Answer:
Final pressure in (atm) (P1) = 6.642 atm
Explanation:
Given:
Initial volume of gas (V) = 12.5 L
Pressure (P) = 784 torr
Temperature (T) = 295 K
Final volume (V1) = 2.04 L
Final temperature (T1) = 310 K
Find:
Final pressure in (atm) (P1) = ?
Computation:
According to combine gas law method:
⇒ Final pressure (P1) = 5,048.18877 torr
⇒ Final pressure in (atm) (P1) = 5,048.18877 torr / 760
⇒ Final pressure in (atm) (P1) = 6.642 atm
Answer:
B) Symmetrical and nonpolar
Step-by-step explanation:
The formula is H-C≡C-H.
Each C atom has <em>two</em> electron regions, so VSEPR theory predicts a <em>linear molecular geometry</em> (see image below).
The molecule is symmetrical, because the green line divides the molecule into two halves that are mirror images of each other.
The C-H bonds are slightly polar, because C is more electronegative than H (µ ≈ 0.4 D).
The C atoms are partially negative (red), while the H atoms are partially positive (blue).
However, the two C-H bond dipoles point in <em>opposite directions</em>, so they cancel each other. The molecule has <em>no net dipole moment.</em>
Acetylene is nonpolar.
