If a gas sample has a pressure of 30.7 kPa at 0.00*C, by how much does the temperature have to decrease to lower the pressure to
Scrat [10]

Answer:

                      252.68 K  or   -20.46 °C

Explanation:

                    According to Gay-Lussac's Law, "Pressure and Temperature at given volume are directly proportional to each other".

Mathematically,

                                              P₁ / T₁  =  P₂ / T₂   ---- (1)

Data Given:

                  P₁  =  30.7 kPa

                  T₁  =  0.00 °C  =  273.15 K

                  P₂  =  28.4 kPa

                  T₂  =  <u>???</u>

Solving equation for T₂,

                  T₂  =  P₂ T₁ / P₁

Putting values,

                  T₂  =  28.4 kPa × 273.15 K / 30.7 kPa

                  T₂  =  252.68 K  or   -20.46 °C

I performed an experiment and mixed copper nitrate and potassium iodide. When they reacted, they formed a precipitate, even thou
Alexus [3.1K]

Answer:

2Cu2^+ + 2I^- ----> 2Cu^+ + I2

Explanation:

The reaction performed in the experiment is;

2 Cu(NO3)2 + 4 KI → 2 CuI (s) + 4 KNO3 + I2

The iodide ions reduces Cu^2+ to Cu^+ which is insoluble in water hence the precipitate. This is so because iodine is a good oxidizing agent seeing that it requires one electron to fill its outermost shell. Potassium on the other hand is a good reducing agent since it easily looses its one electron.

The oxidation - reduction equation is as follows;

2Cu2^+ + 2e ----> 2Cu^+ reduction half equation

2I^- ----> I2 + 2e. Oxidation half equation

Balanced redox reaction equation;

2Cu2^+ + 2I^- ----> 2Cu^+ + I2

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

Answer:

See explaination

Explanation:

Reaction between p- toluidine and o- vaniline to form imine.This reaction does occur in the presence of a acidic source.

Here the -OH group in the o- vaniline is quite acidic so it acts a internal acidic catalyst. Hence the reaction occurred in the absence of any external acidic source.The reaction mechanism is given at the attached file.

please kindly see attachment.
