The pressure gets increased to 486 kPa from 405 kPa, when the volume is decreased from 6 cm³ to 4 cm³.

Explanation:

In the present problem, the temperature is said to remain at constant and there is change in the pressure. So according to Boyle's law, the relationship between pressure and volume of any gaseous objects are inversely related to each other. In other words, the pressure attained by gas molecules in a container will be inversely proportional to the volume of the gas molecules occupied in the container, at constant temperature.

V=\frac{1}{P}

So, if two volumes V₁ and V₂ are considered, then their respective pressure will be represented as P₁ and P₂. Then, as per Boyle's law,

V_{1}P_{1}=V_{2}P_{2}

So let us consider, V₁ = 6 cm³ and V₂ = 4 cm³ and pressure P₁ = 405 kPa and we have to determine P₂.

Then,  6*405=5*P_{2}\\ \\P_{2}=\frac{2430}{5} =486 kPa

So, the pressure at new volume of 4 cm³ is 486 kPa. It can be seen that as there is decrease in the volume, there is an increase in the pressure. So it satisfied the Boyle's law.

Thus, the pressure gets increased to 486 kPa from 405 kPa, when the volume is decreased from 6 cm³ to 4 cm³.

Should a mortar and pestle should be used for grinding only one substance at a time
MatroZZZ [7]
The mortar and pestle is most commonly used in chemical laboratories or in the kitchen. Its key function is to grind the material into smaller pieces, usually into its powdered form. It looks like that shown in the picture. The mortar is the bowl in which the material to be pounded is placed, and the pestle does the pounding.

Now, when you ask if it can only pound one at a time, my honest answer is, it depends. Depending on the size of your mortar, you could grind materials two or three at a time. But if you are concerned with contamination, then you do it one at a time, especially if you don't want them to get mixed up.

A sample of ammonia has a mass of 82.9 g. how many molecules are in this sample?
alina1380 [7]
The chemical formula for ammonia is NH3. So first, you need to find the molar mass of ammonia (how many grams in one mole).
N=14g
H3=3g
So one mole of NH3 is 17 grams, you can divide 82.9 grams by 17 grams to find the number of molecules. The answer should be 4.876 moles (molecules) of ammonia. Hope this helps!

You need a 20% alcohol solution. on hand, you have a 240 ml of a 15% alcohol mixture. you also have 40% alcohol mixture. how muc
juin [17]
0.15*240=36 ml of alcohol in <span>240 ml of a 15% alcohol mixture
0.4x = </span>ml of alcohol in x ml of a 40% alcohol mixture
0.2(x+240)= ml of alcohol in (x+240) ml of a 20% alcohol mixture

0.15*240 + 0.4x = 0.2(x+240)
36+0.4x=0.2x+48
0.2x = 12
x=12/0.2=120/6=20 ml  of a 40% alcohol mixture

GuDViN [60]

Answer: Massive

Explanation: There are many galaxies out in the universe and it's possible they go on indefinitely. Out of all of these, our solar system is very very tiny. As an analogy, our universe would be like an atom which are the the smallest units of matter. There are many other galaxies that we just haven't been able to discover but they are there.

Scientists in a lab are working on a series of experiments that involve colliding two or more atomic nuclei at very high speeds
Ket [755]

Answer: Scientists are working on nuclear fusion process. Nuclear fusion is the process in which two atomic nuclei combine to form another nuclei. In the process either energy is absorbed or released due to the difference in the mass of reactants and products.
