Answer:
B) The term "inert" was dropped because it no longer described all the group 8A elements.
Explanation:
Inert elements in chemistry simply refers to elements that are chemically inactive and are not expected to form any compounds. this is the general belief for the group 8 elements as they all have complete duplet/octet configurations (and ideally, they ought to be very stable with no tendency to form compounds by participating in the loss and gain of electrons). However the discovery of compounds like xenon tetrafluoride (XeF4) proved this to be wrong.
Again, the reason the term - inert gses was droppedis beacause this term is not strictly accurate because several of them do take part in chemical reactions.
After dropping the term - Inert gases, they are now referred to as noble gases.
Answer: 1.87 atm
Explanation:
Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.
The combined gas equation is,
where,
= initial pressure of gas = 2.50 atm
= final pressure of gas = ?
= initial volume of gas = 26.4 ml
= final volume of gas = 36.2 ml
= initial temperature of gas = 
= final temperature of gas = 
Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:
The new pressure is 1.87 atm by using combined gas law.
Explanation:
The above two reactions xcan also be written in form of single chemcial equation:
![FeCl_3+K(SCN)\rightleftharpoons KCl+[Fe(SCN)]Cl_2(blood-red)](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=FeCl_3%2BK%28SCN%29%5Crightleftharpoons%20KCl%2B%5BFe%28SCN%29%5DCl_2%28blood-red%29)
1. Color of ferric chloride solution is yellow. This is due to presence of ferric ions which have yellow color in their aqueous solutions.
2. KSCN has the colorless solution. This due to potassium ion forms colorless aqueous solution.
3. On mixing, KSCN with 
we will get blood red color solution of ![[FeSCN]Cl_2](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5BFeSCN%5DCl_2)
.
