Methane is lighter than air, having a specific gravity of 0.554. It is only slightly soluble in water. It burns readily in air, forming carbon dioxide and water vapour; the flame is pale, slightly luminous, and very hot. The boiling point of methane is −162 °C (−259.6 °F) and the melting point is −182.5 °C (−296.5 °F). Methane in general is very stable, but mixtures of methane and air, with the methane content between 5 and 14 percent by volume, are explosive. Explosions of such mixtures have been frequent in coal mines and collieries and have been the cause of many mine disasters.

Answer:

V₂ → 106.6 mL

Explanation:

We apply the Ideal Gases Law to solve the problem. For the two situations:

P . V = n . R . T

Moles are still the same so → P. V / R. T = n

As R is a constant, the formula to solve this is: P . V / T

P₁ . V₁ / T₁ = P₂ .V₂ / T₂ Let's replace data:

(1.20 atm . 73mL) / 112°C = (0.55 atm . V₂) / 75°C

((87.6 mL.atm) / 112°C) . 75°C = 0.55 atm . V₂

58.66 mL.atm = 0.55 atm . V₂

58.66 mL.atm / 0.55 atm = V₂ → 106.6 mL

Answer :

'n' specifies → (B) The energy and average distance from the nucleus.

'l' specifies → (C) The subshell orbital shape.

'ml' specifies → (A) The orbital orientation.

Explanation :

Principle Quantum Numbers : It describes the size of the orbital. It is represented by n. n = 1,2,3,4....

Azimuthal Quantum Number : It describes the shape of the orbital. It is represented as 'l'. The value of l ranges from 0 to (n-1). For l = 0,1,2,3... the orbitals are s, p, d, f...

Magnetic Quantum Number : It describes the orientation of the orbitals. It is represented as $m_l$ . The value of this quantum number ranges from $(-l\text{ to }+l)$ . When l = 2, the value of

Spin Quantum number : It describes the direction of electron spin. This is represented as $m_s$ . The value of this is $+\frac{1}{2}$ for upward spin and $-\frac{1}{2}$ for downward spin.
