First, we need to assume acetylene to adapt an ideal gas behavior. So, we can use the Ideal Gas Law:
PV = nRT
Given:
V = 42 L
T = 305 K
P = 780 torr = 1.026 atm
R = gas constant, 0.0821 L atm/ mol K
n = amount of gas in the canister
1.026 atm * 42 L = n * 0.0821 L atm/mol K * 305 K
n = 1.72 moles of gas
Answer:
Graphite
Graphite is a non-metal and it is the only non-metal that can conduct electricity.
Answer:
Explanation:
If the reaction is really exothermic (and it is) then the water would spatter all over the place. It would boil off if the container could hold it. It would also react according to the following reaction.
You are talking about a reaction like
2K + 2HOH = 2KOH + H2
