A cylinder with a movable piston contains 2.00 g of helium, He, at room temperature. More helium was added to the cylinder and t

he volume was adjusted so that the gas pressure remained the same. How many grams of helium were added to the cylinder if the volume was changed from 2.00 L to 3.50 L ? (The temperature was held constant.)

Answer : The mass of helium added to the cylinder was, 1.5 grams

Explanation :

Avogadro's law : It is defined as the volume of gas is directly proportional to the number of moles of gas at constant pressure and temperature.

V\propto n

or,

\frac{V_1}{n_1}=\frac{V_2}{n_2}

where,

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 2.00 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 3.50 L

n_1 = initial moles of gas = \frac{\text{Mass of He}}{\text{Molar mass of He}}=\frac{2.00g}{4g/mol}=0.5mol

n_2 = final temperature of gas = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{2.00L}{0.5mol}=\frac{3.50L}{n_2}

n_2=0.875mol

Now we have to calculate the mass of helium were added to the cylinder.

\text{Mass of He}=\text{Moles of He}\times \text{Molar mass of He}

\text{Mass of He}=0.875mol\times 4g/mol=3.5g

Mass of helium added = 3.5 - 2.00 = 1.5 g

Thus, the mass of helium added to the cylinder was, 1.5 grams

The water is more dense than the needle so it can withstand the weight. It is the contraction of the water falling faster than the others forming a drop pattern or the water getting smaller so the top looked smaller.

What volume does 4.24g of argon gas occupy at 58.2 degrees celcuis and 1528torr
lilavasa [31]

Answer:

V = 1.434 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Mass of argon = 4.24 g

Temperature = 58.2 °C

Pressure = 1528 torr

Volume = ?

Solution:

58.2 °C = 58.2 + 273 = 331.2 K

1528/760= 2.01 atm

<em>Number of moles:</em>

Number of moles = mass/molar mass

Number of moles = 4.24 g / 39.948 g/mol

Number of moles = 0.106 mol

<em>Volume:</em>

PV = nRT

V = nRT/P

V =  0.106 mol ×0.0821. atm. L. mol⁻¹. K⁻¹ × 331.2K/ 2.01 atm

V = 2.88 atm L/ 2.01 atm

V = 1.434 L

What was the half-life of a new isotope?
REY [17]
The half-life of any substance is the amount of time taken for half of the original quantity of the substance present to decay. The half-life of a radioactive substance is characteristic to itself, and it may be millions of years long or it may be just a few seconds.

In order to determine the half-life of a substance, we simply use:
t(1/2) = ln(2) / λ

Where λ is the decay constant for that specific isotope.
