Answer:

D

Explanation:

according to boyle's law the temperature and pressure of a gas are inversely proportional given by the equation

p1v1=p2v2

In this case p1 is 9.5,v1 is 1.7,v2 is 1.1 and we have to find p2

9.5×1.7=p2×1.1

16.15/11=1.1p2/1.2

p2=14.7

I hope this helps

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf D.\ 14.7 \ atm}}

Explanation:

We are asked to find the pressure on a gas given a change in volume. We will use Boyle's Law which states the volume of a gas is inversely proportional to the pressure. The formula for this law is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

The gas originally has a pressure of 9.5 atmospheres and a volume of 1.7 liters.

9.5 \ atm * 1.7 \ L = P_2V_2

The gas is compressed to a volume of 1.1 liters, but the pressure is unknown.

9.5 \ atm * 1.7 \ L = P_2* 1.1 \ L

We want to find the new pressure, so we must isolate the variable P₂. It is being multiplied by 1.1 liters. The inverse operation of multiplication is division. Divide both sides of the equation by 1.1 L.

\frac {9.5 \ atm * 1.7 \ L}{1.1 \ L} =\frac{ P_2* 1.1 \ L}{1.1 \ L}

\frac {9.5 \ atm * 1.7 \ L}{1.1 \ L} =P_2

The units of liters cancel.

\frac {9.5 \ atm * 1.7 }{1.1 } =P_2

\frac {16.15}{1.1} \ atm =P_2

14.6818181818 \ atm= P_2

Round to the tenths place. The 8 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 6 up to a 7.

14.7 \ atm \approx P_2

The new pressure at a volume of 1.1 liters is approximately <u>14.7 atmospheres.</u>

Explain the connection between reactants, products and limiting reactant.
balu736 [363]
In easy words the connection between Reactants, Products and Limiting reactants is as follow,

Reactants and Products:
                                       Reactants are the starting materials for the synthesis of final synthesized materials called as products.

Example:
                 CH₄  +  2 O₂     →      CO₂  +  2 H₂O

In above reaction Methane (CH₄) and Oxygen (O₂) are the reactants while, CO₂ and H₂O are the products.

Reactants, Products and Limiting Reactants:
                                                                       Considering the same example it is seen that for one mole of CO₂ two moles of O₂ are required to completely convert into CO₂ and H₂O. If either of the reactant is taken less than the required amount then it will act as a limiting reactant because it will consume first leaving the second reactant present in excess as compare to it. Hence, we can say that the limiting reactant is the starting material which controls the amount of product being formed.

What is the barycenter of the moon and the earth​
kirill [66]

Answer:

The barycenter is the point in space around which two objects orbit. For the Moon and Earth, that point is about 1000 miles (1700 km) beneath your feet, or about three-quarters of the way from the Earth's center to its surface.
