(Boyle's Law):
1 answer:
<u>Answer:</u> The final volume will be 16.85 mL
<u>Explanation:</u>
To calculate the new pressure, we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.
The equation given by this law is:
where,
are initial pressure and volume.
are final pressure and volume.
We are given:
Conversion factor: 1 atm = 760 torr
Putting values in above equation, we get:
Hence, the final volume will be 16.85 mL

Answer: The most likely partial pressures are 98.7MPa for NO₂ and 101.3MPa for N₂O₄
Explanation: To determine the partial pressures of each gas after the increase of pressure, it can be used the equilibrium constant Kp.
For the reaction 2NO₂ ⇄ N₂O₄, the equilibrium constant is:
Kp =
where:
P(N₂O₄) and P(NO₂) are the partial pressure of each gas.
Calculating constant:
Kp =
Kp = 0.0104
After the weights, the total pressure increase to 200 MPa. However, at equilibrium, the constant is the same.
P(N₂O₄) + P(NO₂) = 200
P(N₂O₄) = 200 - P(NO₂)
Kp =
0.0104 =
0.0104 +
- 200 = 0
Resolving the second degree equation:
=
= 98.7
Find partial pressure of N₂O₄:
P(N₂O₄) = 200 - P(NO₂)
P(N₂O₄) = 200 - 98.7
P(N₂O₄) = 101.3
The partial pressures are = 98.7 MPa and P(N₂O₄) = 101.3 MPa
