<u>Answer:</u> Increasing the volume of a given amount of gas at constant temperature causes the pressure to decrease because the molecules are more spread apart.

<u>Explanation:</u>

In a container, when volume is increases, the particles get separated from each other.

The intermolecular spacing between the particles increases, which makes the intermolecular interaction between the particles decrease.

When the attraction between the particles decreases, the pressure on the particles also decreases.

Hence, increasing the volume of a given amount of gas at constant temperature causes the pressure to decrease because the molecules are more spread apart.

How many milliliters of C5H8 can be made from 366 mL C5H12 ?
zlopas [31]

The number of Ml  of C₅H₈  that can  be  made  from 366  ml  C₅H₁₂  is 314.7 ml  of C₅H₈


  <u><em>calculation</em></u>

 step  1: write  the  equation for  formation of C₅H₈

C₅H₁₂  →  C₅H₈  + 2 H₂

Step 2: find the mass of C₅H₁₂

mass = density × volume

= 0.620 g/ml × 366 ml =226.92 g

Step 3: find moles  Of  C₅H₁₂

moles  = mass÷  molar mass

from periodic table the  molar mass of  C₅H₁₂ = (12 x5) +(  1 x12) = 72 g/mol

moles = 226.92 g÷ 72 g/mol =3.152 moles

Step 4: use the  mole ratio  to determine the  moles of C₅H₈

C₅H₁₂:C₅H₈  is 1:1  from equation above

Therefore the  moles of C₅H₈  is also = 3.152  moles

Step 5: find the mass  of C₅H₈

mass = moles x molar mass

from periodic table the  molar mass of C₅H₈ = (12 x5) +( 1 x8) = 68 g/mol

= 3.152  moles x 68 g/mol = 214.34 g

Step 6: find Ml of  C₅H₈

=mass / density

= 214.34 g/0.681 g/ml = 314.7 ml

What information is need to calculate the percent composition of a compound?
Anestetic [448]

Answer:

Molecular formula

Explanation:

Molecular formula in the first place is required to understand which compound we have. We then should refer to the periodic table and find the molecular weight for each atom. Adding individual molecular weights together would yield the molar mass of a compound.

Then, dividing the total molar mass of a specific atom by the molar mass of a compound and converting into percentage will provide us with the percentage of that specific atom.

E. g., calculate the percent composition of water:

  • molecular formula is H_2O;
  • calculate its molar mass: [tex]M = 2M_H + M_O = 2\cdot 1.00784 g/mol + 16.00 g/mol = 18.016 g/mol;
  • find the percentage of hydrogen: [tex]\omega_H = \frac{2\cdot 1.00784 g/mol}{18.016 g/mol}\cdot 100 \% = 11.19 %;
  • find the percentage of oxygen: [tex]\omega_O = \frac{16.00 g/mol}{18.016 g/mol}\cdot 100 \% = 88.81 %.

What role does valence electrons play in reactivity for an element?
kirza4 [7]

Explanation:

The valence electrons within an atom is the number of electrons in its outermost shell.

These electrons are used by an atom to react with one another. They  determine the extent to which an atom is ready to combine either by losing, gaining or sharing these electrons.

  • Every atom desires to have a completely filled outermost shell.
  • Only the elements in group 8 have a complete octet.
  • The need to attain stability is driven by the number of electrons in their valence shell.
  • Therefore, some atoms are very reactive.
  • Those needing one electrons to complete their octet and also those that must lose one electron are very reactive.
