Answer:

Do not conduct electricity as solids

Explanation:

Salts are held together by electrovalent/ionic bond. Ionic bond involves the transfer of electron(s) from an atom (usually a metal) to a another atom (usually a non-metal). After the transfer, the metallic atom becomes positively charged (cation) while the non-metallic atom becomes negatively charged (anion) after receiving electron(s).

These charged particles carry electric charges when the salt is dissolved in water but do not carry electric charges in there solid form hence cannot conduct electricity in solid form.

A sample of N2 gas in a flask is heated from 27 Celcius to 150 Celcius. If the original gas is @ pressure of 1520 torr, what is

Romashka [77]

Answer:

$\large \boxed{\text{B.) 2.8 atm}}$

Explanation:

The volume and amount are constant, so we can use Gay-Lussac’s Law:

At constant volume, the pressure exerted by a gas is directly proportional to its temperature.

$\dfrac{p_{1}}{T_{1}} = \dfrac{p_{2}}{T_{2}}$

Data:

p₁ = 1520 Torr; T₁ = 27 °C

p₂ = ?; T₂ = 150 °C

Calculations:

(a) Convert the temperatures to kelvins

T₁ = ( 27 + 273.15) K = 300.15 K

T₂ = (150 + 273.15) K = 423.15 K

(b) Calculate the new pressure

$\begin{array}{rcl}\dfrac{1520}{300.15} & = & \dfrac{p_{2}}{423.15}\\\\5.064 & = & \dfrac{p_{2}}{423.15}\\\\5.064\times423.15&=&p_{2}\\p_{2} & = & \text{2143 Torr}\end{array}\\$

(c) Convert the pressure to atmospheres

$p = \text{2143 Torr} \times \dfrac{\text{1 atm}}{\text{760 Torr}} = \textbf{2.8 atm}\\\\\text{The new pressure reading will be $\large \boxed{\textbf{2.8 atm}}$}$
