Answer:

The new pressure is 40 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the gas = 20.0 L

Pressure of the gas = 10.0 atm

The volume decreases to 5.0 L

Step 2: Calculate the new pressure

P1*V1 = P2*V2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure of the gas = 10.0 atm

⇒with V1 = the initial volume of the gas = 20.0 L

⇒with P2 = the new pressure = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with V2 = the decreased volume = 5.0 L

10.0 atm * 20.0 L = P2 * 5.0 L

P2 = 200 / 5.0

P2 = 40 atm

Since the volume is 4x smaller, the pressure is 4x more

The new pressure is 40 atm

What mass of magnesium would combine with exactly 16.0 grams of oxygen
TEA [102]
1.65g MgO = 1g Mg
1.65 - 1 = 0.65 g of O in MgO

solve it using proportion:
1g Mg / 0.65g O = x (g) Mg / 16g O
or 1 / 0.65 = x / 16

24.6 g is the answer.

if 1 gram of oxygen requires 1.65 grams of Mg
then 16 grams of oxygen will require 16 ( 1.65) or 26.4 grams.
