Plate tectonics is a scientific theory that describes the large-scale motion of Earth's lithosphere. Plates at our planet’s surface move because of the intense heat in the Earth’s core that causes molten rock in the mantle layer to move.

a gas has a volume of 95 mL at a pressure of 930 torr. What volume will the gas occupy if the pressure is increased to 970 torr
PilotLPTM [1.2K]
Boyle's law is a gas law, stating that the pressure and volume of a gas have an inverse relationship, when temperature is held constant i.e PV = constant. Therefore, P1V1 = P2V2--(i) ( P1 = initial pressure, P2= final pressure, V1= initial volume, V2= final volume). P1=930 torr, P2= 970 torr, V1= 95 ml, V2=?. Put these values in equation (i), 930 torr x 95 ml = 970 torr x V2. Therefore, V2 = 91.08 ml.

What is the mass of oxygen gas in a 12.2 L
baherus [9]

Answer:

grams O₂ = 134 grams

Explanation:

PV = nRT => n = PV/RT

P = 8.15atm

V = 12.2 Liters

R = 0.08206L·atm/mol·K

T = 16.0°C + 273 = 289K

n = (8.15atm)(12.2L)/(0.08206L·atm/mol·K)(289K) = 4.2 moles O₂

grams O₂ = 4.2 moles O₂ x 32g/mol = 134 grams O₂
