Answer:

The formula of the compound is Cu₂O.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Mass of compound = 12.5 g

Mass of copper (Cu) = 11.1 g

Mass of oxygen (O) = 1.4 g

Formula of compound =?

The formula of the compound can be obtained as follow:

Cu = 11.1 g

O = 1.4 g

Divide by their molar mass

Cu = 11.1 / 63.5 = 0.175

O = 1.4 / 16 = 0.0875

Divide by the smallest

Cu = 0.175 / 0.0875 = 2

O = 0.0875 / 0.0875 = 1

Therefore, the formula of the compound is Cu₂O.

A gas is contained in a 5.0-liter container at a pressure of 100 kPa. what size container would be required to contain the gas a
vagabundo [1.1K]
Boyle's law gives the relationship between pressure of a gas and volume of gas.
It states that at constant temperature, pressure of gas is inversely proportional to volume of gas.PV = k 
where P - pressure  V- volume and k - constant 
P1V1 = P2V2 
since the gas occupies the volume of the container, volume of gas is taken as volume of container.
100kPa x 5.0 L = 50 kPa x V
V = 10.0 L 
Answer is C.
