Answer:
The pressure, when the volume is reduced to 7.88L, is 846 torr (option A)
Explanation:
Step 1: Data given
The temperature of a gas = 25.0°C
AT 25 °C the gas occupies a volume of 10.0L and a pressure of 667 torr.
The volume reduces to 7.88 L but the temperature stays constant.
Step 2: Boyle's law
(P1*V1)/T1 = (P2*V2)/T2
⇒ Since the temperature stays constant, we can simplify to:
P1*V1 = P2*V2
⇒ with P1 = the initial pressure 667 torr
⇒ with V1 = the initial volume = 10.0 L
⇒ with P2 = the final pressure = TO BE DETERMINED
⇒ with V2 = the final volume = 7.88L
P2 = (P1*V1)/V2
P2 = (667*10.0)/7.88
P2 = 846 torr
The pressure, when the volume is reduced to 7.88L, is 846 torr (option A)
C) 3 Moles
This is because of the molecular structure shown in the image
Gases are less dense and the molecules are farther apart which means that it can be compressed
Turns into vapor. not all of the molecules are liquid have the same energy
