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.

Hoochie [10]

Answer:

The half life is     H_{1/2}= 7333.3sec

Explanation:

   The half life of a first order  reaction is mathematically represented as

                          H_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{Rate Constant }

 Substituting   9.45 * 10^{-5}s^{-1}  for the rate constant

                         H_{1/2} = \frac{0.693}{9.45*10^{-5}}

                                 H_{1/2}= 7333.3sec

A solution is prepared by dissolving 27.7 g of cacl2 in 375 g of water. the density of the resulting solution is 1.05 g/ml. the
bagirrra123 [75]
The answer is 6.88.
Solution:
We can calculate for the percent composition of CaCl2 by mass by dividing the mass of the CaCl2 solute by the mass of the solution and then multiply by 100. The total mass of the resulting solution is the sum of the mass of CaCl2 solute and the mass of water solvent. Therefore, the percent composition of CaCl2 by mass is 
     % by mass = (mass of the solute / mass of the solution)*100 
                        = mass of solute / (mass of the solute + mass of the solvent)*100
                        = (27.7 g CaCl2 / 27.7g + 375g) * 100 
                        = 6.88
