A hiker has packed a bag of chips as a snack. At the start of the hike the pressure was 1.5 atm and the temperature was 35*C. At

the end of the hike the temperature has dropped to a 0.5*C. What is the pressure at the end of the hike? What would you expect to happen to the bag of chips?

According to <span>Gay-Lussac's Law the temperature and Pressure are directly proportional to each other if the amount and volume of given gas are kept constant.
Mathematically for initial and final states it is expressed as,

                                          P</span>₁ / T₁  =  P₂ / T₂     ----- (1)
Data Given;
                  P₁  =  1.5 atm

                  T₁  =  35 °C + 273  =  308 K

                  P₂  =  ?

                  T₂  =  0 °C + 273  =  273 K

Solving Eq. 1 for P₂,

                                   P₂  =  P₁ T₂ / T₁

Putting values,
                                   P₂  =  (1.5 atm × 273 K) ÷ 308 K

                                   P₂  =  1.32 atm
Result:
           As the temperature is decreased so the pressure also decreases from 1.5 atm to 1.32 atm. Therefore the bag will contract.

Which of the following molecules is nonpolar?
Rudik [331]

Answer:

1. BF3 This is a trigonal planar molecule; the electron density is drawn into a cloud that circles the Boron, this is made nonpolar by the geometrically equivalent structure of the surrounding electronegative Fluorines.

2. H2O The 2 lone pairs of e- of Oxygen makes the O partially negative, the H’s, partially positive. Polar.

3. NF3 Lone pair on Nitrogen overwhelmed by the 3 incredibly electronegative Fluorines. Polar

4. CH3Br The “Soft Ion” of Bromine is negative; it is electronegative. Polar.

5. SO2 the lone pairs of Oxygen, at approximately 119°-120° angles to one another will form a reasonance structure; there will be more lone pairs about the Oxygen than the Sulfur; the Sulfur will be partially positive compared to the oxygens. Polar.

Essay
Troyanec [42]

Answer:

A radionuclide is an atom that has excess nuclear energy, making it unstable. This excess energy can be used in one of three ways: emitted from the nucleus as gamma radiation; transferred to one of its electrons to release it as a conversion electron; or used to create and emit a new particle from the nucleus. Wikipedia

The existence of isotopes contradicts part of Dalton's original atomic theory because he said all atoms of a given element are identical have the same mass size and chemical properties.
