A glass sphere is filled to full volume with a gas. The pressure of the gas inside the sphere is 30.0 atm, and the temperature i

s 30.0°C. The sphere is taken outside on a cold day. The temperature of the gas decreases to 10.0°C. What is the new pressure of the gas? Assume that the volume is constant.

Answer:

28atm

Explanation:

Using Gay lussac's law equation as follows:

P1/T1 = P2/T2

Where;

P1 = initial pressure (atm)

T1 = initial temperature (K)

P2 = final pressure (atm)

T2 = final temperature (K)

Based on the information provided in this question;

P1 = 30.0 atm, T1 = 30.0°C, P2 = ?, T2 = 10.0°C

NOTE: Absolute temperature i.e. Kelvin is required for this law

T1 = 30°C + 273K = 303K

T2 = 10°C + 273K = 283K

Using P1/T1 = P2/T2

30/303 = P2/283

Cross multiply

P2 × 303 = 30 × 283

303P2 = 8490

P2 = 8490/303

P2 = 28.02

New pressure of the gas = 28atm

The electron configuration of an element is 1s22s22p4. Describe what most likely happens when two atoms of this element move tow
Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

When the two atoms move towards each other a compound is formed by sharing electron pairs supplied by each of the atoms to enable them have the stable 8 (octet) valency electrons in their outermost shell

Explanation:

The electronic configuration of the given element can be written as follows;

1s²2s²2p⁴

The given electronic configuration is equivalent to that of oxygen, therefore, we have;

The number of electrons in the valence shell = 2 + 4 = 6 electrons

Therefore, each atom requires 2 electrons to complete its 8 (octet) electrons in the outermost shell

When the two atoms move towards each other, they react and combine to form a compound by sharing 4 electrons, 2 from each atom, such that each atom can have an extra 2 electrons in its outermost orbit in the newly formed compound and the stable octet configuration is attained by each of the atoms in the newly formed compound.

Calculate the mass of CO2 that can be produced if the reaction of 54.0 g of propane and sufficient oxygen has a 64.0% yield.
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

103.9 g

Explanation:

  • C₃H₈ + 5O₂ → 3CO₂ + 4H₂O

First <u>we convert 54.0 g of propane (C₃H₈) into moles</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 54.0 g ÷ 44 g/mol = 1.23 mol C₃H₈

Then we <u>convert 1.23 moles of C₃H₈ into moles of CO₂</u>, using the <em>stoichiometric coefficients</em>:

  • 1.23 mol C₃H₈ * \frac{3molCO_2}{1molC_3H_8} = 3.69 mol CO₂

We <u>convert 3.69 moles of CO₂ into grams</u>, using its <em>molar mass</em>:

  • 3.69 mol CO₂ * 44 g/mol = 162.36 g

And <u>apply the given yield</u>:

  • 162.36 g * 64.0/100 = 103.9 g
