Answer:

<u>Gay-Lussac's law.</u>

Explanation:

According to Gay-Lussac's pressure law, it states that the pressure of a given mass of gas is <em>directly</em> proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas, the assumption that the volume is kept constant.

Hence, the trucker's tires were blown up because they were under high pressure as he drove from New Jersey to California, as a result of this intense pressure the temperature of the air in the tires began to rise and it directly affected the pressure of the gas in the tires' tubes which also increased to a point that they ended up blowing out, obeying Gay-Lussac's law.

Answer:

Pretty sure it's 50% since two long haired cats can have a short haired cat, so it's likely the other way around as well.

If I initially have a gas at a pressure of 10.0 atm, a volume of 24.0 liters, and a temperature
Bezzdna [24]

Answer:

The new volume of gas is 25.7 L.

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume = 24.0 L

Initial pressure = 10.0 atm

Initial temperature = 200 K

Final temperature = 300 K

Final volume = ?

Final pressure = 14.0 atm

Formula:  

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂  

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = Initial volume

T₁ = Initial temperature

P₂ = Final pressure

V₂ = Final volume

T₂ = Final temperature

Solution:

V₂ = P₁V₁ T₂/ T₁ P₂  

V₂ = 10.0 atm × 24.0 L × 300K / 200 K × 14.0 atm

V₂ = 72000 atm .L. K / 2800 K.atm

V₂ = 25.7 L

The new volume of gas is 25.7 L.

Below is the equation for the formation of hydrofluoric acid:
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The answer to your question is Synthesis and Endothermic

Explanation:

Balanced chemical reaction

               H₂  +  F₂   ⇒   2HF  + 546 kJ

Chemical reactions can be classified in different ways, so I suggest two names of this reaction.

1.- This is a synthesis reaction because two different reactants form a new  compound.

2.- This is an endothermic reaction because it was needed  to supply 546 kJ of energy so that the reaction proceeds.
