Ions are formed when atoms lose or gain electrons in order to fulfill the octet rule and have full outer valence electron shells. When they lose electrons, they become positively charged and are named cations. When they gain electrons, they are negatively charged and are named anions.

A gas has a volume of 6.35 L at 88.6 kPa. What will be the volume at standard pressure? Standard Pressure = 101.3 kPa
alukav5142 [94]

Answer:

5.55 L

Explanation:

This excersise can be solved by the Boyle's law.

This law for gases states that the pressure of a gas in a vessel is inversely proportional to the volume of the vessel.

P₁ . V₁  = P₂ . V₂

The law comes from the Ideal Gases Law, in the first term.

P . V = n . R . T  In this case, n . R . T are all constant.

6.35 L . 88.6 kPa = 101.3 kPa . V₂

V₂ = (6.35 L . 88.6 kPa) / 101.3 kPa

V₂ = 5.55 L

It is inversely proportional because, as it happened in this case, pressure was increased, therefore volume decreased.
