Answer:

Inverse proportion occurs when one value increases and the other decreases. For example, more workers on a job would reduce the time to complete the task. They are inversely proportional.

A sample of gas occupies 280 mL when the pressure is 560.00 mm Hg . If the temperature remains constant , what is the new pressu

vichka [17]

Answer : The new pressure if the volume changes to 560.0 mL is, 280 mmHg

Explanation :

According to the Boyle's, law, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of gas at constant temperature and moles of gas.

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$

or,

$P_1V_1=P_2V_2$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure = 560.00 mmHg

$P_2$ = final pressure = ?

$V_1$ = initial volume = 280 mL

$V_2$ = final volume = 560.0 mL

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get:

$560.00mmHg\times 280 mL=P_2\times 560.0 mL$

$P_2=280mmHg$

Therefore, the new pressure if the volume changes to 560.0 mL is, 280 mmHg

An atom has a mass number of 30 and 16 neutrons. What is the atomic number of this atom?

Lana71 [14]

The mass number is the number of protons plus the number of neutrons. Since there are 16 neutrons, there are 14 protons. This also corresponds to the atomic number, so this atom's atomic number is 14 which is also Silicon

To what volume should you dilute 50.0 ml of 12 m hno3 solution to obtain a 0.100 m hno3 solution?

bearhunter [10]

Answer:

The answer is "6L"

Explanation:

Formula:

$\bold{C_1 \times V_1 = C_2 \times V_2 }\\\\V_2= \frac{C_1\times V_1}{C_2}$

Values:

$\to C_1= 12 \ m\\\to V_1= 50 \ ml\\\to C_2= 0.100 \ m\\\\\\V_2= \frac{12 \times 50 }{0.100}$

$= \frac{12 \times 50 }{0.100}\\\\= \frac{12 \times 50 \times 1000}{100}\\\\= \frac{600 \times 1000}{100}\\\\= 600 \times 10\\\\=6000 \ ml\\= 6 \ L$

Which formula can be used to calculate the theoretical yield?

Bas_tet [7]

Answer:

Option C, (Actual yield ÷ percent yield) × 100

Explanation:

Theoretical yield is defined as the total amount of product formed for given reactants in a chemical reaction. It is an ideal case which assumes no exceptions or wastage.

The mathematical relation between the actual yield, percent yield and theoretical yield is as follows -

$P.Y. = \frac{M_{A.Y.}}{M_{T.Y.}} * 100$

Where

P.Y. represents the percent yield a

M A.Y. represents the mass obtained from actual yield

M T.Y. represents the mass obtained from theoretical yield

Hence, if we rearrange the formula, we get -

$M_{T.Y.} = \frac{M_{A.Y.}}{P.Y.} * 100$

Hence, option C is correct
