Answer: The correct answer is A. 11.5 atm. The temperature is held constant at 293 K, therefore, we can use Boyle's Law to determine the initial pressure. Boyle's Law states that there is an inverse relationship between pressure and volume of gases. Therefore, as volume increases, the pressure will decrease and vice versa.

Further Explanation:

Boyle's Law can be mathematically expressed as:

$P_{initial}V_{initial}\ = P_{final}V_{final}$

In this problem, we are given the values:

P(initial) = ?

V(initial) = 80 L

P (final) = 0.46 atm

V (final) = 2000 L

Plugging in these values into the equation:

$P_{initial}(80 \ L) = \ (0.46 \ atm)(2000 \ L)\\P_{initial} \ = \frac{(0.46 \ atm) \ (2000 \ L)}{80 \ L}\\P_{initial}\ = 11.5 atm\\$

The initial pressure was 11.5 atm. Since the volume increased or expanded, the space where the gas particles move is bigger, so the frequency of collisions with the wall of the container and with other particles are effectively decreased. This, therefore, decreases the pressure from 11.5 to 0.46 atm.

Question 6

ss7ja [257]

Answer:

He is probably studying <u>Geomorphology. </u>

Explanation:

Geology is the science that studies the composition, structure, dynamics, and history of planet Earth, the processes by which it has evolved including everything that has to do with its natural resources and with this the processes that affect the surface, and therefore, the environment.

Geomorphology is a branch of geosciences, more specifically geography and geology. One of his most interesting models explains the ways in which the earth's surface is the result of a consistent dynamic balance.

How many grams of copper (II) nitrate would be produced from 0.80 g of copper metal reacting with excess nitric acid?

zaharov [31]

Answer:

$m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2$

Explanation:

Hello!

In this case, since the chemical reaction between copper and nitric acid is:

$2HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+H_2$

By starting with 0.80 g of copper metal (molar mass = 63.54 g/mol) and considering the 1:1 mole ratio between copper and copper (II) nitrate (molar mass = 187.56 g/mol) we can compute that mass via stoichiometry as shown below:

$m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=0.80gCu*\frac{1molCu}{63.54gCu} *\frac{1molCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu} *\frac{187.56gCu(NO_3)_2}{1molCu(NO_3)_2} \\\\m_{Cu(NO_3)_2}=2.36 gCu(NO_3)_2$

However, the real reaction between copper and nitric acid releases nitrogen oxide, yet it does not modify the calculations since the 1:1 mole ratio is still there:

$4HNO_3+Cu\rightarrow Cu(NO_3)_2+2H_2O+2NO_2$

Best regards!
