Answer:
<em>When molecular hydrogen (H2) and oxygen (O2) are combined and allowed to react together, energy is released and the molecules of hydrogen and oxygen can combine to form either water or hydrogen peroxide.</em>
Answer;
4.5 m³
Solution:
The statement says that two blocks are present on a lid of a container with volume of 9 m³. The mass of lid is equal to the mass of two blocks. It means that initially there are four blocks (or four atm pressure) upon 9 m³ volume.
After that four more blocks are placed on the lid. Means the pressure is increased from 4 atm to 8 atm (2 atm of lid, 2 atm of old blocks, 4 atm of new four blocks).
So, Data generated is,
P₁ = 4 atm
V₁ = 9 m³
P₂ = 8 atm
V₂ = ?
According to Boyle's Law,
P₁ V₁ = P₂ V₂
Solving for V₂,
V₂ = P₁ V₁ / P₂
Putting values,
V₂ = (4 atm × 9 m³) ÷ 8 atm
V₂ = 4.5 m³
