The answer is C. Compressing the air reduces the volume and increases the pressure. Compressing the air causes the molecules to collide with one another, and with the walls of the container, at a higher frequency. This is becaue the number of molecules are still the same but now forced in a smaller volume of space. This why the pressure increases wiht reduced volume, while keeping the temperatures constant.
Answer : The structure of 
will be square-planar.
Explanation :
In the given molecule , 'Xe' is the central atom and 'H' is the terminal atom.
Xenon has 8 valence electrons and hydrogen has 1 valence electron. Therefore, the total number of valence electrons are 8 + 4(1) = 12 electrons.
The number of electrons used in Xe-H bonding = 8 electrons
The remaining electrons which are used as lone pair on central atom (Xe) = 12 - 8 = 4 electrons
There are 4 bonding pairs and 2 lone pairs of electrons, they will be arranged in the octahedral arrangement around the central atom with 2 lone pairs of electrons on central atom. The lone pairs are arranged linearly across the central atom. The resulting structure will be square-planar.
The structure of is shown below.
Answer:
B
Explanation:
Balanced equations have the same number of elements on both sides. If the number of elements are equal to each other for every element in the equation on both sides, then the equation is balanced.
Important concept : The big number before an element or compound represents how many molecules of that compound or element there are in a reaction. To find the number of atoms of each element you multiply the coefficient by the subscript ( small number ) which represents the number of atoms of that element in each molecule. Ex. 3H2O. There is a coefficient of 3 meaning that there are 3 molecules of H2O. There is a subscript after H meaning there are 2 atoms of hydrogen in each molecule. To find the total number of atoms we multiply the subscript of hydrogen by the coefficient of the whole molecule. 3 * 2 = 6 , so there are a total of 6 atoms of hydrogen in 3H2O
A) Cu + 2AgNO3 ==> CuNO3 + 2Ag
1 Cu 1
2 Ag 2
2 N 1
3 O 3
The amount of nitrogen atoms is different on both sides of the equation therefore this is not a balanced equation
B) CCl4 + O2 ==> CO2 + 2Cl2
1 C 1
4 Cl 4
2 O 2
The number of atoms of each element is the same on both sides of the equation therefore this is the balanced equation, however lets check the other answer choices just in case.
C) 2K + H2SO4 ==> K2SO4 + 2H2
2 K 2
1 H 4
1 S 1
4 O 4
The number of Hydrogen atoms are different on each side of the equation therefore this is not a balanced equation.
D) 2Al2O3 ==> 2Al + 3O2
4 Al 2
6 O 6
There are a different amount of aluminum atoms on both sides of the equation therefore this is not a balanced equation.
Percent error is the difference between the measured and known value, divided by the known value, multiplied by 100%.
So first, we take our measured value, .299 cm, minus our known value, .225 cm.
.299 cm - .225 cm=.004 cm
Next, we divide that by our known value
Finally, multiply your answer by 100
.0177777778 x 100= 1.77777778 %
Round to three significant figures, and you're done.
=1.78 % error
