Answer:Temperature increases

Explanation: As the gas in the container is an ideal gas so it should follow the ideal gas equation, the equation of state.

We know ideal gas equation to be PV=nRT where

   P=pressure

   V=Volume

   T=Temperature

   R=Real gas constant

   n=Number of moles

since the gas is insulated such that no heat goes into or out of the system .

When we compress the ideal gas using a piston, Thermodynamically it means that work is done on the system by the surroundings.

Now as the ideal gas is been compressed so the volume of the gas would decrease and slowly a time will reach when no more gas can be compressed that is there cannot be any further decrease in volume of the gas.

From the equation PV=nRT

Once there is no further compression is possible hence volume becomes constant so pressure of the ideal gas becomes directly proportional to the temperature as n and R are constants. Also as the pressure and volume are inversely related so an decrease in volume would lead to an increase in pressure.

As the ideal  gas is compressed so the pressure of the gas would increase since the gas molecules have smaller volume available after compression hence the gas molecules would quite frequently have collisions with other gas molecules or piston and this collision would lead to increase in speed of the gas molecules and  so the pressure would increase .

The increase in pressure would lead to an increase in temperature as show by the above ideal gas equation because the pressure and temperature are directly related.

So here we can say that work done on the system by surroundings leads to increase in temperature of the system.

stich3 [128]

Answer:48kg of SiO2, 0.5kg of Al2O3, and 1.5kg of B2O3

Will be the final product

Explanation:

I) 96wt% of SiO2 will amount to 96/100*50 = 0.96*50=48kg of SiO2

ii) 1wt% of Al2O3 will amount to 1/100*50 = 0.01*50=0.5kg of Al2O3

III) 3wt% of B2O3 will amount to 3/100*50 = 0.03*50=1.5kg of B2O3..

The overall product form 48+ 0.5+1.5= 50kg

What will be the volume occupied by 2.5 moles of nitrogen gas exerting 1.75 atm of pressure at 475K?
Marina86 [1]

Answer:

THE VOLUME OF THE NITROGEN GAS AT 2.5  MOLES , 1.75 ATM AND 475 K IS 55.64 L

Explanation:

Using the ideal gas equation

PV = nRT

P = 1.75 atm

n = 2.5 moles

T = 475 K

R = 0.082 L atm/mol K

V = unknown

Substituting the variables into the equation we have:

V = nRT / P

V = 2.5 * 0.082 * 475 / 1.75

V = 97.375 / 1.75

V = 55.64 L

The volume of the 2.5 moles of nitrogen gas exerted by 1.75 atm at 475 K is 55.64 L
