Answer:

Elements only contain one type of atoms while compounds contain two or more types of atoms.

Explanation:

An example of an element is sodium --> Na (only Na atoms)

An example of a compound can be water --> H2O (contain H and O atoms)

*But the particles within a compound are all the same.

No. Elements are pure substances which are composed of only one type of atom. Compound are substances which are formed by two or more different types of elements that are united chemically in fixed proportions.

Answer:

4.33 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Initial volume of the balloon (V₁): 3.00 L

Initial pressure of the balloon (P₁): 765 torr

Final volume of the balloon (V₂): ?

Final pressure of the balloon (P₂): 530 torr

Step 2: Calculate the final volume of the balloon

If we consider Helium to behave as an ideal gas, we can calculate the final volume of the balloon using Boyle's law.

$P_1 \times V_1 = P_2 \times V_2\\V_2 = \frac{P_1 \times V_1}{P_2} = \frac{765torr \times 3.00L}{530torr} = 4.33 L$
