Answer:
It might cause fire or extreme smoke.
Explanation:
Answer: The final pressure is 34.48kPa
Initial Pressure P1 = 55.16kPa
Initial Volume V1 = 0.500L
Final Pressure P2 = ?
Final Volume V2 = 0.800L
Boyle's law P1V1 = P2 V2
P2 = P1V1/V2
P2 = 55.16*0.5/0.8
P2 = 34.48kPa
Data:
weight of water before heating = 0.349
weight of hydrate before heateing = 2.107
Formula:
Weight percent of water = [ (weight of water) / (weight of the hydrate) ] * 100
Solution:
Weight percent of water = [ 0.349 / 2.107] * 100 ≈ 16.6 %
Answer: 16.6%
