Answer:

Complex formation

Explanation:

At first sight, one may think that a reaction between calcium oxalate and platinum metal is impossible considering the relative positions of the two metals in the electrochemical series.

However, in solution, calcium oxalate dissociates into calcium and oxalate ions. When platinum is added to this solution, a complex is formed between the platinum ions and the oxalate ions. Hence a reaction occurs for this reason.

Answer:

<em>The reaction that occurs between calcium oxalate and platinum is called Complex formation</em>.

Explanation:

<em>First of all, one might have this belief  that there is no possible way a reaction would occur between platinum metal and  calcium oxalate, it is taking into consideration because of  the relative positions of the two metals in the electro-chemical series.</em>

<em>But in a solution, calcium oxalate seperate into oxalate and calcium ions. when the platinum is put oradded to this solution, a complex is formed between the oxalate ions and platinum ions. then what occurs next is a reaction. </em>

Calculate the decrease in temperarure when 2.00 L at 20.0 degrees celsius is compressed to 1.00 L.
Serga [27]
I suspect that the pressure of this change is constant therefore

The equation is used from the combined gas law. (When pressure is constant both P's will cancel out P/P = 1)
V/T = V/T
Initial   Change

Initially we have 2L at 20 degress what temperature will be at 1L.

2/20 = 1/T
0.1 = 1/T
0.1T = 1
T = 1/0.1
T = 10 degress celsius.

Hope this helps if you won't be able to understand what is the combined gas law just tell me :).
