Answer:

Explanation:

Nitrogen has a lone pair of electrons. That would mean that NH3 is minus at the left end in this case.

 H

:N  H

H

Methane has its Hs 90 degrees (approximately apart.

    H

H  C  H

    H

The pulling forces on the methane cancel each other out. When that happens the chemical is non polar.

A. and D. would be the best pick for this sort of experiment, but maybe (unlikely) B. because you could see how they could react in certain situations, how they react to danger but I suggest A.

a gas that exerts a pressure of 215 torr in a container with a volume of 51.0 mL will exert a pressure of ? torr when transferre
zhannawk [14.2K]
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!
