Answer:

Pressure of the trapped gas and the pressure on the outside on the piston are the same.

Explanation:

When the piston is at rest, then it exist a mechanical equilibrium, that is to say, that pressure of the trapped gas is equal to the pressure on the outside of the piston.

Answer:

Check the last paragraph in the Explanation section.

Explanation:

In order to understand the Behavior of gases that is how ideal gases and real gases behave, scientists proposed several laws and one of them is the Boyle’s Law. The Boyle’s Law states that at a constant temperature the pressure of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its volume. The Boyle’s Law can be represented mathematically by using the equation below;

PV = k. Where P= pressure, V = volume and k = constant.

Hence, P1V1 = P2V2.

When the piston in the Boyle’s Law apparatus is at rest, the area of the Piston would be multiplied by the pressure of the trapped gas which will give the balanced weight. It will also balanced the additional weight.

A neutral atom with the electron configuration 2-8-6 would most likely form a bond with an atom having the configuration
Fittoniya [83]

Answer:

The configuration of the atom would be 2-8-2.

Explanation:

Any atom of an element combines with other element to complete its octet and become stable.

The electron configuration of the given atom is 2-8-6. That means the atom has 6 electrons in its outermost shell. To become stable the atom should have 8 electrons in its outermost shell. The given atom has 6 electrons so it either lose 6 electrons or gain 2 electrons to complete its octet.

But we know the atom having 5,6,7 electrons in its outermost shell they do not lose, they gain either 3 or 2 or 1 electrons to complete its octet.

So we say that atom with the electron configuration 2-8-6 bond with the atom having electron configuration 2-8-2.
