This is true otherwise cancer patients would have a hole in them and so would the hulk ;)
If we analyze the situation analytically, there are situations or states. Then, we are also given with 2 values of pressure and 1 value of volume. Lastly, temperature was set as constant. Thus, this means we use the Boyle's Law.
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
Let's find V₂.
(1 atm)(1.72 L) = (35 atm)(V₂)
Solving for V₂,
<em>V₂ = 0.049 L</em>
Particles are smaller, a reactant would be exposed to more cobalt atoms. Causing the reaction to happen quicker than with larger particles.
If you are referring to to the molecule, CO, it contains two atoms , C1+O1
