Its relative density causes objects to float or sink.
If the density of the substance is greater than the substance it is in, it will sink.
If the density is less than the substance it is in it will float.

if a gas sample in a balloon occupies 1.5 L at atmospheric pressure, what would be the pressure (in mmHg) if the volume was redu
Nata [24]

Answer:

1425 mmHg.

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

Initial volume (V1) = 1.5 L

Initial pressure (P1) = 1 atm

Final volume (V2) = 0.8 L

Final pressure (P2) =?

Next, we shall determine the final pressure of the gas by using the Boyle's law equation as follow:

P1V1 = P2V2

1 × 1.5 = P2 × 0.8

1.5 = P2 × 0.8

Divide both side by 0.8

P2 = 1.5/0.8

P2 = 1.875 atm

Finally, we shall convert 1.875 atm to mmHg.

This can be obtained as follow:

1 atm = 760 mmHg

Therefore,

1.875 atm = 1.875 × 760 = 1425 mmHg.

Therefore, the new pressure of the gas is 1425 mmHg.

Describe the properties of alkali metals. based on their electronic arrangement, explain whether they exist alone in nature.
saul85 [17]

The alkali metals can't exist alone in nature because of incomplete outermost shell of alkali metals.

<h3>What are the  properties of alkali metals?</h3>

The alkali metals have the high thermal and electrical conductivity. It has high lustre, ductility, and malleability as compared to other materials. Each alkali metal atom has one electron in its outermost shell which make more reactive.

So we can conclude that the alkali metals can't exist alone in nature because of incomplete outermost shell of alkali metals.
