Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

Atomic number of argon is 18 and its electronic configuration is 1s^{2}2s^{2}2p^{6}3s^{2}3p^{6}.

Also, it is known that number of electrons in K, L and M shells of argon are 2, 8, 8.

Thus, we can conclude that an atom of argon in the ground state tends not to bond with an atom of a different element because the argon atom has a total of eight valence electrons.

So, as per the octet rule, last sub-shell of argon is completely filled. Hence, it will not form any bond with any other atom.

Need help please omg Perform each of the following conversions being sure to set up the appropriate conversion factor in each ca
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

The answer to your question is:

a) 31.75 cm

b) 0.475 miles

c) 2.44 yards

d) 11496.04 inches

Explanation:

Convert

a)           12.5 in to cm

         1 in ------------------- 2.54 cm

       12.5 in ----------------    x

            x = 12.5(2.54)/1 = 31.75/ = 31.75 cm

b)          2513 ft to miles

           1 mile -------------- 5280 ft

           x miles ------------ 2513 ft

        x = 2513(1)/5280 = 0.475 miles

c) 2.23 m to yards

              1 m -------------   1,094 yards

            2.23 m ----------     x

       x= 2.23x1.094/1 = 2.44 yards

d)  292 m to inches

            1 m ---------------- 39.37 inches

          292 m -------------     x

    x = 292 x 39.37/1 = 11496.04 inches

If 345.1 g of CO2 are placed in a vessel whose volume is 32.1 L at a temperature of 20.0oC, what will the pressure be? (R= 0.082
Finger [1]

Answer:

5.88atm

Explanation:

First, we obtain the number of mole of CO2 present in the vessel. This is illustrated below:

Molar Mass of CO2 = 12 + (2x16) = 12 + 32 = 44g/mol

Mass of CO2 from the question = 345.1g

Number of mole of CO2 =?

Number of mole = Mass/Molar Mass

Number of mole of CO2 = 345.1/44

= 7.84moles

Now we can easily calculate the pressure by doing the following:

Data obtained from the question include:

V (volume) = 32.1 L

T (temperature) = 20°C = 20 + 273 = 293K

R (gas constant) = 0.0821atm*L/mole*K

n (number of mole) = 7.84moles

P (pressure) =?

We will be making use of the ideal gas equation PV = nRT to calculate the pressure

PV = nRT

P = nRT/V

P = 7.84 x 0.0821 x 293/32.1

P = 5.88atm

Therefore, the pressure is 5.88atm
