I think the best word here would be compress. It is to compress that is defined as to squeeze a gas into a smaller space. Compression is the reduction of volume which cause an increase in pressure of the gas. Hope this answers the question. Have a nice day.

In your own words, describe how the energy of a pendulum is changed as it moves through one cycle of its motion. Pls help online
ruslelena [56]

In a perfect world without air resistance, the top of the swing would have the most potential energy, but the least amount of kinetic energy. As the pendulum falls down, it gains more kinetic energy as it travels faster due to gravitational acceleration but loses more potential energy as it loses height. The total amount of energy in the system (the sum of kinetic and potential energy) stays the same.

In the combustion of hydrogen gas, hydrogen reacts with oxygen from the air to form water vapor.
Yuliya22 [10]
The balanced chemical equation is:

2H2 + O2 ---> 2H2O

We are given the amount of the product produced from the reaction. This will be the starting point for the calculations.

355 g H2O ( 1 mol H2O/ 18.02 g H2O) ( 1 mol O2 / 2 mol H2O ) ( 32 g O2 / 1 mol O2 ) = 315.205 g O2

The reaction below will occur in a gaseous system at STP:
WARRIOR [948]

Answer:

V = 12.5 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of NO = 15.0 L

Temperature and pressure = standard

Volume of nitrogen gas produced = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

6NO + 4NH₃    →     5N₂ + 6 H₂O

Number of moles of NO:

PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

n = 1 atm × 15.0 L / 0.0821 atm.L /mol.K × 273.15 K

n = 15.0 atm.L / 22.43 atm.L /mol

n = 0.67 mol

now we will compare the moles of No and nitrogen gas.

              NO           :         N₂

               6             :          5

              0.67         :         5/6×0.67 = 0.56

Volume of nitrogen gas:

 PV = nRT

1 atm × V = 0.56 mol ×  0.0821 atm.L /mol.K × 273.15 K

V = 12.5 atm.L / 1 atm

V = 12.5 L
