Two samples of carbon tetrachloride were decomposed into their constituent elements. One sample produced 38.9 g of carbon and 46

3 g of chlorine, and the other sample produced 14.8 g of carbon and 144 g of chlorine. Part A Are these results consistent with the law of definite proportions?

Explanation:

Firstly, defining Law of definite proportion which states that in any chemical compound, the elements are the same and are in the same proportion by mass. It is also called Proust's law.

In sample A;

38.9 g of carbon

463 g of chlorine

In sample B;

14.8 g of carbon

144 g of chlorine.

Sample A, Ratio of mass of Carbon to mass of Chlorine

= 38.9 : 463

= 0.084

Sample B, Ratio of mass of Carbon to mass of Chlorine

= 14.8 : 144

= 0.103

These results above show that the ratio of the masses of Carbon to Chlorine in both samples A and B are not the same so therefore, the results are not consistent with the law of definite proportion.

A sample of N2O3(g) has a pressure of 0.046 atm . The temperature (in K) is then doubled and the N2O3 undergoes complete decompo
iogann1982 [59]

Answer:

0.184 atm

Explanation:

The ideal gas equation is:

PV = nRT

Where<em> P</em> is the pressure, <em>V</em> is the volume, <em>n</em> is the number of moles, <em>R</em> the constant of the gases, and <em>T</em> the temperature.

So, the sample of N₂O₃ will only have its temperature doubled, with the same volume and the same number of moles. Temperature and pressure are directly related, so if one increases the other also increases, then the pressure must double to 0.092 atm.

The decomposition occurs:

N₂O₃(g) ⇄ NO₂(g) + NO(g)

So, 1 mol of N₂O₃ will produce 2 moles of the products (1 of each), the <em>n </em>will double. The volume and the temperature are now constants, and the pressure is directly proportional to the number of moles, so the pressure will double to 0.184 atm.

Gravitional Force

Explanation:

Every planet has a gravitational pull which attracts all objects; the moon is no exception. It says forces in the question but I know for sure gravitational force is apart of it.
