You will need the equation PV = nRT

P = Pressure in kPa
V = Volume in L
n = moles
R = 8.314 (constant)
T = Temperature in Kelvin 

First convert 2.5 atm into kPa:

2.5 X 101.3 = 253.25 kPa

Convert 125 Celsius into Kelvin:

125 + 273 = 398 K

Convert Gallons to Litres:

1.25  X 3.79 = 4.74 L

Plug your values into the equation to solve for n:

(253.25)(4.74) = n(8.314)(398)

n = (253.25)(4.74)/(8.314)(398)

n = 0.362 moles

Now use M = m/n to solve for the mass of O2

M = Molar Mass 
M = mass
n= moles

32 = m/(0.362)

m = (32)(0.362) 

m = 11.58g

How is particle motion related to thermal equilibrium?
Wewaii [24]

Answer:

With billions of moving particles colliding into each other, an area of high energy will slowly transfer across the material until thermal equilibrium is reached (the temperature is the same across the material).

Choose the correct total number of electron domains (bonding and nonbonding) about a central atom if the angle(s) between the el
slamgirl [31]

Answer:

The central atom has 3 electron domains.

Explanation:

According to the Valence Shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR) put forward by Gillespie and Nyholm in 1957, the shape of a molecule is determined by repulsion between all the electron pairs (electron domains) present in the valence shell.

The electron pairs or electron domains are known to position themselves as far apart in space as possible in order to minimize repulsions.

Hence, when the central atom of a molecule contains three electron domains, they are positioned at an angle of 120° from each other to minimize repulsions. Hence the answer.
