<u>Answer:</u> The final volume of the gas comes out to be 4 L.
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the volume with changing pressure, we use the equation given by Boyle's law.
This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.
Mathematically,
(At constant temperature and number of moles)
The equation given by this law is:

where,
are initial pressure and volume.
are final pressure and volume.
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Hence, the final volume of the gas will be 4 L.
The question is incomplete. Complete question is:
Which list represents the classification of the
elements nitrogen, neon, magnesium, and
silicon, respectively?
(1) metal, metalloid, nonmetal, noble gas
(2) nonmetal, noble gas, metal, metalloid
(3) nonmetal, metalloid, noble gas, metal
(4) noble gas, metal, metalloid, nonmetal
.................................................................................................................
Answer: The correct answer is option 2) nonmetal, noble gas, metal, metalloid
Reason:
1) Non-metal are bad conductors of electricity. Also non-metal are electronegative in nature. Hence, among the provided elements, nitrogen satisfied the criteria. Hence, it is a non-metal.
2) Noble gas are the elements which have completely filled outermost shell. Hence, among the provided elements, Neon satisfied the criteria.
3) Metal are good conductors of electricity. Also metal are electropositive in nature. Hence, among the provided elements, magnesium satisfied the criteria. Hence, it is a metal.
4) Metalloid have conductivity better than non-metals but poor than conductors. Hence, among the provided elements, Silicon satisfied the criteria. Hence, it is a metalloid.
Radius of Xenon = 1.3Ă—10â’8 cm
Volume = 100 ml = 0.1 L
Pressure P = 1.2 atm = 121.59 Kpa
Temperature = 281 K
R = Gas Constant = 8.31 J mol^-1 K^-1
Now find the number of atoms
PV = nRT => n = PV / RT
n = (121.59 x 0.1) / (8.31 x 281) = / 2335.11 = 0.0052
Number of atoms in a mole is same as Avogadro constant A, which is 6.02 x
10^23 particles.
n = number of atoms= 0.0052
N = number of particles
Avogadro constant A = 6.02 x 10^23
n = N/A => N = n x A = 0.0052 x 6.02 x 106^23 = 3.13 x 10^20
Volume of Xe atom which would be a sphere = (4/3) x pi x r^3
Volume = = (4/3) x 3.14 x (1.3Ă—10â’8)^3 = 9.2 x 10^-24
Volume occupied by these particles = n x Volume = 3.13 x 10^20 x 9.2 x
10^-24 = 0.00288
Fraction of volume will be = 0.00288 / 0.1 = 0.0288
Answer:

Explanation:
The term used by particular kind of matter is called substance.
A substance is a particular kind of matter because it has physical properties.
