A cylinder is fitted with a moveable piston that can be raised and lowered. What would result in an increase in the pressure of

the gas below the piston?

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.

What would a general formula of an acid always start with? ( 1 point)
-Dominant- [34]
A general formula of an acid always start with an hydronium ion or H+.  The general formula of an acid have to end with an anion. As acids, these compounds are named starting with the prefix "hydro-," then adding the first syllable of the anion, then the suffix "-ic."

Greg and Shawn are studying for a physical science test. Greg thinks that the kinetic energy of an object depends on the height
Ludmilka [50]
It should be mass and speed so they are both incorrect because the height doesn’t mean much, but what matters is how heavy the object is, and how fast it’s going to go.

1. The following are statements about flames some of them are true while others are
hoa [83]

Answer:

i)The carbon particles are formed when the gas is not completely burnt(True)

ii)A solid or liquid must be change to gaseous state in order to make flame(TRUE)

iii)A non- luminous Bunsen flame produces has three visible regions(FALSE)

iv)The luminous Bunsen flame produces less soot than the non- luminous flame(FALSE)

v)A yellow Bunsen flame is obtained when the air holes are opened(FALSE)

vi)The luminous Bunsen flame is hotter than a non- luminous Bunsen flame(FALSE)

vii)Bunsen burner uses kerosene as a source of heat(FALSE)

Explanation:

i)When the incomplete combustion ,then CO(carbon monoxide) and C(carbon) are produced. <u>The unburnt carbon get deposited as</u><u> Soot</u>.

In complete combustion CO2(carbon dioxide) is produced.

ii)Fire, is the mixture of hot gases.Flame are result of chemical reaction between oxygen and fuel(e.g butane ,wood).Flame contain,carbon dioxide , heat ,light,steam.

iii)There are total three regions of flame in which the outer most region is the non-luminous .The non-luminous part is <u>blue(one visible region</u>) and does not emit-light.

iv) Luminous Bunsen flame produces more soot than the non- luminous flame because luminous flame contain more unburnt particles as compare to non-luminous.

luminous part has less oxygen available for complete combustion of fuel

v)When the air hole is open it means excess oxygen is supplied to the fuel.

In this case clean and luminous flame is produced.When air hole is close yellow flame is produced.

vi)Non-luminous part of flame is more hot because of complete combustion due to proper availability  of oxygen. Sometime the particle of non-luminous flame get ionize also.

vii).The bunsen burner uses Natural gas(methane) or LPG(propane and butane)as sources of heat because these are easily burnt not kerosene.

A confused student was doing an isomer problem and listed the following six names as different structural isomers of C7H16. a. 1
klasskru [66]

In case of heptane (C7H16) the following structural isomers are possible

shown in figure

a. 1-sec-butylpropane : this is actually 3-methyl hexane

b. 4-methylhexane : this is actually 3-methylhexane

c. 2-ethylpentane : this is actually 3-methyl hexane

d. 1-ethyl-1-methylbutane: 3-methylhexane

e. 3-methylhexane: correct IUPAC

f. 4-ethylpentane: This is actually 3-methylhexane

Hence all represent single isomer
