Answer:

Option c. 1 atm

Explanation:

We can do this exercise in two ways.

1. using the ideal gas equation which is PV = nRT

2. Using boyle's law.

Now, with the first option, would be longer, because we will need to calculate the number of moles present in the first container, and then, replace it in the second container to calculate P.

However, in this case, is easier to use Boyle's law.

Boyle's law is a relation concerning the compression and expansion of a gas at constant temperature.

In this case, we can see that the gas, is being expanded to a major volume, but temperature is constant (same 25 °C), therefore, we can use the following expression to calculate the new pressure:

P1*V1 = P2*V2

Now, let's replace the data provided in this expression, and solve for P2:

P2 = P1*V1 / V2

P2 = 2 * 1.5 / 3

P2 = 3 / 3

P2 = 1 atm

This would be the new pressure of the gas at constant temperature

To solve this we assume that the gas is an ideal gas. Then, we can use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. At a constant temperature and number of moles of the gas the product of PV is equal to some constant. At another set of condition of temperature, the constant is still the same. Calculations are as follows:

P1V1 =P2V2

P2 = P1 x V1 / V2

P2 = 2.0 x 1.5 / 3

Acetaldehyde decomposes at 750 K: CH3CHO → CO + CH4. The reaction is first order in acetaldehyde and the half-life of the reacti
Degger [83]

Answer:

k = 1.3 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹

Explanation:

For a first order reaction the integrated rate law is

Ln [A]t/[A]₀ = - kt

where [A] are the concentrations of acetaldehyde in this case, t is the time and k is the rate constant.

We are given the half life for the concentration of acetaldehyde to fall to one half its original value, thus

Ln [A]t/[A]₀ = Ln 1/2[A]₀/[A]₀= Ln 1/2 = - kt

- 0.693 = - k(530s) ⇒ k = 1.3 x 10⁻³ s⁻¹

However, when the temperature increases, the solubility of gaseous solutes will _______?
babunello [35]

Answer:

Decrease

Explanation:

Since the speed in which the gas molecules are faster as they are heated, they fly around in the container and logically, it is harder to insert a moving object into water than something more stationary or slower.
