40. Because sodium chloride is NaCl
Answer:
6
Explanation:
The atomic number for phosphorous is 15, meaning that it has 15 electrons (and protons). The first and second shells would be filled up with 2 and 8 electrons respectively, leaving 5 which goes on the third shell, which is also the valence shell, meaning phosphorous has 5 valence electrons.
Since the atomic number of sulfur is 16, the first and second shells are also filled up with 2 and 8 electrons respectively, leaving 6 to be on the third shell, the valence shell. Hence, sulfur has 6 valence electrons.

Answer:
The amount of work done on the system is 18234 J and the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.
Explanation:
Thermodynamic work is called the transfer of energy between the system and the environment by methods that do not depend on the difference in temperatures between the two. When a system is compressed or expanded, a thermodynamic work is produced which is called pressure-volume work (p - v).
The pressure-volume work done by a system that compresses or expands at constant pressure is given by the expression:
W system= -p*∆V
Where:
- W system: Work exchanged by the system with the environment. Its unit of measure in the International System is the joule (J)
- p: Pressure. Its unit of measurement in the International System is the pascal (Pa)
- ∆V: Volume variation (∆V = Vf - Vi). Its unit of measurement in the International System is cubic meter (m³)
In this case:
- p= 10 atm= 1.013*10⁶ Pa (being 1 atm= 101325 Pa)
- ΔV= 2 L- 20 L= -18 L= -0.018 m³ (being 1 L=0.001 m³)
Replacing:
W system= -1.013*10⁶ Pa* (-0.018 m³)
Solving:
W system= 18234 J
<u><em>The amount of work done on the system is 18234 J and the final positive sign means that this work corresponds to an increase in internal energy of the gas.</em></u>
The postulate of Dalton's atomic theory which is a result of the law of conservation of mass is: Atoms are indivisible particles, which can neither be created nor destroyed in a chemical reaction.
