Since the container of the gas is rigid, the volume of the gas will remain constant. Therefore, when the number of particles were decreased in half then the pressure will also be half of the original given they both are subjected to the same temperature.

PV = nRT

V, T and R are constants so they can be lumped together to a constant k.

P/n = k
P1/n1 = P2/n2

since n2 = n1/2
P1/n1 = P2/<span>n1/2</span>
P2 = P1/2

Three elements are represented by the letters A, B, and C. the three elements have the same number of valence electrons. Element
AfilCa [17]
Answer:
A- beryllium
B- calcium
C- magnesium

Explanation
NOTE: all element in group 2 have 2 balance electrons

First let’s start with B- number of electrons= number of protons which is equal to the atomic number. therefore, the answer is calcium as it’s atomic number is 20

C- magnesium will have three energy levels considering it has 12 electrons (2,8,2).

A- beryllium is the lightest one in group 2 as it has the atomic mass of 9.0122.
