A 10.0 L balloon contains helium gas at a pressure of 655 mmHg. What is the final pressure, in millimeters of mercury, if the fi
joja [24]

Answer:

474.64mmHg

Explanation:

From the question given, we obtained the following:

V1 = 10L

P1 = 655mmHg

V2 = 13.8L

P2 =?

P1V1 = P2V2

10 x 655 = P2 x 13.8

Divide both side by the coefficient P2 i.e 13.8

P2 = (10 x 655) / 13.8

P2 = 474.64mmHg

Therefore, the new pressure will be 474.64mmHg

Determine whether each phrase describes carboxylic acids or esters.
Thepotemich [5.8K]

Answer:

Carboxylic acids produce hydrogen bonds amongst themselves and possess lower vapor pressure. They generally possess a sour odor. When an acid and a base react with each other to produce salt and water and comprises the combination of hydrogen and hydroxide ions, the reaction is termed the neutralization reaction. Thus, when carboxylic acid reacts with base the reaction is termed neutralization.

On the other hand, esters are known for their pleasant fragrances. They do not produce hydrogen bonds amongst themselves and possess higher vapor pressure. A hydration reaction in which free hydroxide dissociates the ester bonds between the glycerol and fatty acids of a triglyceride, leading to the formation of free fatty acids and glycerol is termed saponification.

Thus, the given blanks can be filled with carboxylic acid, carboxylic acid, esters, esters, esters, and carboxylic acid.
