Answer:

This is because the pressure will build so up so much that the can will burst (and explode if there is a naked flame nearby) the gas pressure increases. more of the liquefied propellant turns into a gas.

This is Boyle's Law. It states pressure and volume have an inverse relationship.

Answer:

The gas inside the can and the can’s volume are both constant.

The gas pressure increases with increasing temperature.

The can will burst if the pressure becomes great enough.

The gas law that applies is Gay-Lussac’s law.

In the molecular orbital model of cyclobutadiene, how many -antibonding molecular orbitals are there?

Citrus2011 [14]

There are one antibonding molecular orbitals present in molecular orbital model of c.

The cyclobutadiene has a pi system comprised of four individual atomic p - orbital and thus should have a four pi molecular orbitals. The compound is the prototypical antiaromatic hydrocarbon with 4 $\pi$ - electrons . Its rectangular structure is the result of jahn teller reaction which disorder the molecule and lowers its symmetry , converting the triplet to a singlet ground state. It is a small annulene . The delocalisation energy of the $\pi$ electrons of the cyclobutene is predicted to be zero .
