The new volume at standard temperature and pressure is 5.08 L.

Explanation:

As per the kinetic theory of gases, the volume occupied by gas molecules will be inversely proportional to the pressure of the gas molecules. This is termed as Boyle's law.

So, pressure∝ $\frac{1}{volume}$

Thus, if two pressure and two volumes are given then,

$P_{1} V_{1} = P_{2} V_{2}\\$

Now, we known the values of P₁ = 8 atm, V₁ = 635 mL, P₂ = 1 atm and V₂ we have to determine. We are considering P₂ = 1 atm, because we have to determine V₂ at standard temperature and pressure. And standard pressure is 1 atm.

$8*635*10^{-3} = 1 *V{2} \\\\V_{2} = \frac{8*635*10^{-3} }{1} = 5.08 L$

Thus, the new volume at standard temperature and pressure is 5.08 L.

Calculate the volume of .987 mol of gas at stp will occupy

aalyn [17]

Number of moles = volume / (molar volume)
Molar volume at stp = 22.4 dm^3
Volume = no of moles × molar volume
= 0.987 × 22.4
= 22.1088 dm^3
= 22108.8 cm^3

Hope it helped!

kiruha [24]

Answer : The Lewis-dot structure of $NH_3$ is shown below.

Explanation :

Lewis-dot structure : It shows the bonding between the atoms of a molecule and it also shows the unpaired electrons present in the molecule.

In the Lewis-dot structure the valance electrons are shown by 'dot'.

The given molecule is, $NH_3$

As we know that hydrogen has '1' valence electron and nitrogen has '5' valence electrons.

Therefore, the total number of valence electrons in $NH_3$ = 5 + 3(1) = 8

According to Lewis-dot structure, there are 6 number of bonding electrons and 2 number of non-bonding electrons.

Now we have to determine the formal charge for each atom.

Formula for formal charge :

$\text{Formal charge}=\text{Valence electrons}-\text{Non-bonding electrons}-\frac{\text{Bonding electrons}}{2}$

$\text{Formal charge on N}=5-2-\frac{6}{2}=0$

$\text{Formal charge on }H_1=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

$\text{Formal charge on }H_2=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

$\text{Formal charge on }H_3=1-0-\frac{2}{2}=0$

Hence, the Lewis-dot structure of $NH_3$ is shown below.

Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

Introduction to Basic Microscopy. Microscopes are specialized optical instruments designed to produce magnified visual or photographic (including digital) images of objects or specimens that are too small to be seen with the naked eye.

Microscope are the important tools which are used by scientist. For example, in material science, medicine, mineralogy and microbiology.

Light microscope is able to send light. Light is being focused in a tight breath whereby that light passes through a sample which later it is able to create an image. This image passes to different lenses which magnifies it until it reaches the camera.

There are different types of microscope for example, Compound light microscope, Simple light microscope, and monocular microscope.

In simple light microscope only one lens which which is being used to magnify an object and it is not able to reach to a higher magnification.

In compound light microscope it uses two lenses to produce image. For example eyepiece lens and objective lens.
