Explanation:
Defining law of definite proportions, it states that when two elements form more than one compound, the ratios of the masses of the second element which combine with a fixed mass of the first element will always be ratios of small whole numbers.
A. One of the oxides (Oxide 1) contains 63.2% of Mn.
Mass of the oxide = 100g
Mass of Mn = 63.2 g
Mass of O = 100 - 63.2
= 36.8 g
Ratio of Mn to O = 63.2/36.8
= 1.72
Another oxide (Oxide 2) contains 77.5% Mn.
Mass of oxide = 100 g
Mass of Mn = 77.5 g
Mass of O = 100 - 77.5
= 22.5 g
Ratio of Mn to O = 77.5/22.5
= 3.44
Therefore, the ratio of the masses of Mn and O in Oxide 1 and Oxide 2 is in the ratio 1.72 : 3.44, which is also 1 : 2. So the law of multiple proportions is obeyed.
B.
Oxide 1
Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O
= 77.5/22.5
= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.
Oxide 2
Mass of Mn per 1 g of O = mass of Mn/mass of O
= 77.5/22.5
= 3.44 g/g of Oxygen.
The statement of the combined gas law for a fixed amount of gas is,
PV/T = constant
Here, the units of pressure and volume must be consistent and the temperature must be the absolute temperature (Kelvin or Rankine).
0.65 atm is equivalent to 494 mmHg
Using the equation:
(755 x 500) / (27 + 273) = (494 x V) / (-33 + 273)
V = 3396 ml = 3.4 liters
To calculate the new pressure, we can use Boyle’s law to relate these two scenarios (Boyle’s law is used because the temperature is assumed to remain constant). Boyle’s law is:
P1V1 = P2V2,
Where “P” is pressure and “V” is volume. The pressure and volume of the first scenario is 215 torr and 51 mL, respectively, and the second scenario has a volume of 18.5 L (18,500 mL) and the unknown pressure - let’s call that “x”. Plugging these into the equation:
(215 torr)(51 mL) =(“x” torr)(18,500 mL)
x = 0.593 torr
The final pressure exerted by the gas would be 0.593 torr.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
The correct answer is: “The Roman army grew in size and became dominant in the Mediterranean region”.
Explanation:
The Punic wars were a series of three wars that were fought between Rome and Carthage. At the end of the third war, Rome established itself as an empire, it conquered the Carthage’s empire, destroyed it completely and became the most powerful state of the Western Mediterranean.
