Answer:

3.55atm

Explanation:

We will apply Boyle's law formula in solving this problem.

P1V1 = P2V2

And with values given in the question

P1=initial pressure of gas = 1.75atm

V1=initial volume of gas =7.5L

P2=final pressure of gas inside new piston in atm

V2=final volume of gas = 3.7L

We need to find the final pressure

From the equation, P1V1 = P2V2,

We make P2 subject

P2 = (P1V1) / V2

P2 = (1.75×7.5)/3.7

P2=3.55atm

Therefore, the new pressure inside the piston is 3.55atm

A 275 g sample of a metal requires 10.75 kJ to change its temperature from 21.2 oC to its melting temperature, 327.5 oC. What is
Vlada [557]

Answer:

c=0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of the sample, m = 275 g

It required 10.75 kJ of heat to change its temperature from 21.2 °C to its melting temperature, 327.5 °C.

We need to find the specific heat of the metal. The heat required by a metal sample is given by :

Q=mc\Delta T

c is specific heat of the metal

c=\dfrac{Q}{m\Delta T}\\\\c=\dfrac{10.75\times 10^3\ J}{275\times (327.5 -21.2)}\\\\=0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C

So, the specific heat of metal is 0.127\ J/g^{\circ} C.

For which elements are outer electrons and valence electrons the same?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

The number of electrons in the outermost shell of a particular atom determines its reactivity, or tendency to form chemical bonds with other atoms. This outermost shell is known as the valence shell, and the electrons found in it are called valence electrons.

What kind of intermolecular forces act between a sodium cation and an ammonia molecule? Note: If there is more than one type of
Reil [10]

Answer:

Ion-dipole forces

Explanation:

Na⁺ is a cation, that is, an ion with a positive charge.

NH₃ has polar covalent bonds (due to the difference in electronegativity between nitrogen and hydrogen). According to the VESPR theory, it has a trigonal pyramidal shape with a lone pair. As a consequence, it has a net dipole moment and the molecule is polar.

The intermolecular forces between Na⁺ (ion) and NH₃ (dipole) are ion-dipole forces.
