Answer:
1) The Kelvin temperature cannot be negative
2) The Kelvin degree is written as K, not ºK
Explanation:
The temperature of an object can be written using different temperature scales.
The two most important scales are:
- Celsius scale: the Celsius degree is indicated with ºC. It is based on the freezing point of water (placed at 0ºC) and the boiling point of water (100ºC).
- Kelvin scale: the Kelvin is indicated with K. it is based on the concept of "absolute zero" temperature, which is the temperature at which matter stops moving, and it is placed at zero Kelvin (0 K), so this scale cannot have negative temperatures, since 0 K is the lowest possible temperature.
The expression to convert from Celsius degrees to Kelvin is:
Therefore in this problem, since the student reported a temperature of -3.5 ºK, the errors done are:
1) The Kelvin temperature cannot be negative
2) The Kelvin degree is written as K, not ºK
Answer: 7.693 L
Explanation:
To calculate the new volume, we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.
The equation given by this law is:
where,
are initial pressure and volume.
are final pressure and volume.
We are given:
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Thus new volume of the gas is 7.693 L

Answer:
1. Na₂O
2. AlF₃
3. MgO
4. Ca₃P₂
Explanation:
1. Na⁺ and O²⁻
An ionic compound will be formed when two ions of opposite charge attract each other.
The positive ion is called cation and the negative ion is called anion.
Thus, every ionic compound has a cation and an anion electrostatically bonded.
The ions must combine in a proportion that genders a neutral compound: so you must have as many cations as negative charge has one anion and as many anions as positive charge has one cation.
This is, if the cation has charge +x, there will be x anions, and if the anion has charge -y, there will be y cations.
Simbolically:
As you see, the subscripts for each element in the chemical formula are obtained by the exchage of the charges of the ions.
Then, for Na⁺ and O²⁻, the subscript for Na will be 2 and the subscript for O will be 1; and the formula of the ionic compound formed by this pair ot ions is:
2. Al³⁺ and F⁻
Thus the ionic compound formed by this pair of ions is:
3. Mg²⁺ and S²⁻
That results in the formula: Mg₂S₂
Except for some special compounds, the chemical formula is simplified, dividing by the least common denominator. In this case, that means that the two 2 subscripts are simplified to 1, and the final chemical formula for the ionic compound formed by this pair of ions is:
4. Ca²⁺ and P³⁻
Hence, the ionic compound formed by these two ions is:
