Most covalent compounds have relatively low melting points and boiling points. Covalent compounds usually have lower enthalpies of fusion and vaporization than ionic compounds. Covalent compounds tend to be more flammable than ionic compounds. When dissolved in water, they don't conduct electricity.

What is first and second element of the periodic table?

stira [4]

The elements on the periodic table are listed in increasing atomic number.

Hydrogen is the first element, and has an A.N. of 1. Also, its very interesting how it doesn't need 8 valence electrons to be stable.

The second element is Helium, which has an A.N (atomic number) of two.

1.00 L of a gas at STP is compressed to 473mL. What is the new pressure of gas?

Ratling [72]

Hello!

1.00 L of a gas at STP is compressed to 473 mL. What is the new pressure of gas?

We have the following data:

Vo (initial volume) = 1.00 L

V (final volume) = 473 mL → 0.473 L

Po (initial pressure) = 1 atm (pressure exerted by the atmosphere - in STP)

P (final pressure) = ? (in atm)

We have an isothermal transformation, that is, its temperature remains constant, if the volume of the gas in the container decreases, so its pressure increases. Applying the data to the equation Boyle-Mariotte, we have:

$P_0*V_0 = P*V$
