Answer:

w₁ = 0 J

w₂ = -297 J

Explanation:

Step 1: Given data

Initial volume: 266 mL (0.266 L)

Final volume: 983 mL (0.983 L)

Step 2: Calculate the work done (in joules) by the gas if it expands against a vacuum

We will use the following expression.

w₁ = -P₁ × ΔV

Since the gas expands against a vacuum, P₁ = 0. Thus, w₁ = 0 J

Step 3:  Calculate the work done (in joules) by the gas if it expands against a constant pressure of 4.09 atm

We will use the following expression.

w₂ = -P₂ × ΔV

w₂ = -4.09 atm × (0.983 L-0.266 L) = -2.93 atm.L

Then, we convert w₂ to Joule using the conversion factor 1 atm.L = 101.325 J.

-2.93 atm.L × 101.325 J/1 atm.L = -297 J

Where are the alkali metals, the alkaline earth metals, the halogens, and the noble gases located on the periodic table?
ivolga24 [154]
The Alkali Metals- (Group 1A)can be found (excluding hydrogen) in the first column of the periodic table. They all have 1 valence electron and tend to form +1 cations when forming Ionic bonds with non metals. 

The Alkali Earth Metals: (Group 2A) can be found in the second column/group on the periodic table. These elements form +2 positively charged cations when forming Ionic bonds with non metals. They also all have 2 valence electrons. 

The Halogens: are the elements that make up the second to last group on the periodic table. These elements include Chlorine, Fluorine, Bromine, Iodine, and Astatine. These elements have 7 valence electrons. The usually form a -1 charged anion when forming ionic bonds with metals. 

The Noble gases: the very last group on the periodic table. All these elements have 8 valance electrons. Due to the octet rule these atoms are already very stable and rarely react with other elements.

A quantity of gas has a volume if 400.0 ml when confined under a pressure of 600.0mm Hg. What will be the new volume of the gas
den301095 [7]

Answer:

1200 mL

Explanation:

Step 1:

Data obtained from the question. This includes the following:

Initial volume (V1) = 400 mL.

Initial pressure (P1) = 600 mmHg.

Final volume (V2) =..?

Final pressure (P2) = 200 mmHg

Step 2:

Determination of the final volume i.e the new volume of the gas.

Considering the question given, we understood that the temperature is constant. Therefore the gas is obeying Boyle's law. Using the Boyle's law equation, the new volume is obtained as follow:

P1V1 = P2V2

600 x 400 = 200 x V2

Divide both side by 200

V2 = (600 x 400) /200

V2 = 1200 mL

Therefore, the new volume of the gas is 1200 mL.
