Metals are lustrous, malleable, ductile, good conductors of heat and electricity. Other properties include: State: Metals are solids at room temperature with the exception of mercury, which is liquid at room temperature
In the reaction 2co ( g) + o2( g) → 2co2( g), the ratio of moles of oxygen used to moles of co2produced is 1:2.
Answer:
P₂ = 13.9 atm (3 sig. figs.)
Explanation:
The pressure (P), Volume (V) relationship with Temperature (T) & mass (n) held constant is an inverse proportionality. That is Boyles Law ...
P ∝ 1/V => P = k/V => k = P·V
For two pressure-volume conditions, the proportionality constant (k) remains constant where k₁ = k₂ and P₁·V₁ = P₂·V₂ => P₂ = P₁·V₁/V₂
Given:
P₁ = 1.31 atm.
V₁ = 5.51 L
P₂ = ?
V₂ = 0.520 L
V₂ = (1.31 atm)(5.51L)/(0.520L) = 13.88096154 atm (calc. ans.) = 13.9 atm (3 sig. figs.)
