Calculate the decrease in temperarure when 2.00 L at 20.0 degrees celsius is compressed to 1.00 L.
Serga [27]
I suspect that the pressure of this change is constant therefore

The equation is used from the combined gas law. (When pressure is constant both P's will cancel out P/P = 1)
V/T = V/T
Initial   Change

Initially we have 2L at 20 degress what temperature will be at 1L.

2/20 = 1/T
0.1 = 1/T
0.1T = 1
T = 1/0.1
T = 10 degress celsius.

Hope this helps if you won't be able to understand what is the combined gas law just tell me :).

How many formula units make up 24.2 g of magnesium chloride (MgCl2)?<br><br> Help!!
NNADVOKAT [17]

Answer:

Approximately 1.53 \times 10^{23} formula units (0.254\; \rm mol).

Explanation:

Refer to a modern periodic table for the relative atomic mass of magnesium (\rm Mg) and chlorine (\rm Cl):

  • \rm Mg: 24.305.
  • \rm Cl: 35.45.

In other words, the mass of 1\; \rm mol of \rm Mg atoms would be (approximately) 24.305\; \rm g.

Likewise, the mass of 1\; \rm mol of \rm Cl atoms would be approximately 35.45\; \rm g.

One formula unit of the ionic compound \rm MgCl_{2} includes exactly as many atoms as there are in the given formula. The formula mass of a compound is the mass of 1\; \rm mol of the formula units of this compound.

The formula \rm MgCl_{2} includes one \rm Mg atom and two \rm Cl atoms.

Hence, every formula unit of \rm MgCl_{2} \! would include the same number of atoms: one \rm Mg\! atom and two \rm Cl\! atoms. There would be 1\; \rm mol of \rm Mg atoms and 2\; \rm mol of \rm Cl atoms in 1\; \rm mol\! of \rm MgCl_{2} formula units.

Thus, the mass of 1\; \rm mol\! of \rm MgCl_{2} formula units would be equal to the mass of 1\; \rm mol of \rm Mg atoms plus the mass of 2\; \rm mol of \rm Cl atoms. (The mass of 1\; \rm mol\!\! of each atom could be found from the relative atomic mass of each element.)

\begin{aligned}& M({\rm MgCl_{2}}) \\ =\; & 24.305\; {\rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} + 2\times {\rm 35.45 \; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}} \\ =\; & 95.205\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}\end{aligned}.

In other words, the formula mass of \rm MgCl_{2} is 95.205\; \rm g \cdot mol^{-1}.

Therefore, the number of formula units in m = 24.2\; \rm g of \rm MgCl_{2} would be:

\begin{aligned}n &= \frac{m({\rm MgCl_{2}})}{M({\rm MgCl_{2}})} \\ &= \frac{24.2\; \rm g}{95.205\; \rm g\cdot mol^{-1}} \\ & \approx 0.254\; \rm mol\end{aligned}.

Multiple n by Avogadro's Number N_{A} \approx 6.022 \times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1} to estimate the number of formula units in 0.254\; \rm mol:

\begin{aligned}N &= n \cdot N_{A} \\ &\approx 0.254\; \rm mol \times 6.022 \times 10^{23}\; \rm mol^{-1} \\ &\approx 1.53\times 10^{23}\end{aligned}.

What happens to the number in a measurement that is converted from kilometers to meters
Sergeeva-Olga [200]

You multiply the number by 1000 when you convert a measurement from kilometres to metres.

The prefix <em>kilo</em> means <em>×1000</em>, so

1 <em>kilo</em>metre means 1 metre <em>×1000</em>.

Draw the structure of an alkane or cycloalkane that has more than three but fewer than ten carbon atoms, and only primary hydrog
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

The structures are shown in the figure.

Explanation:

The primary hydrogens are those which are attached to primary carbon.

Primary carbons are the carbons which are attached to only one carbon.

Primary carbons is bonded to three hydrogens.

In order to draw such structure we will draw structures which will have carbon with three hydrogens or no hydrogens (quaternary)

The structures are shown in the figure with clear marking.

Elements that have atoms with stable valence electron configurations in the ground state are found in
dsp73

Answer:

Group 18, also known as the Noble Gasses

Explanation:

Atoms strive for full stability by gaining or losing electrons to get 8 valence electrons in their valence shell, but Group 18 already has 8 electrons in their valence shell, and are therefore already stable in their ground state.
