Answer: Volume decreases to half of original volume

Explanation:

Boyle's Law: This law states that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature and number of moles.

$P\propto \frac{1}{V}$ (At constant temperature and number of moles)

${P_1V_1}={P_2V_2}$

where,

$P_1$ = initial pressure of gas = p

$P_2$ = final pressure of gas = 2p

$V_1$ = initial volume of gas = v

$V_2$ = final volume of gas = ?

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get the final pressure of gas.

${p\times v}=2p\times V_2$

$V_2=\frac{v}{2}$

Therefore, the final volume of the gas will become half of initial volume.

When the pressure is doubled the volume will be half as the pressure increase due to the frequent collision of molecules so with the decrease in volume the pressure will increase as Boyles law

valina [46]

Answer:

$MnCO_{3}+2H_{2}O-2e^{-}\rightarrow MnO_{2}+HCO_{3}^{-}+3H^{+}$

Explanation:

Half reaction: $MnCO_{3}\rightarrow MnO_{2}$

(1) $CO_{3}$ balance: $MnCO_{3}\rightarrow MnO_{2}+HCO_{3}^{-}$

(2)H and O balance in acidic medium: $MnCO_{3}+2H_{2}O\rightarrow MnO_{2}+HCO_{3}^{-}+3H^{+}$

(3) charge balance: $MnCO_{3}+2H_{2}O-2e^{-}\rightarrow MnO_{2}+HCO_{3}^{-}+3H^{+}$

Hence balanced half-reaction: $MnCO_{3}+2H_{2}O-2e^{-}\rightarrow MnO_{2}+HCO_{3}^{-}+3H^{+}$

Two trials are run, using excess water. In the first trial, 7.8 g of Na2O2(s) (molar mass 78 g/mol) is mixed with 3.2 g of S(s).

Tema [17]

Answer:

The answer is "Option C".

Explanation:

Given equation:

$2Na_20_2 (s)+S(s)+2H_2O \longrightarrow 4NaOH(aq)+SO_2(aq)$

$\to \Delta H^{\circ}_{rxn} (298\ K) = -610 \frac{kJ}{mol}$

$\to Na_2O_2 \ Mass = 7.8 \ g\\\\ \to Na_2O_2 \ Molar \ mass = 78 \frac{g}{mol}$

$Na_2O_2$ Has been the reactant which is limited since the two experiments are equal to $Na_2O_2$ for relationship between stress amounts.

$Na_2O_2, n =\frac{Mass of Na_2O_2}{Molar mass of Na_2 O_2}=\frac{7.8 \ g}{78 \frac{g}{mol}} =0.1 \ mol \\\\q=\Delta H^{\circ}_{rxn} \times n = \frac{ -610 \ kJ}{ 2 \ mol \ Na_2 O_2} \times 0.1 \ mol \ Na_2O_2= 30.5 \ KJ\\\\$

Limiting reactant = $Na_2O_2$

$q=30.5 \ kJ \approx 30 \ kJ$
