Answer: 8.45 L

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume (V1) = 3.5L

Initial pressure (P1) = 2.5 atm

[Since final pressure is given in torr, convert 2.5 atm to torr

If 1 atm = 760 torr

2.5 atm = 2.5 x 760 = 1900 torr

Final volume (V2) = ?

Final pressure (P2) = 787 torr

Since pressure and volume are given while temperature remains the same, apply the formula for Boyle's law

P1V1 = P2V2

3.5L x 1900 torr = 787 torr x V2

6650L•torr = 787 torr•V2

Divide both sides by 787 torr

6650L•torr/787 torr = 787 torr•V2/787 torr

8.45 L = V2

Thus, the volume of the gas at 787 torr and at the same temperature is 8.45 Liters

An atom's nucleus has 92 protons and its mass number is 235. how many neutrons are in the nucleus? what is the name of the atom

STALIN [3.7K]

The mass number is the sum of the protons and neutrons in an atom. 235-92 = 143 neutrons.
Element 92 is Uranium.

Uranium is also the highest atomic number element which exists in nature. All of the rest above element 92 only exist nuclear high-energy reactions (the transuranium elements), and most experience nuclear decay very quickly and form other elements with fewer protons.
