A piston contains 0.39L of air at 1.0 atm. If the pressure on the piston is increased to 5.6 atm, what is the new volume?

Chemistry

bazaltina [42]3 years ago

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}}

Which of the following solutions is a good buffer system?A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M NaClA solution that is 0.10 M
patriot [66]

Answer:

A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN

Explanation:

  • A good buffer system contains a weak acid and its salt or a weak base and its salt.
  • In this case; A solution that is 0.10 M HCN and 0.10 M LiCN, would make a good buffer system.
  • HCN is a weak acid, while LiCN is a salt of the weak acid, that is, CN- conjugate of the acid.

Atoms of elements at the top of a group on the periodic table are smaller than the atoms of elements at the bottom of the group.
boyakko [2]

Answer:

Explanation:

As we move down the group atomic radii increased with increase of atomic number. The addition of electron in next level cause the atomic radii to increased. The hold of nucleus on valance shell become weaker because of shielding of electrons thus size of atom increased.

As the size of atom increases the ionization energy from top to bottom also  decreases because it becomes easier to remove the electron because of less nuclear attraction and as more electrons are added the outer electrons becomes more shielded and away from nucleus.  

On left side of periodic table atoms of metals are more reactive by loosing the electrons or we can say metals are more reactive by loosing the electrons so their reactivity increase down the group because of easily  removal of electrons.

On right side of periodic table atoms of nonmetals are more reactive by gaining the electrons. As we move down the group nuclear attraction becomes smaller because of shielding thus electron are less attracted by nucleus and reactivity decreases.

What volume (in L) of oxygen will be required to produce 77.4 L of water vapor in the reaction below?
Inga [223]

Answer:

90.3 L

Explanation:

Given data:

Volume of water produced = 77.4 L

Volume of oxygen required = ?

Solution:

Chemical equation:

2C₂H₆ + 7O₂  →  4CO₂ + 6H₂O

It is known that,

1 mole = 22.414 L

There are 7 moles of oxygen = 7×22.414 = 156.9 L

There are 6 moles of water = 6×22.414 = 134.5 L

Now we will compare:

                               H₂O           :              O₂    

                               134.5         :              156.9

                                 77.4         :             156.9/134.5×77.4 =90.3 L

So for the production of 77.4 L water 90.3 L oxygen is required.

Describe the number and type of each component of the molecule methane
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Methane is a chemical compound with the molecular formula CH4. It is the main component in natural gas. Methane is considered the simplest of alkanes, compounds that consist only of hydrogen (H) and carbon (C) elements. Methane is an odorless, colorless, tasteless gas that is lighter than air.

A cylinder is filled with 10.0L of gas and a piston is put into it. The initial pressure of the gas is measured to be 209.kPa. T
disa [49]

Answer : The final pressure of the gas will be, 26.8 kPa

Explanation :

According to the Boyle's law, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature of the gas and the number of moles of gas.

P\propto \frac{1}{V}

or,

PV=k

or,

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of the gas = 209 kPa

P_2 = final pressure of the gas = ?

V_1 = initial volume of the gas = 10.0 L

V_2 = final volume of the gas = 78.0 L

Now put all the given values in this formula, we get the final pressure of the gas.

209kPa\times 10.0L=P_2\times 78.0L

P_2=26.8kPa

Therefore, the final pressure of the gas will be, 26.8 kPa
