A certain gas is present in a 15.0 L cylinder at 2.0 atm pressure. If the pressure is increased to 4.0 atm the volume of the gas

decreases to 7.5 L . Find the two constants ki, the initial value of k, and kf, the final value of k, to verify whether the gas obeys Boyle’s law by entering the numerical values for ki and kf in the space provided. Express your answers to two significant figures separated by a comma.

Answer:

Ki = 30atmL

Kf = 30atmL

Explanation:

The following data were obtained from the question:

V1 (initial volume) = 15.0L

P1 (initial pressure) = 2atm

V2 (final volume) = 7.5L

P2 (final pressure) = 4atm

Ki (initial constant) =?

Kf (final constant) =?

Boyle's law states that PV = K

Ki = P1V1

Ki = 2 x 15 = 30atmL

Kf = P2V2

Kf = 4 x 7.5 = 30atmL

Since Ki and Kf are the same, the gas obey Boyle's law

How can scientists detect blood doping?
aev [14]

Answer:

There are typically three ways that it is accomplished: use of erythropoietin (EPO) or synthetic oxygen carriers and blood transfusions. While transfusions of large volumes of blood or use of EPO can be detected, microdosing EPO or transfusing smaller volumes of packed red blood cells is much harder to detect.

Balance the following redox reaction in acidic solution. Zn(s)+MnO−4(aq)→ Zn+2(aq)+Mn+2(aq)
devlian [24]

Answer:

2MnO₄⁻ + 5Zn + 16H⁺ → 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O + 5Zn²⁺

Explanation:

To balance a redox reaction in an acidic medium, we simply follow some rules:

  1. Split the reaction into an oxidation and reduction half.
  2. By inspecting, balance the half equations with respect to the charges and atoms.
  3. In acidic medium, one atom of H₂O is used to balance up each oxygen atom and one H⁺ balances up each hydrogen atom on the deficient side of the equation.
  4. Use electrons to balance the charges. Add the appropriate numbers of electrons the side with more charge and obtain a uniform charge on both sides.
  5. Multiply both equations with appropriate factors to balance the electrons in the two half equations.
  6. Add up the balanced half equations and cancel out any specie that occur on both sides.
  7. Check to see if the charge and atoms are balanced.

Solution

                            Zn + MnO₄⁻ → Zn²⁺ + Mn²⁺

The half equations:

                      Zn → Zn²⁺                          Oxidation half

                      MnO₄⁻ → Mn²⁺                  Reduction half

Balancing of atoms(in acidic medium)

                     Zn → Zn²⁺

                    MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ → Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O

Balancing of charge

                   Zn → Zn²⁺ + 2e⁻

                    MnO₄⁻ + 8H⁺ + 5e⁻→ Mn²⁺ + 4H₂O

Balancing of electrons

         Multiply the oxidation half by 5 and reduction half by 2:

                          5Zn → 5Zn²⁺ + 10e⁻

                        2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ + 10e⁻→ 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O

Adding up the two equations gives:

              5Zn + 2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ + 10e⁻ → 5Zn²⁺ + 10e⁻ + 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O

The net equation gives:

         5Zn + 2MnO₄⁻ + 16H⁺ → 5Zn²⁺ + 2Mn²⁺ + 8H₂O

Calculate the ph of a solution having [OH-] = 8.2 x 10 ^-8M
egoroff_w [7]

Answer:

<h2>6.91 </h2>

Explanation:

To find the pH we must first find the pOH

The pOH can be found by using the formula

pOH = - log [ {OH}^{-} ]

We have

pOH =  -  log(8.2 \times  {10}^{ - 8} )  \\  = 7.086186...

pOH = 7.09

Next we use the equation

pH = 14 - pOH

We have

pH = 14 - 7.09

We have the final answer as

<h3>6.91</h3>

Hope this helps you

A hypothetical element consists of two isotopes of masses 86.95amu and 88.95amu with abundances of 35.5% and 64.5% respectively.
Art [367]

Answer: The average atomic mass of the element = 88.242amu

Explanation:

The abundance of the first isotope is =35.5%

 Atomic mass of first isotope = 68.9257

The average atomic mass of the first isotope =86.95amu X 35.5%  =86.95amu X 0.355 =30.8725 amu

The abundance of the second isotope =64.5%

Atomic mass of the second isotope =88.95amu

The average atomic mass of second isotope =88.95amu x 64.5% = 88.95amu x 0.645= 57.37275 amu

Now the average atomic mass =30.8725 +57.37275 = 88.242amu

OR using the formulae

Average atomic mass = [mass of isotope× its abundance] + [mass of isotope× its abundance] +...[ ] / 100

{(86.95amu X 35.5 )+(88.95amu x 64.5)}/100

8,824/100

=88.24amu
