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>

How many equivalents are present in 10 g of Ca2+? <br> 1 <br> 0.5 <br> 1.5 <br> 2
Lynna [10]

0.5

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Mass of Ca²⁺ = 10g

unknown:

Equivalent weight = ?

Solution:

Equivalent weight that is the amount of electrons which a substance gains or loses per mole.

Ca²⁺ has +3 charge

It lost 2e⁻;

therefore;

  In 1 mole of  Ca²⁺, we have 2 equivalent weight

1 mol  Ca²⁺ = 2eq. wts. 

1 mol Ca x (40 g / 1 mol ) x (1 mol / 2 eq.wts.) = 20.0 g = 1 eq.wt. 

Therefore;

10.0 g  Ca²⁺ x (1 eq.wt. / 20.0 g) = 0.5 eq.wts.

Assuming an electron is a hydrogen atom can undergo any of the transitions below, thus changing its energy. Which transition is
inn [45]

Answer:

n = 3 to n = 5

Explanation:

According to the Bohr's model of the atom, electrons in an atom absorb energy to move from a lower to higher energy level.

We must note that as we progress away from the nucleus, the energy levels of electrons become closer together. The energy difference between successive levels decreases and the wavelength of light associated with such transitions become longer.

Hence,the absorption of light of the longest wavelength corresponds to n = 3 to n = 5
