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

In the molecule ClF3, chlorine makes three covalent bonds. Therefore, three of its seven valence electrons need to be unpaired.
Kisachek [45]

Answer:

Explanation:

Chlorine has electronic configuration of 2 , 8 , 7

In n = 3 there are 7 electrons out of which 2 are in s , and 5 are in p . But out of 5 electrons in p , one electron jumps into d orbital . so the electronic configuration  becomes as follows

3s^23p_x^23p_y^23p_z^1  = 7

3s^23p_x^23p_y^13p_z^13d_{xy}^1

These orbitals like sp³d hybridise to form 7 degenerate orbitals out of which 2 orbitals contain electrons in pairs and rest three are singly occupied by electrons.( unpaired electrons )
