Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf P_2 \approx 3.53 \ atm}}

Explanation:

In this problem, the temperature stays constant. The volume and pressure change, so we use Boyle's Law. This states that the pressure of a gas is inversely proportional to the volume. The formula is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

Now we can substitute any known values into the formula.

Originally, the gas has a volume of 25.0 liters and a pressure of 2.05 atmospheres.

25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm = P_2V_2

The volume is decreased to 14.5 liters, but the pressure is unknown.

25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm = P_2 * 14.5 \ L

Since we are solving for the new pressure, or P₂, we must isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 14.5 liters and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 14.5 L .

\frac {25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm }{14.5 \ L}=\frac{P_2 *14.5 \ L}{14.5 \ L}

\frac {25.0 \ L * 2.05 \ atm }{14.5 \ L}= P_2

The units of liters cancel.

\frac {25.0  * 2.05 \ atm }{14.5 }=P_2

\frac {50.25\  atm }{14.5 }=P_2

3.53448276 \ atm = P_2

The original values of volume and pressure have 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same.

For the number we found, that is the hundredth place.

  • 3.53448276

The 4 in the thousandth place (in bold above) tells us to leave the 3 in the hundredth place.

3.53 \ atm \approx P_2

The new pressure is approximately <u>3.53 atmospheres.</u>

In the laboratory, a volume of 100 mL of sulfuric acid (H2SO4) is recorded. How many g are there of the liquid if its density is
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{183 g}}  

Explanation:

\begin{array}{rcl}\text{Density} & = & \dfrac{\text{Mass}}{\text{Volume}}\\\\\rho & = &\dfrac{m}{V}\\\\1.83 \text{ g$\cdot$ cm}^{-3} & = & \dfrac{m}{\text{100 cm}^{3}}\\\\m & = & \text{183 g}\\\end{array}\\\text{There are $\large \boxed{\textbf{183 g}}$ of sulfuric acid.}

Copper has two naturally occurring isotopes. Cu−63 has a mass of 62.939 amu and relative abundance of 69.17%.
fiasKO [112]
The answer is 64.907 amu.

The atomic mass of an element is the average of the atomic masses of its isotopes. The relative abundance of isotopes must be taken into consideration, therefore:
atomic mass of copper = atomic mass of isotope 1 * abundance 1 + atomic mass of isotope 2 * abundance 2

We know:
atomic mass of copper = 63.546 amu
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: 62.939 amu
The abundance of isotope 1 is: 69.17% = 0.6917
The atomic mass of isotope 1 is: x
The abundance of isotope 2: 100% - 69.17% = 30.83% = 0.3083

Thus:
63.546 amu = 62.939 amu * 0.6917 + x * 0.3083
63.546 <span>amu = 43.535 amu + 0.3083x
</span>⇒ 63.546 amu - 43.535 amu = 0.3083x
⇒ 20.011 amu = 0.3083x
   ⇒ x = 20.011 amu ÷ 0.3083 = 64.907 amu

How many atoms of carbon are combined to with 2.81 moles of hydrogen atoms in a sample of the compound ethane, C2H6?
puteri [66]

Answer:

5.64×10²³ atoms C

Explanation:

Convert moles of H to moles of C:

2.81 mol H × (2 mol C / 6 mol H) = 0.937 mol C

Convert moles of C to atoms of C:

0.937 mol C × (6.02×10²³ atoms C / mol C) = 5.64×10²³ atoms C
