Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2. \ 157 \ kPa}}

Explanation:

Since temperature remains constant, the only variables that change are volume and pressure. Therefore, we are using <u>Boyle's Law.</u> This states that the pressure is inversely proportional to the volume. The formula is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

We know the gas starts with a volume of 20.0 liters at a pressure of 275 kPa. We can substitute these values into the left side of the formula.

275 \ kPa *20.0 \ L=P_2V_2

We know the gas expands to a volume of 35.0 Liters, but we do not know the pressure.

275 \ kPa *20.0 \ L=P_2* 35.0 \ L

Since we are solving for the new pressure, we must isolate the variable P₂. It is being multiplied by 35.0 Liters and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 35.0 L.

\frac {275 \ kPa * 20.0 \ L}{ 35.0 \ L}= \frac{P_2*35.0 \ L}{35.0 \ L}

\frac {275 \ kPa * 20.0 \ L}{ 35.0 \ L}=P_2

The units of liters cancel.

\frac {275 \ kPa * 20.0 }{ 35.0 }=P_2

\frac {5500}{35.0} \ kPa= P_2

157.142857 \  kPa=P_2

The original measurements of pressure and volume have 3 significant figures, so our answer must have the same. For the number we calculated, that is the ones place.

The 1 in the tenths place (157.142857) tells us to leave the 7 in the ones place.

157 \ kPa= P_2

If the gas expanded to a volume of 35.0 liters while the temperature remained constant, the pressure in container was approximately 157 kilopascals.

What is the molar mass of (NH), CO?<br> 138g<br> 788<br> 968<br> 1448
aleksandr82 [10.1K]

Answer:

The molar mass of (NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3} is 96.8 g/mol

Explanation:

The given molecular formula - (NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3}

Individual molar masses of each element in the compound is as follows.

Molar mass of nitrogen - 14.01 g/mol

Molar mass of of hydrogen = 1.008g/mol

Molar mass of carbon = 12.01 g/mol

Molar mass of oxygen =16.00 g/mol

Molar mass of (NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3} is

2\times[1(14.01)+4(1.008)]+1(12.01)+3(16.00)= 96.8g/mol

Therefore,The molar mass of (NH_{4})_{2}CO_{3} is 96.8 g/mol
