The new volume : 0.07 L

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Boyle's Law

At a constant temperature, the gas volume is inversely proportional to the pressure applied

$\rm p_1V_1=p_2.V_2\\\\\dfrac{p_1}{p_2}=\dfrac{V_2}{V_1}$

P₁=1 atm

V₁=0.39 L

P₂=5.6 atm

$\tt V_2=\dfrac{P_1.V_1}{P_2}\\\\V_2=\dfrac{1\times 0.39}{5.6}\\\\v_2=\boxed{\bold{0.07~L}}$

13. How many electrons are transferred in the following reaction? (The reaction is unbalanced.) Fe(s) + I'(aq) 12(s) + Fe3+(aq)

Nat2105 [25]

Answer : The correct option is, (C) 6

Explanation :

Oxidation-reduction reaction : It is a reaction in which oxidation and reduction reaction occur simultaneously.

Oxidation reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance looses its electrons. In this oxidation state increases.

Reduction reaction : It is the reaction in which a substance gains electrons. In this oxidation state decreases.

The given unbalanced chemical reaction is,

$Fe(s)+I^-(aq)\rightarrow I_2(s)+Fe^{3+}(aq)$

Half reactions of oxidation and reduction are :

Oxidation : $Fe(s)\rightarrow Fe^{3+}+3e^-$ ......(1)

Reduction : $2I^-(aq)+2e^-\rightarrow I_2$ .......(2)

In order to balance the electrons, we multiply equation 1 by 2 and equation 2 by 3, we get:

Oxidation : $2Fe(s)\rightarrow 2Fe^{3+}+6e^-$ ......(1)

Reduction : $6I^-(aq)+6e^-\rightarrow 3I_2$ .......(2)

The overall balanced chemical reaction will be:

$2Fe(s)+6I^-(aq)\rightarrow 3I_2(s)+2Fe^{3+}(aq)$

From this reaction we conclude that the electrons are getting transferred from iron to iodine and the number of electrons transferred are 6 electrons.

Hence, the correct option is, (C) 6

How many grams of carbonic acid were produced by the 3.00 g sample of NaHCO

stellarik [79]

I think the given is 3 g sample of NaHCO3. then if it will be reacted with an acid, it will produce H2CO3.
so the reaction NaHCO3 + HCl --> NaCl + H2CO3

mas of H2CO3 = 3 g NaHCO3 ( 1 mol NaHCO3 / 84 g ) ( 1 mol H2CO3 / 1 mol NaHCO3) ( 62.03 g / 1 mol )
mass of H2CO3 = 2.22 g H2CO3
