Hello!
1.00 L of a gas at STP is compressed to 473 mL. What is the new pressure of gas?
- <u><em>We have the following data:</em></u>
Vo (initial volume) = 1.00 L
V (final volume) = 473 mL → 0.473 L
Po (initial pressure) = 1 atm (pressure exerted by the atmosphere - in STP)
P (final pressure) = ? (in atm)
- <u><em>We have an isothermal transformation, that is, its temperature remains constant, if the volume of the gas in the container decreases, so its pressure increases. Applying the data to the equation Boyle-Mariotte, we have:</em></u>






<u><em>Answer: </em></u>
<u><em>The new pressure of the gas is 2.11 atm </em></u>

<u>Explanation:</u>
Alpha decay process is the process in which nucleus of an atom disintegrates into two particles. The first one which is the alpha particle consists of two protons and two neutrons. This is also known as helium nucleus. The second particle is the daughter nuclei which is the original nucleus minus the alpha particle released.

Beta decay process is defined as the process the neutrons get converted into an electron and a proton. The released electron is known as the beta particle. In this process, the atomic number of the daughter nuclei gets increased by a factor of 1 but the mass number remains the same.

<u>For A:</u> Uranium-238 emits an alpha particle
The nuclear equation for this process follows:

<u>For B:</u> Plutonium-239 emits an alpha particle
The nuclear equation for this process follows:

<u>For C:</u> Thorium-239 emits a beta particle
The nuclear equation for this process follows:

Answer:
Covalent solids, also called network solids, are solids that are held together by covalent bonds. As such, they need localized electrons (shared between the atoms) and therefore the atoms are arranged in fixed geometries. Distortion far from this geometry can only occur through a breaking of covalent sigma bonds.
