Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf 0.54 \ mol \ Cl_2}}$

Explanation:

A mole is any quantity of a substance that contains 6.02 × 10²³ particles. At standard temperature and pressure, or STP, 1 mole of as is equal to 22.4 liters. This is true for any gas, regardless of the specific kind.

Although it is not specified, we can assume this gas is at STP. Let's set up a ratio using this information: 22.4 L/mol

$\frac {22.4 \ L \ Cl_2}{1 \ mol \ Cl_2}$

Multiply by the given number of liters: 12

$12 \ L \ Cl_2 *\frac {22.4 \ L \ Cl_2}{1 \ mol \ Cl_2}$

Flip the ratio so the liters of chlorine cancel.

$12 \ L \ Cl_2 * \frac {1 \ mol \ Cl_2}{22.4 \ L \ Cl_2}$

$12 * \frac {1 \ mol \ Cl_2}{22.4 }$

$\frac {12}{22.4 } \ mol \ Cl_2$

$0.53571428571 \ mol \ Cl_2$

The original measurement of liters has 2 significant figures, so our answer must have the same.

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

0.53571428571

The 5 in the thousandth place tells us to round the 3 up to a 4.

$0.54 \ mol \ Cl_2$

12 liters of chlorine gas at STP is approximately 0.54 moles of chlorine gas.

You shake a can of soda and open it, which cause the pressure to decrease. what happens to the volume of the CO2. the soda

navik [9.2K]

Answer: When you take the top off of a bottle of soda, the pressure inside the bottle decreases and goes to the same pressure as the atmosphere. When that happens the carbon dioxide inside is no longer forced to be a liquid and turns back into a gas, causing the bubbles that we're so familiar with.

Explanation:

However, producing foaming carbon dioxide gas by shaking a bottle of soda water is a physical change, while producing foaming carbon dioxide gas by combining baking soda and vinegar is a chemical change. ... Because no chemical bonds are broken and no new molecules are formed, this is a physical change in the system.

What force types change the direction of motion

lora16 [44]

Forces affect how objects move. They may cause motion; they may also slow, stop, or change the direction of motion of an object that is already moving. Since force cause changes in the speed or direction of an object, we can say that forces cause changes in velocity. Remember that acceleration is a change in velocity. Let’s say an object is moving along a table on earth, suddenly the finite table ends, resulting in the object being present in the air, which means there is no normal contact force N to combat the force by gravity mg, which is why there is an acceleration downwards. This proves as a projectile motion since the direction of motion start changing from horizontal to vertical. Another example is one throwing an object up. It moves up and slows down, reaching its maximum point, leading to it starting to move downwards. This too is a change in motion.
