The standard atomic weight of a C is 12, and the standard atomic weight of a H is 1.  So to find molar ratio of C and H in the compound: 60.0/12=5, 5.05/1=5. This means the molar ratio of C and H is 5:5, thus 1:1.  Assuming the molecular formula is CnHn, to find molar mass: 12n + 1n = 78.12.  n=78.12/(12+1) = 6.  So the compound's molecular formula is C6H6, benzene.

21.7 mL of gas at 98.8 kPa is allowed to expand at constant
IRISSAK [1]

Answer: 40.68 kPa

Explanation:

Given that,

Original volume of gas V1 = 21.7 mL

Original pressure of gas P1 = 98.8 kPa

New volume of gas V2 = 52.7 mL

New pressure of gas P2 = ?

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature is constant, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

98.8 kPa x 21.7 mL = P2 x 52.7L

2143.96 kPa L = 52.7 L x P2

P2 = 2143.96 kPa L / 52.7 L

P2 = 40.68 kPa

Thus, the new pressure of the gas is 40.68 kPa.
