Answer:

decrease the volume of the cylinder.

Explanation:

In order to be able to solve this question we have to understand what Boyle's law is. According to Boyle's law; at constant temperature the pressure of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to to its volume.

The Boyle's law shows us the relationship between the pressure and the volume. So, the Important thing to note hear is that if the volume in a container is decreased then the pressure will increase (and vice versa) due to the fact that as the volume decreases the particles in that container makes more collision which will make the pressure to increase.

Since, the piston is moveable it means that we can decrease and increase the volume in the cylinder. So, if the decrease the volume of the cylinder then we will have an increase in the pressure of the gas below the piston.

You need to make 10.0 L of 1.2 M KNO3. What molar ( concentration) would the potassium nitrate solution need to be if you were t
solniwko [45]

Answer:

2.5L [NaCl] concentrate needs to be 4.8 Molar solution before dilution to prep 10L of 1.2M KNO₃ solution.

Explanation:

Generally, moles of solute in solution before dilution must equal moles of solute after dilution.

By definition Molarity = moles solute/volume of solution in Liters

=> moles solute = Molarity x Volume (L)

Apply moles before dilution = moles after dilution ...

=> (Molarity X Volume)before dilution = (Molarity X Volume)after dilution

=> (M)(2.5L)before = (1.2M)(10.0L)after

=> Molarity of 2.5L concentrate = (1.2M)(10.0L)/(2.5L) = 4.8 Molar concentrate

45.7 grams of calcium chloride reacts with an excess of aluminum oxide. How many grams of aluminum chloride will be produced
damaskus [11]
Molar mass (CaCl2) = 40.1 +2*35.5 = 111.1 g/mol
Molar mass (AlCl3) = 27.0 +3*35.5= 133.5 g/ mol

                                               
3CaCl2+Al2O3 -------->3CaO +2AlCl3
mole from reaction              3 mol                                              2 mol
mass from reaction         3mol* 111.1g/mol                             2 mol*133.5g/mol
                                               333.3 g                                            267.0 g
mass from problem              45.7 g                                               x g

Proportion:
  333.3 g  CaCl2  -------   267.0 g AlCl3
  45.7 g   CaCl2   --------   x g    AlCl3

x=45.7*267.0/333.3= 36.6 g AlCl3

6. The given mass of helium occupies
marin [14]

Answer:

V2 = 35.967cm^3

Explanation:

Given data:

P1 = 0.2atm

P2 = 1.4atm

V1 = 250cm^3

V2 = ?

T1 = 10°C + 273 = 283K

T2 = 12°C + 273 = 285K

Apply combined law:

P1xV1/T1 = P2xV2/T2 ...eq1

Substituting values:

0.2 x 250/283 = 1.4 x V2/285

Solve for V2:

V2 = 14250/396.2

V2 = 35.967cm^3
