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

<span>P2 = 1 atm</span>

Why do different isotopes of an element generally have the same physical and chemical properties?
tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

The correct answer is because they have same number of protons but different number of neutrons.

Explanation:

Isotopes are atoms of the same element but differ only in the number of neutrons in the nucleus, i.e. they have same atomic number but different mass number.

Mass number is affected as they have different number of neutrons, thus effecting their physical properties.

The number of electrons and protons are same, i.e. their atomic number is same and thus their chemical properties are same as chemical properties are determined by the atom’s electronic configuration and that relates to number of protons.

Question 2(Multiple Choice Worth 3 points) What happens to the rate of most reactions as the reaction progresses? The rate remai
Sav [38]

Answer: -

The rate decreases as the concentration of the reactants decreases

Explanation: -

A reaction involves change of the reactants into products.

Initially there is only reactants. So the rate if reaction is high.

After some time there are products. So the amount of reactant is less.

Reactions involve collisions of reactant molecules. As the reactant amount decreases, collisions between the reactants decreases. As such the rate of reaction decreases with the progress of the reaction.

Which factor does not influence stream velocity
baherus [9]
The factor that does not influence stream velocity is DISCHARGE.
Stream velocity refers to the speed with which the water in a stream is flowing. The factors which affect stream velocity include channel size, channel shape, turbulent flow and gradient.
