A gas at STP changes to a new volume of 955 mL and a new pressure of 6.73 atm. What was the original volume of this gas in mL if

the temperature and amount remain constant?

Since the question mentions a change in pressure from 1 atm to 6.73 atm, which triggers a change in volume, then it's premise is Boyle's Law, which notes that pressure is inversely proportional to volume (as volume decreases, pressure increases, and vice versa). As such, Boyle's Equation can be used to determine the initial pressure of the air. Also keen to note is that the Pressure at STP is 1 atm.
Boyle's Equation:      P₁V₁    =    P₂V₂

Since the initial pressure (P₁) is 1 atm, the final pressure (P₂) is 6.73 atm and the final volume is 995 mL, then we can substitute these into the equation to find the initial volume (V₁).

                                                     P₁V₁    =    P₂V₂
∴ by substituting the known values,
                                 ⇒       (1 atm) (V₁ )  =  (6.73 atm)(995 mL)
                                 
                                ⇒                      V₁  =  (6,696.35 atm  mL) ÷ ( 1 atm)
       
                                ⇒                      V₁  =  6,696.35 mL  
                                                                             
<span>Thus, the original volume of this gas in mL is </span>≈ 6,696.35 mL

Balanced nuclear equation, what two things must be conserved
In-s [12.5K]
If you only want to balance nuclear reactions, then you should know that number of nucleons are conserved before and after nuclear reaction. Also, charge is conserved as well.
Other things which are conserved in a nuclear reaction are:
Conservation of:
1. Parity
2. Spin
3. angular momentum(vector sum of intrinsic spin and orbital angular momentum)
4. linear momentum
5. Isotopic spin

2. As NH4OH is added to an HCl solution, the pH of the solution
chubhunter [2.5K]

Answer:

c

Explanation:

Nh4OH + HCL ---> NH4Cl + H3O

so ph decreases as H3O increases

and OH also decreases

A common fuel additive that is composed of C, H, and O enhanced the performance of gasoline began being phased out in 1999 becau
spayn [35]

Answer:

C₅ H₁₂ O

Explanation:

44 g of CO₂ contains 12 g of C

30.2 g of CO₂ will contain 12 x 30.2 / 44 = 8.236 g of C .

18 g of H₂O contains 2 g of hydrogen

14.8 g of H₂0 will contain 1.644 g of  H .

total compound = 12.1 out of which 8.236 g is C and 1.644 g is H , rest will be O

gram of O = 2.22

moles of C, O, H in the given compound =  8.236 / 12 , 2.22 / 16 , 1.644 / 1

= .6863 , .13875 , 1.644

ratio of their moles = 4.946 : 1 : 11.84

rounding off to digits

ratio = 5 : 1 : 12

empirical formula = C₅ H₁₂ O

Why neon is special from other chemical elements​
kupik [55]
Noble gases react very unwillingly, because the outermost shell of electrons orbiting the nucleus is full, giving these gases no incentive to swap electrons with other elements. As a result, there are very few compounds made with noble gases. Like its noble gas comrades, neon is odorless and colorless.
