 40 kPa/min
V (volume of the gas) = 600 cm³
P (pressure of the gas) = 150 kPa
Substitute in these values in the differential equation above and calculate the rate at which the volume is decreasing (
);
(600 x 40) + (150 x
) = 0

Therefore, the volume is decreasing at 160 cm³/min
The answer is C.
Ionic compounds are those that bring together anions and cations bonded together by ionic bonds. The electrostatic forces of the different charges are significant in the bonds that make them strong hence require high energy to break them (high melting point). Due to the regular structure of ionic compound that tend to form lattices in solid form, when struck, they shatter along the lines of weakness of the lattice.
