Answer:

Pumice is a light colored, porous igneous rock. It forms during volcanic eruption occurring under water. It is an aggregate of concrete. Because of their porous nature they float over the surface of water. With time the pumice rocks undergoes with several changes including weathering, erosion, and transportation. The extent of heat and pressure, making the sediments of the pumice rocks into metamorphic rocks distinct in the chemical and physical composition of the parent material.

The volume of an ideal gas is held constant. Determine the ratio P2/P1 of the final pressure to the initial pressure when the te
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

A. P₂ / P₁ = 2

B. P₂ / P₁ = 1.1

Explanation:

A. Determination of the ratio P₂/P₁

Volume = constant

Initial temperature (T₁) = 46 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 92 K

Final pressure /Initial pressure (P₂/P₁) =?

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

P₁/46 = P₂/92

Cross multiply

46 × P₂ = P₁ × 92

Divide both side by P₁

46 × P₂ / P₁ = 92

Divide both side by 46

P₂ / P₁ = 92 / 46

P₂ / P₁ = 2

B. Determination of the ratio P₂/P₁

Volume = constant

Initial temperature (T₁) = 35.4 °C = 35.4 + 273 = 308.4 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 69.0 °C = 69 + 273 = 342 K

Final pressure /Initial pressure (P₂/P₁) =?

P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂

P₁/308.4 = P₂/342

Cross multiply

308.4 × P₂ = P₁ × 342

Divide both side by P₁

308.4 × P₂ / P₁ = 342

Divide both side by 308.4

P₂ / P₁ = 342 / 308.4

P₂ / P₁ = 1.1

As fuel is burned in an airplane, it seems to disappear from the tank, suggesting that matter is destroyed during the reaction.
gregori [183]

Answer:

Well we know that matter is neither created nor destroyed by chemical reactions or physical transformations. It is not destroyed it simply was converted to gas. =D

Allena and Charissa were discussing whether Cl2 is an element or a compound. Allena said that it is an element because it has on
kobusy [5.1K]
Answer is: Allena is correct. It is an element because it is only made of chlorine atoms.
A chemical element bonded to an identical chemical element is not a chemical compound since it is made from only one element and not from two different elements. Chlorine is molecule, but not compound.
