Answer:
Explanation:
Oxygen is one of the most abundant elements on this planet. Our atmosphere is 21% free elemental oxygen. Oxygen is also extensively combined in compounds in the earths crust, such as water (89%) and in mineral oxides. Even the human body is 65% oxygen by mass.
Free elemental oxygen occurs naturally as a gas in the form of diatomic molecules, O2 (g). Oxygen exhibits many unique physical and chemical properties. For example, oxygen is a colorless and odorless gas, with a density greater than that of air, and a very low solubility in water. In fact, the latter two properties greatly facilitate the collection of oxygen in this lab. Among the unique chemical properties of oxygen are its ability to support respiration in plants and animals, and its ability to support combustion.
In this lab, oxygen will be generated as a product of the decomposition of hydrogen peroxide. A catalyst is used to speed up the rate of the decomposition reaction, which would otherwise be too slow to use as a source of oxygen. The catalyst does not get consumed by the reaction, and can be collected for re-use once the reaction is complete. The particular catalyst used in this lab is manganese(IV) oxide.
Because it throws the earth off balance and if it does it often enough then it will soon add up.

Answer:</h3>
812 kPa
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- According to Boyle's law pressure and volume of a fixed mass are inversely proportional at constant absolute temperature.
- Mathematically,
At varying pressure and volume;
P1V1=P2V2
In this case;
Initial volume, V1 = 2.0 L
Initial pressure, P1 = 101.5 kPa
Final volume, V1 = 0.25 L
We are required to determine the new pressure;
Replacing the known variables with the values;
= 812 kPa
Thus, the pressure of air inside the balloon after squeezing is 812 kPa
Answer is: reaction is second order with respect to a.
This second order reaction<span> is proportional to the square of the concentration of reactant a.
</span>rate of reaction = k[a]².
k is second order rate constant and have unit M⁻¹·s⁻¹.
Integrated rate law for this reaction: <span><span>1/[a]</span>=<span>1/<span>[a]</span></span></span>₀ <span>+ kt.
t is time in seconds..</span>
