To solve this we assume that the gas inside is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant pressure and number of moles of the gas the ratio T/V is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

 

T1 / V1 = T2 / V2

 

T2 = T1 x V2 / V1

 

T2 = 280 x 20.0 / 10

Answer is: new temperature is A. 140 K.

V₁(gas) = 20.0 L; initial volume.

T₁(gas) = 280 K.; initial temperature

V₂(gas) = 10.0 L; final volume

T₂(gas) = ?; final temperature.

Charle's Law (the Temperature-Volume Law): the volume of a given amount of gas held at constant pressure is directly proportional to the Kelvin temperature:

V₁/T₁ = V₂/T₂.

20.0 L/ 280 K = 10.0 L /  T₂.

T₂ = 140 K.

As the volume goes down, the temperature also goes down, and vice-versa.

The half-life of tritium (H-3) is 12.3 years. If 48.0mg of tritium is released from a nuclear power plant during the course of a
Rudiy27

Answer:

The amount left after 49.2 years is 3mg.

Explanation:

Given data:

Half life of tritium = 12.3 years

Total mass pf tritium = 48.0 mg

Mass remain after 49.2 years = ?

Solution:

First of all we will calculate the number of half lives.

Number of half lives = T elapsed/ half life

Number of half lives =  49.2 years /12.3 years

Number of half lives =  4

Now we will calculate the amount left after 49.2 years.

At time zero 48.0 mg

At first half life = 48.0mg/2 = 24 mg

At second half life = 24mg/2 = 12 mg

At 3rd half life = 12 mg/2 = 6 mg

At 4th half life =  6mg/2 = 3mg

The amount left after 49.2 years is 3mg.

If 2.00 moles of H₂ and 1.55 moles of O₂ react how many moles of H₂O can be produced in the reaction below?
jekas [21]

Answer:

2 mol H₂O

Explanation:

With the reaction,

  • 2H₂(g) + O₂(g) → 2 H₂O(g)

1.55 moles of O₂ would react completely with ( 2*1.55 ) 3.1 moles of H₂. There are not as many moles of H₂, thus H₂ is the limiting reactant.

Now we <u>calculate the moles of H₂O produced</u>, <em>starting from the moles of limiting reactant</em>:

  • 2.00 mol H₂  * \frac{2molH_2O}{2mol H_2} = 2 mol H₂O
