Answer:

<h2>A. The image shows Boyle's Law because volume decreases as pressure increases.</h2>

Explanation:

According to Boyle's Law, at constant temperature, pressure and volume have inverse relation that is as pressure would increase, volume would decrease.

According to Charles Law, at constant pressure, the volume is directly proportional to temperature.

According to the given graph and diagram, the temperature is constant and volume and pressure have inverse relation.

Thus, option A is correct.

A 265-mL flask contains pure helium at a pressure of 751 torrs. A second flask with a volume of 465 mL contains pure argon at a

Nadya [2.5K]

Answer:

Total Pressure = 745.6 torr

Partial Pressure of He = 272.8 torr

Partial Pressure of Ar = 472.8 torr

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the flask helium = 265 mL

Pressure in the helium flask = 751 torr = 751/760 atm

Volume of the flask argon = 465 mL

Pressure in the argon flask = 727 torr = 727/760 atm

The total pressure exerted by a gaseous mixture is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each individual component in a gas mixture.

Step 2: Calculate total volume

Total volume = 265 mL + 465 mL = 730 mL = 0.730 L

Step 3: Boyle's Law:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = total pressure gas exerts in its own flask

⇒ with V1 = volume of flask with stopcock valve closed

⇒ with P2 = partial pressure of gas exerts on total volume of both flasks when stopcock valve is opened

⇒ with V2 = total volume of both flasks with stopcock valve opened

Helium using Boyle's Law equation from above:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = Pressure of helium = 751 /760 = 0.98816 atm

⇒ with V1 = volume of helium = 0.265 L

⇒ with P2 = The new partial pressure of helium

⇒ with V2 = total volume = 0.730 L

(0.98816 atm)(0.265L)=P2(0.730L)

P2=0.359 atm

Argon using Boyle's Law equation from above:

P1V1=P2V2

⇒ with P1 = Pressure of argon = 727/760 = 0.95658 atm

⇒ with V1 = volume of argon = 0.465 L

⇒ with P2 = The new partial pressure of argon

⇒ with V2 = total volume = 0.730 L

(0.95658 atm)(0.465L)=P2(0.730L)

P2=0.609 atm

Step 4: Convert pressure in atm to torr

Pressure helium = 0.359 atm = 272.8 torr

Pressure argon = 0.609 atm = 472.8 torr

Step 5: Calculate Total pressure

Ptotal = P(He)+P(Ar)

⇒ Pt = total pressure of the gas mixture

⇒ P(He) = partial pressure of Helium

⇒ P(Ar) = partial pressure of Argon

Pt = 272.8 torr + 472.8 torr

Pt = 745.6 torr

Total Pressure = 745.6 torr

Partial Pressure of He = 272.8 torr

Partial Pressure of Ar = 472.8 torr

Answer:

In the 1770s, the English clergyman Joseph Priestley (who is credited with the discovery of O2) established the production of oxygen by vegetables recognizing that the process was, apparently, the inverse of animal respiration, which consumed such chemical element.

Explanation:

In 1772, Joseph Priestley in his Recherches sur diversces especes d'air differentiated the air of animal respiration from that emitted by vegetables in the presence of light. Of the latter, which he called "dephlogistic air", he highlighted his purifying property of the environment indicating that: plants far from affecting the air in the same way as animal respiration, produce the opposite effects, and tend to preserve the sweet and healthy atmosphere , when it becomes harmful as a result of the life and breathing of the animals or their death and their rot.

In 1780, Jean Ingeshousz in his Experiences sur les vegetaux completed and reaffirmed the observations of Joseph Priestley. At the same time, he could deny Charles Bonnet's hypothesis, by demonstrating that the air expelled from the leaves comes from inside, and that the stimulating factor of the gaseous emission was not the heat produced by the sun, but the intensity of the light .

It was, finally, Jean Senebier that between 1782 and 1784, found that the "fixed air" dissolved in the water favors the vegetation. From these observations, he hypothesized that "fixed air" (carbon dioxide) is absorbed by the plants, which take it from the atmosphere with the humidity it has and in which it is mixed. Once this gas has been captured, both from the atmosphere and from the ground, it is decomposed in the presence of light by the leaves, releasing the "vital air" (oxygen) and leaving the carbon in the plant.

Thus, at the end of the century the participation of the atmosphere in plant dynamics was already seated, although the how and why of this participation were still unknown and no theory had been formulated to explain the nutritional process as a whole.
