A piston contains 5.00 L of gas at a pressure of 101 kPa. The piston is compressed until the gas occupies 2.00 L of space. What

is the new pressure of gas inside the piston?

Answer: 252.5 kPa

Explanation:

Given that:

initial volume of gas V1 = 5.00 L

initial pressure of gas P1 = 101 kPa.

new Volume V2 = 2.00 L

new pressure P2 = ?

Since, only pressure and volume are involved, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

101 kPa x 5.0L = P2 x 2.00L

505 = P2 x 2.00L

P2 = 505/2.00

P2 = 252.5 kPa

Thus, the new pressure of gas inside the piston is 252.5 kPa

PLS HELP ASAP! I WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! Which of the following explains the conservation of mass during cellular respiration? (4
Alex17521 [72]

Answer:

jayfeather friend me    ccccccc

Explanation:

is: cellular respiration creates an energy molecule when glucose is broken down.

Conservation of mass (mass is never lost or gained in chemical reactions), during chemical reaction no particles are created or destroyed, the atoms are simply rearranged from the reactants to the products.

hydrogen chloride, hydrogen nitrate (v), sodium chloride, sodium hydroxide. Name a substance known as common salt​
trasher [3.6K]

Answer:

C: Sodium chloride

Explanation:

Common salt is gotten when sodium atoms reacts with chlorine atoms in an exothermic reaction to form an ionic substance known as sodium chloride with the chemical formula NaCl.

Equation is;

2Na + Cl2 = 2NaCl

Looking at the options, the correct one is Sodium chloride.

Universal indicator solution
Lynna [10]
Shred red cabbage ~ (3/4 of a very small head)

Put the cabbage pieces in a small container ~ ( you can use a Pyrex-4-cup measure, a bowl or even a plastic zipper bag)

Cover the cabbage with very hot water. Let it sleep until the water has cooled. (somewhere between lukewarm and room-temperature) 

The purple liquid you've made is your indicator. 
Pour it into a container and compost the cabbage.

Now look for substances that may be acids or bases. 
Liquids are good, like fruits. 

You can also use solids around for baking are good too. (such as baking soda, salt, sugar, cream of tartar...)

Get containers for mixing (such as tea cups, because they are small, shallow and white inside)

Pour the indicator into the tea cups and add an acid or base.

Lemon juice, rice wine vinegar, and apple cider vinegar, turn the cabbage-water indicator into a pink.

Orange juice or fresh oranges (same thing) turn the cabbage-water indicator into an orangish-pinkish color. 

Baking soda turns the cabbage-water indicator blue.

Milk (non-fat) turns the cabbage-water indicator turn opaque and milky, yet purple.

An egg white (which won't get into the solution immediately until after a lot of stirring) turns the cabbage-water indicator blue.

Hint:
Bases mostly turn the indicator towards blue-ish colors such as purple, light blue, dark blue, opaque blue...

Acids mostly turn the indicator towards pink-ish colours such as orange-ish pink, floral pink...

(You'll have to keep on testing the cabbage-water indicator in after a day or two to see if the indicator quality persists or degrades.

A materials scientist has created an alloy containing aluminum, copper, and zinc, and wants to determine the percent composition
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

0.8749 grams of hydrogen gas was formed from the reaction.

Explanation:

P = Pressure of hydrogen gad= 744 Torr = 0.98 atm

(1 atm = 760 Torr)

V = Volume of hydrogen gas= 11 L

n = number of moles of hydrogen gas= ?

R = Gas constant = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

T = Temperature of vapor = 27.0 °C = 300.15 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Using an ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{0.98 atm\times 11 L}{0.0821 L atm/mol K\times 300.15 K}

n = 0.4374 moles

Mass of 0.4374 moles of hydrogen gas:

0.4374 mol × 2 g/mol = 0.8749 g

0.8749 grams of hydrogen gas was formed from the reaction.

How does the structure of water explain its high boiling point, high heat capacity, and high heat of vaporization?
nikklg [1K]
Water's high heat capacity<span> is a property caused by hydrogen bonding among </span>water<span> molecules. When </span>heat<span> is absorbed, hydrogen bonds are broken and </span>water <span>molecules </span>can<span> move freely. When the temperature of </span>water decreases, the hydrogen bonds are formed and release a considerable amount of energy.
<span>Water's heat of vaporization is around 540 cal/g at </span>100 °C<span>, water's boiling point.
