D. The total number of gas molecules will decrease.
Explanation:
According to Le Chatelier's principle, an increase in pressure in a system involving gases will cause the total number of gas molecules to decrease.
Le Chatelier's principle states that "if any conditions of a system in equilibrium is changed, the system will adjust itself in order to annul the effect of the change".
In a reaction involving gases, a change in pressure affects only reactions in a gaseous phase.
An increase in pressure on an equilibrium system will shift the position of the equilibrium to the side having smaller volume and vice versa.

<u>Answer:</u>
<em>20, 44, 62 </em>
<em></em>
<u>Explanation:</u>
To find the number of atoms of each element, we multiply coefficient and subscript
For example 
contains
5 × 1 = 5 ,Ca atoms and
5 × 2 = 10, Cl atoms
If there is a bracket in the chemical formula
For example 
we multiply coefficient × subscript × number outside the bracket to find the number of atoms
(Please note: 3 is the coefficient, and if there is no number given then 1 will be the coefficient )
So
3 × 3 = 9 , Ca atoms
3 × 1 × 2 = 6, P atoms
3 × 4 × 2 = 24, O atoms are present.
So let us find the number of atoms of each element on the left side of the equation
Number of C atoms = 2 × 10 = 20
Number of H atoms = 2 × 22 = 44
Number of O atoms = 31 × 2 = 62
20, 44, 62 are the Answers.
Answer:
Explanation:
Homogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the components of the mixture are in the same proportion throughout any sample extracted from the mixture while an heterogeneous mixture is a mixture in which the components of the mixture differ in term of proportion when different samples of the mixture are extracted and compared.
For example, a sandy water will have some parts (usually the bottom) of the mixture with more sand than other parts of the mixture, hence, it (sandy water) is a heterogeneous mixture. While salty and ocean water has it's salt dissolved in the same proportion throughout the water in the mixture, hence salty and/or ocean water is a homogeneous mixture.
Sandy water can be separated by filtration (i.e using a filter paper to separate the sand from the water when the mixture is poured over a filter paper) while salty and ocean water can be separated by distillation (i.e boiling of the mixture so the water molecules can boil and move through a tube as gas or steam into another container where they are cooled and converted back to liquid or water while leaving the solid salt component of the mixture in the boiling tube).
Statement that when two elements combine with each other to from more than one compound, the weights of one element that combine with a fixed weight of the other are in a ratio of small whole numbers.
