The following is the introduction to a special e-publication called Determining the Age of the Earth (click the link to see a table of contents). Published earlier this year, the collection draws articles from the archives of Scientific American. In the collection, this introduction appears with the title, “Stumbling Toward an Understanding of Geologic Timescales.”
Water combines with carbon dioxide to produce slightly acidic groundwater
that dissolves limestone and forms caves.
This is because the reaction between water and carbondioxide to form
bicarbonate ions( HCO₃⁻). The bicarbonate ions dissociate into Hydrogen
atoms thereby increasing the acidity.
The acidic environment results in the formation of acidic groundwater that
dissolves limestone and forms caves.

Answer:
P₂ = 28.5 torr
Explanation:
Given data:
Initial pressure = 38 torr
Initial volume = 500 L
Final volume = 677 L
Final pressure = ?
Solution:
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P₁ = Initial pressure
V₁ = Initial volume
P₂ = Final pressure
V₂ = Final volume
Now we will put the vales in formula.
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
P₂ = P₁V₁ /V₂
P₂ = 38 torr × 500 L / 667 L
P₂ = 19000 torr. L / 667 L
P₂ = 28.5 torr
Molar volume is when 1 mol of any gas occupies 22.4 L at STP.
Methyl ether has a mass of 8.12 g,
Volume occupied - 3.96 L
If 22.4 L occupied by 1 mol of gas
Then 3.96 L occupied by 1/22.4 x 3.96 = 0.176 mol of gas
The mass of 0.176 mol = 8.12 g
Molar mass is mass of 1 mol
Therefore mass of 1 mol = 8.12/0.176 = 46.1
Molecular weight is 46.1 g/mol
