<h3><u>Answer</u>;</h3>

= 1.44 L

<h3><u>Explanation</u>;</h3>

Boyle's law states that the volume of a fixed mass of a gas is inversely proportional to its pressure at a constant temperature.

Mathematically;

<em>P α 1/V</em>

<em>PV =constant </em>

<em>Thus, P1V1 = P2V2 </em>

<em>P1 = 1.00 atm, V1 = 3.60 liters, V2 = ?, P2 = 2.50 atm</em>

<em>V2 = P1V1/P2</em>

<em>     = (1× 3.6)/2.5 </em>

<em>     = </em><u><em>1.44 L</em></u>

An ideal gas contained in a piston which is compressed. The gas is insulated so that no heat flows into or out of it. 1) What ha
Goryan [66]

Answer:Temperature increases

Explanation: As the gas in the container is an ideal gas so it should follow the ideal gas equation, the equation of state.

We know ideal gas equation to be PV=nRT where

   P=pressure

   V=Volume

   T=Temperature

   R=Real gas constant

   n=Number of moles

since the gas is insulated such that no heat goes into or out of the system .

When we compress the ideal gas using a piston, Thermodynamically it means that work is done on the system by the surroundings.

Now as the ideal gas is been compressed so the volume of the gas would decrease and slowly a time will reach when no more gas can be compressed that is there cannot be any further decrease in volume of the gas.

From the equation PV=nRT

Once there is no further compression is possible hence volume becomes constant so pressure of the ideal gas becomes directly proportional to the temperature as n and R are constants. Also as the pressure and volume are inversely related so an decrease in volume would lead to an increase in pressure.

As the ideal  gas is compressed so the pressure of the gas would increase since the gas molecules have smaller volume available after compression hence the gas molecules would quite frequently have collisions with other gas molecules or piston and this collision would lead to increase in speed of the gas molecules and  so the pressure would increase .

The increase in pressure would lead to an increase in temperature as show by the above ideal gas equation because the pressure and temperature are directly related.

So here we can say that work done on the system by surroundings leads to increase in temperature of the system.

What protects the Earth from meteorites and the sun's rays? (4 points)
inna [77]
I believe the answer is D. The atmosphere, different layers of the atmosphere can help in different ways! The stratosphere helps protect us from the sun's rays; The Mesophere is what helps protect us from meteorites! It's so cold that they burn up in that area.

Why is an atom regarded as electrically unstable​
meriva

Answer: An atom can be considered unstable in one of two ways. If it picks up or loses an electron, it becomes electrically charged and highly reactive. Such electrically charged atoms are known as ions. Instability can also occur in the nucleus when the number of protons and neutrons is unbalanced.

In a room full of air, the air is mainly composed of Nitrogen and Oxygen molecules (both at room temperature). Find (to two sign
zloy xaker [14]

Explanation:

Expression for the v_{rms} speed is as follows.

            v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}

where,   v_{rms} = root mean square speed

                     k = Boltzmann constant

                    T = temperature

                    M = molecular mass

As the molecular weight of oxygen is 0.031 kg/mol and R = 8.314 J/mol K. Hence, we will calculate the value of v_{rms} as follows.

               v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}

                            = \sqrt{\frac{3 \times 8.314 J/mol K \times 309.02 K}{0.031 kg/mol}}

                            = 498.5 m/s

Hence, v_{rms} for oxygen atom is 498.5 m/s.

For nitrogen atom, the molecular weight is 0.028 kg/mol. Hence, we will calculate its v_{rms} speed as follows.

                v_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3kT}{M}}

                              = \sqrt{\frac{3 \times 8.314 J/mol K \times 309.92 K}{0.028 kg/mol}}

                              = 524.5 m/s

Therefore, v_{rms} speed for nitrogen is 524.5 m/s.
