Answer: The correct answer is option B.

Explanation:

Average kinetic energy of the gas molecule is given by relation:

E_K=\frac{3}{2}\frac{R}{N_A}\times T

N_A = Avogadro Number

T = Temperature of the gas in Kelvins.

R = Universal gas constant

E_K\propto T

With increase in temperature the kinetic energy of the gas molecule increases and vice-versa.

So, according to the question the explanation for a drop in temperature of the gas is decrease in average kinetic energy of the gas molecules.

Hence, the correct answer is option B.

1. When an acid reacts with a base, what compounds are formed? (1 point) a salt only water only metal oxides only a salt and wat
scoundrel [369]

Answer: 1) only a salt and water

An acid and base reacts together to undergo neutralization to form salt and water.

HCl+NaOH\rightarrow NaCl+H_2O

where HCl is an acid and NaOH is a base to form salt (NaCl) and water (H_2O).

Answer: 2) The formula of the hydrogen ion is often written as H^+.

All acids dissociate in water to give  H^+ ions.

Answer: 3) Arrhenius acids are substances that ionizes to yield protons in aqueous solution.

HCl\rightarrow H^++Cl^-

Arrhenius bases are substance that ionizes to yield hydroxide ions in aqueous solution.

NaOH\rightarrow Na^++OH^-

Answer: 4) A conjugate acid base pair  transfers hydrogen ion.

CH_3COO^-+H_2O\rightarrow CH_3COOH+H_3O^+

Here CH_3COO^- accepts a proton and thus act as a base and the corresponding CH_3COOH is its conjugate acid.

Answer: 5) Bronsted Lowry acid is a substance that donates protons.  Bronsted Lowry base is a substance that accepts protons.

NH_4^+ and NH_3

NH_3+H^+\rightarrow NH_4^+

NH_3 is a acid which accepts proton and thus acts as base to form conjugate acid NH_4^+.

A dry gas at a temperature of 67.5 C and a pressure of 882 torr occupies a volume of 242.2 mL. What will be the volume of the ga
masya89 [10]

Answer:

265 mL is the new volume for the gas

Explanation:

We decompose the Ideal Gases Law in order to find the answer of this question: P . V = n . R . T

We can propose the formula for the 2 situations, where  n remains constant.

R refers to 0.082 L.atm/mol.K which is physic constant.

We convert the temperature to Absolute value:

67.5°C + 273 = 340.5 K

80°C + 273 = 353 K

We convert the volume to L → 242.2 mL . 1 L/1000 mL = 0.2422 L

We convert the pressure values to atm:

882 Torr . 1 atm/ 760 Torr = 1.16 atm

840 Torr . 1atm / 760 Torr = 1.10 atm

P₁. V₁ / T₁ = P₂ . V₂ / T₂     → Let's replace data:

1.16 atm . 0.2422L / 340.5K = 1.10 atm . V₂ / 353 K

(1.16 atm . 0.2422L / 340.5K) . 353K = 1.10 atm . V₂

V₂ = 0.291 L.atm / 1.10 atm → 0.2647 L ≅ 265 mL
