It has a decrease in oxidation number

The process of reduction is when the oxidation number of a chemical specie is lowered, or when the specie gains electrons. A chemical specie undergoing reduction will act as an oxidizing agent, because it will oxidize the other reactant by itself getting reduced.

If a sample of air initially occupies 240L at 2 atm how much pressure is required to compress it to 20L at constant temperature
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

24 atm.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 240 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 2 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 20 L

Temperature = constant

Final pressure (P₂) =?

The final pressure required, can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

2 × 240 = P₂ × 20

480 = P₂ × 20

Divide both side by 20

P₂ = 480 / 20

P₂ = 24 atm

Thus, the final pressure required is 24 atm.
