Answer:

The final volume of the cylinder is 1.67 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial volume = 0.250 L

external pressure = 2.00 atm

Expansion does 288 J of work on the surroundings

Step 2: Definition of reversible work:

Wrev = -P(V2-V1) = -288 J

The gas did work, so V2>V1  (volume expands) and the work has a negative sign.(Wrev<0)

V2 = (-Wrev/P)  + V1

⇒ with Wrev = reverse work (in J)

⇒ with P = the external pressure (in atm)

⇒ with V1 = the initial volume

We can see that your pressure is in  atm  and energy in J

To convert from J to L * atm we should use a convenient conversion unit using the universal gas constants :

R = 8.314472 J/mol *K and R= 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

V2 =- (-288 J * (0.08206 L*atm/K*mol  /8.314 J/mol *K))/2.00 atm  + 0.250L

V2 = 1.67 L

The final volume of the cylinder is 1.67 L

[HELP PLEASE] Describe the difference between the ways valence electrons are rearranged when forming ionic bonds and covalent bo
nydimaria [60]

Answer:

Ionic bonding is the complete transfer of valence electron(s) between atoms. It is a type of chemical bond that generates two oppositely charged ions. In ionic bonds, the metal loses electrons to become a positively charged cation, whereas the nonmetal accepts those electrons to become a negatively charged anion.
