I think the correct answer from the choices listed above is option B. <span>Of its 6 electrons, 4 are valence electrons, a carbon atom can form 4 covalent bonds with other elements. It is the 4 valence electrons available that allows this.

Hope this answers the question.</span>

What is the pressure in a gas container that is connected to an open-end U-tube manometer if the pressure of the atmosphere is 7
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

The pressure in the gas is 656mmHg

Explanation:

In calculating the pressure of the gas;

step 1: convert the height of the mercury arm to mmHg

9.60cm = 96.0 mmHg

step 2: convert 752 torr to mmHg

I torr is 1 mmHg

752 torr = 752mmHg

Step 3: since the level of mercury in the container is higher than the level of mercury exposed to the atmosphere, we substrate the values to obtain our pressure.

So, 752mmHg - 96mmHg = 656mmHg

The pressure in the gas container is therefore 656mmHg.

N. B : if the mercury arm is in lower position, you add.

The Law of conservation of mass states that  option C: matter is neither created nor destroyed.

<h3>What is the law of conservation of matter?</h3>

Physical and chemical changes can cause matter to transform into different forms, but no matter what happens, matter is always conserved. There is no creation or destruction of matter; the amount of matter is the same before and after the transformation.

The principle of matter conservation. argues that matter cannot be generated or destroyed during a chemical reaction. The same number of atoms exist before and after the alterations even though the matter may shift from one form to another. reactant.

Therefore, According to the principle of mass conservation, neither chemical processes nor physical changes can create or destroy mass in an isolated system. The mass of the products and reactants of a chemical reaction must be equal, in accordance with the law of conservation of mass.
