Answer:

2.83 g

Explanation:

At constant temperature and pressure, Using Avogadro's law

\frac {V_1}{n_1}=\frac {V_2}{n_2}

Given ,  

V₁ = 2.12 L

V₂ = 3.12 L

n₁ = 0.120 moles

n₂ = ?

Using above equation as:

\frac{2.12}{0.120}=\frac{3.12}{n_2}

2.12n_2=0.12\cdot \:3.12

2.12n_2=0.3744

n_2=\frac{0.3744}{2.12}

n_2=0.17660

n₂ = 0.17660 moles

Molar mass of methane gas = 16.05 g/mol

So, Mass = Moles*Molar mass = 0.17660 * 16.05 g = 2.83 g

<u>2.83 g  are in the piston.</u>

What is responsible for the larger size of an anion in comparison with the atom from which it is form?
GarryVolchara [31]

Answer:

electron-electron repulsion

Explanation:

When electrons add into valence shell of neutral elements, the element assumes a negative oxidation state. With this, the number of electrons having (-) charges will be larger than the number of protons having positive (+) charges. As a result, the extra electrons repel one another (i.e., like charges repel) and a larger radius is the result.  

In contrast, when cations are formed, electrons are removed from the valence level (oxidation) producing an element having a greater number of protons than electrons. The larger number of protons will function to attract the electron cloud with a greater force that results in a contraction of atomic radius and a smaller spherical volume than the neutral unionized element.    

To visualize, see attached chart that shows atomic and ionic radii before and after ionization of the elements.

What is the ground state electron configuration for B3+ ?
Arisa [49]

The ground state electron configuration is the arrangement of electrons around the nucleus of an atom with lower energy levels. The electrons occupying the orbitals of varying energy levels naturally falls towards the lowest energy state or ground state.
