A 256 mL sample of HCl gas is in a flask where it exerts a force (pressure) of 67.5 mmHg. What is the pressure of the gas if it

were transferred to a 135 mL flask

Answer:

The pressure in the new flask would be 128\; \rm mmHg if the \rm HCl here acts like an ideal gas.  

Explanation:

Assume that the \rm HCl sample here acts like an ideal gas. By Boyle's Law, the pressure P of the gas should be inversely proportional to its volume V.

For example, let the initial volume and pressure of the sample be V_1 and P_1. The new volume V_2 and pressure P_2 of this sample shall satisfy the equation: P_1 \cdot V_1 =P_2 \cdot V_2.

In this question,

  • The initial volume of the gas is V_1= 256\; \rm mL.
  • The initial pressure of the gas is P_1 = 67.5\; \rm mmHg.
  • The new volume of the gas is V_2 = 135\; \rm mL.

The goal is to find the new pressure of this gas, P_2.

Assume that this sample is indeed an ideal gas. Then the equation P_1 \cdot V_1 =P_2 \cdot V_2 should still hold. Rearrange the equation to separate the unknown, P_2. Note: make sure that the units for V_1 and V_2 are the same before evaluating. That way, the unit of

\begin{aligned} & P_2\\ &= \frac{P_1 \cdot V_1}{V_2} \\ &= \frac{256\; \rm mL \times 67.5\; \rm mmHg}{135\; \rm mL} \\ & \approx 128\; \rm mmHg\end{aligned}.

Some people believe that the Moon’s phases are caused by Earth’s shadows on the Moon. Is this true? Use your model to explain.
Kisachek [45]

<u>Answer:</u>   False

<em>Some people believe that the Moon’s phases are caused by Earth’s shadows on the Moon is false.</em>

<u>Explanation:</u>

<em>Some people believe that the Moon’s phases are caused by Earth’s shadows on the Moon is their misconception. </em>

The phases depend on its place relative with sun and earth.The phases of moon are new moon,waxing crescent, first quarter, waxing gibbon, full moon, wanning gibbon,last quarter, wanning crescent,new moon.

<em>For example, </em>

When<em> moon, earth, and sun</em> are exactly in the same line and moon lies in between earth and sun, the sun illuminates the back part of the moon which is not visible from earth. <em>This forms new moon</em>.

<em>So only relative positions matter in the phases of moon. </em>

How much heat is required to evaporate a gram of water at room temperature?
Goshia [24]
First, the water must be raised to a temperature of 100 degrees - this requires 4.181 joule/(degree x gram). For example, if your "room temperature" is 20 degrees, multiply that by 8.Then you have to actually evaporate it - that costs 2260 joules/gram.

If you rewrite the following word equation as a balanced chemical equation, what will the coefficient and symbol for fluorine be
Lorico [155]

The given word equation is:

Nitrogen trifluoride-->Nitrogen + Fluorine

The chemical formula of nitrogen trifluoride is NF_{3} and that of nitrogen gas is N_{2}and fluorine gas is F_{2}.

The balanced chemical equation representing the decomposition reaction of nitrogen trifluoride to nitrogen and fluorine will be,

2NF_{3}-->N_{2}+3F_{2}

The chemical formula of fluorine gas will be F_{2} as fluorine exists as a diatomic gas in it's pure state. The coefficient of fluorine will be 3

Therefore, the correct answer is a) 3F2

vitfil [10]
[Co(CN)₆]³⁻ → Yellow
[Co(NH₃)₆]³⁺ → Orange
[CoF₆]³⁻ → Blue
Explanation:
- All the given compounds have octahedral geometry but the ligand in each are different with the same metal ion.

- Ligands strength order:     CN⁻ > NH₃ > F⁻ 

- The ligand CN will act as a strong field ligand so that the splitting is maximum when compared to NH₃ and F⁻

- If the splitting is more, the energy required for transition is more, and the wavelength is inversely proportional to energy.

- So CN complex will absorb at lower wavelength (yellow color)
