A cation is a positively charged ion with fewer electrons than protons while an anion is negatively charged with more electrons than protons, because of their opposite electric charges; cations and anions attract each other and readily form ionic compounds.

At 338 mm hg and 72 c a sample of carbon monoxide gas occupies a volune of 0.225 L the gas transferred to a 1.50 L flask and the

Elis [28]

Answer:

P₂ = 0.09 atm

Explanation:

According to general gas equation:

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

Given data:

Initial volume = 0.225 L

Initial pressure = 338 mmHg (338/760 =0.445 atm)

Initial temperature = 72 °C (72 +273 = 345 K)

Final temperature = -15°C (-15+273 = 258 K)

Final volume = 1.50 L

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

P₁V₁/T₁ = P₂V₂/T₂

P₂ = P₁V₁ T₂/ T₁ V₂

P₂ = 0.445 atm × 0.225 L × 258 K / 345 K × 1.50 L

P₂ = 25.83 atm .L. K / 293 K . L

P₂ = 0.09 atm

Serhud [2]

Answer:

The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle or the hydrological cycle, describes the continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The mass of water on Earth remains fairly constant over time but the partitioning of the water into the major reservoirs of ice, fresh water, saline water and atmospheric water is variable depending on a wide range of climatic variables. The water moves from one reservoir to another, such as from river to ocean, or from the ocean to the atmosphere, by the physical processes of evaporation, condensation, precipitation, infiltration, surface runoff, and subsurface flow. In doing so, the water goes through different forms: liquid, solid (ice) and vapor. Hope this helps, mark as brainliest please!

Oxygen gas can be prepared by heating potassium chlorate according to the following equation: 2KClO3(s)2KCl(s) + 3O2(g) The prod

Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

The number of moles of KClO₃ reacted was 0,15 mol

Explanation:

For the reaction:

2KClO₃(s) → 2KCl(s) + 2O₂(g)

The only gas product is O₂.

Total pressure is the sum of vapor pressure of water with O₂ gas formed. Thus, pressure of O₂ is:

749mmHg - 23,8mmHg = 725,2mmHg

Using gas law:

PV/RT = n

Where:

P is pressure (725,2mmHg ≡ 0,9542atm)

V is volume (5,76L)

R is gas constant (0,082 atmL/molK)

And T is temperature (25°C ≡ 298,15K)

Replacing, number of moles of O₂ are 0,2248 moles

As 2 moles of KClO₃ react with 3 moles of O₂ the moles of KClO₃ that reacted was:

0,2248 mol O₂× $\frac{2 mol KClO_{3}}{3 mol O_{2}}$ = 0,15 mol of KClO₃

I hope it helps!
