Answer:

Density of the liquid.

Explanation:

Density is the mass per unit volume of a substance.

At specific volume of each immiscible substance, the substance with lower relative molecular mass has the lower density and such floats.

Thus, the physical properties that determines the solvent layer that will be on top is DENSITY.

A gas has a volume of 45.0 mL and a pressure of .98 atm. If the pressure increased to 2.1 atm and the temperature remained the s

goblinko [34]

Answer: The new volume is 95.45 mL.

Explanation:

Given: $V_{1}$ = 45.0 mL, $P_{1}$ = 0.98 atm

$P_{2}$ = 2.1 atm, $V_{2}$ = ?

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

Therefore, formula used to calculate the new volume is as follows.

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

Substitute the values into above formula as follows.

$\frac{P_{1}}{V_{1}} = \frac{P_{2}}{V_{2}}\\\frac{0.98 atm}{45.0 mL} = \frac{2.1 atm}{V_{2}}\\V_{2} = 95.45 mL$

Thus, we can conclude that the new volume is 95.45 mL.
