Answer: The new volume is 37.5L

Explanation:

The question is solved using the principle and formula of a gas law known as the Boyle's law. Boyle's law states that provided the temperature remains constant, the volume of a given mass of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure. Expressing the statement mathematically:

P ∝ 1/V, (where p is equal to pressure and V is volume)

Therefore PV = a constant

If a gas at pressure P1 and Volume V1 changes at constant temperature to pressure P2 and volume V2 then:

P1V1 = P2V2.

Using the formula to solve the question:

P1 = 4.5atm

P2 = 1.8atm

V1= 15L

V2 = ?

V2 = P1V1/P2

V2= 4.5 × 15 /1.8

V2 = 67.5/1.8

V2 = 37.5 L

Therefore the new volume is 37.5L

Answer:

37.5 L

Explanation:

Initial Volume, V1 = 15L

Initial Pressure P1 = 4.5 atm

Final Pressure, P2 = 1.8 atm

Final Volume V2 = ?

The relationship between these variables is given as;

P1V1 = P2V2

V2 = PIV1 / P1

Inserting the values;

V2 = 4.5 * 15 / 1.8

V2 = 37.5 L

Suppose you were required to make a solution by diluting 20.0 mL of an aqueous solution to a final volume of 750 mL.
torisob [31]
The first thing you do before performing anything in the laboratory is to read the procedure and prepare the materials needed. Next, if you already have the solution where you are supposed to take your 20 mL sample, then have it near you. Then, prepare a volumetric flask (750 mL) and a 20-mL pipette. Wash the pipette 3 times with the sample solution. If your diluent is water, wash the flask 3 times with water. Now, get 20 mL of sample from your parent solution, then add it to the flask (previously washed with water). Finally, add water until the mark in the flask and make sure that the water added is up to the mark based on the lower meniscus reading to be accurate in the amount inside the flask. <span />

Calculate e°cell for a silver-aluminum cell in which the cell reaction is al(s) + 3ag+(aq) → al3+(aq) + 3ag(s) –2.46 v 0.86 v –0
tekilochka [14]
When E° cell is an electrochemical cell which comprises of two half cells.
 
So,

when we have the balanced equation of this half cell :

Al3+(aq) + 3e- → Al(s)   and E°1 = -1.66 V 

and we have  also this balanced equation of this half cell :

Ag+(aq)  + e- → Ag(s)  and E°2 = 0.8 V 

so, we can get E° in Al(s) + 3Ag (aq) → Al3+(aq) + 3Ag(s)

when E° = E°2 - E°1

∴E° =0.8 - (-1.66)

      = 2.46 V

∴ the correct answer is 2.46 V

lisov135 [29]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

The first artificial use of a PGR was to stimulate the production of flowers on pineapple plants. They are now used widely in agriculture. Plant hormones are also used in turf management to reduce the need to mow, to suppress seedheads, and to suppress other types of grass.
