Answer:

1.84 L

Explanation:

Using the equation for reversible work:

W = -P*(V_{2} - V_{1})

Where:

W is the work done (J) = -287 J.

Since the gas did work, therefore W is negative.

P is the pressure in atm = 1.90 atm.

However, work done is in joules and pressure is in atm. We can use the values of universal gas constant as a convenient conversion unit. R = 8.314 J/(mol*K);  R = 0.0821 (L*atm)/(mol*K)

Therefore, the conversion unit is 0.0821/8.314 = 0.00987 (L*atm)/J

V_{1} is the initial volume = 0.350 L

V_{2} is the final volume = ?

Thus:

(-287 J)*0.00987 (L*atm)/J = -1.9 atm*(V_{2} - 0.350) L

V_{2} = [(287*0.00987)+(1.9*0.350)]/1.9 = (2.833+0.665)/1.9 =1.84 L

Complete the sentence. When an acid is added to water, hydroxide ions __________.
kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

The hydroxide ions decrease.

Explanation:

I got it right on the quiz. This is what I saw. Read this, "Adding water to an acid or base will change its pH. Water is mostly water molecules so adding water to an acid or base reduces the concentration of ions in the solution. When an acidic solution is diluted with water the concentration of H + ions decreases and the pH of the solution increases towards 7."

Hope this helps! Tell me if this is wrong just incase.

who reported four “element” classifications, but included some substances that were combinations of elements rather than true el
kozerog [31]
Answer: Antoine Lavoisier.

He classified the elements into four groups: elastic fluids, nonmetals, metals and earths. Some of the called elementes were not really elements (light and heat). Others were compounds, e.g. hydrochloric acid.

Two shopping carts are pushed with the same force. One cart has a larger mass than the other. How does the mass of the shopping
Harman [31]
This would problem will be answered using the concept of momentum. Momentum is the mass times the velocity, where mass is inversely proportional to the velocity. This would mean that an object with greater mass will travel at a much lesser velocity, or vice versa.

Hence, the cart with the smaller mass will accelerate faster.
