  If the temperature is kept constant, what change in volume would cause the pressure of an enclosed gas to be reduced to one-th
joja [24]
Using the ideal gas equation pV = nRT, where R is the ideal gas constant, we can show that p=nRT/V. Since n, R and T are all constants, p2/p1 = V1/V2 where p1 and p2 are the start and final pressures respectively and V1 and V2 are the start and final volumes respectively. For if p1 = 3*p2, the pressure would have fallen to one third of its original value, and it follows that V2 = 3*V1. Therefore, for the pressure to fall to a third of its original value, the volume must increase by a factor of 3.

<span> The temperature of the water in both beakers is greater than 8 °C
This is because since the water passes on heat to the spheres, that means they are at a higher temperature then the spheres. if they were at a lower temp. The spheres would pass on heat to the water.

Liono4ka [1.6K]

Answer:

The methyl group will already be present  

Explanation:

You want to make 1-methyl-4-nitrobenzene.

The question is, "Do I start with the methyl group on the ring and then nitrate, or do I start with the nitro group on the ring and then add the methyl group?"

The methyl group is activating and ortho, para directing.

The nitro group is deactivating and meta directing.

You want a para-substituted product, so you choose to nitrate toluene, as in the reaction scheme below.
