A sample of neon gas occupies 4.5 L of gas at 1.63 atm. What will be the volume if the pressure changes to 2.4 atm
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 3.1 \ liters}}

Explanation:

This question asks us to find the new volume if the pressure changes. Therefore, we use Boyle's Law, which states that pressure and the volume of the gas are inversely proportional. The formula is:

P_1V_1=P_2V_2

We know that the original sample of gas occupies 4.5 liters at a pressure of 1.63 atmospheres.  We know that the pressure was changed to 2.4 atmospheres, but we don't know the volume. Substitute all known values into the formula.

4.5 \ L * 1.63 \ atm= 2.4 \ atm * V_2

Since we are solving for the new volume (V₂), we need to isolate the variable. It is being multiplied by 2.4 atmospheres and the inverse of multiplication is division. Divide both sides by 2.4 atm.

\frac {4.5 \ L * 1.63 \ atm}{2.4 \ atm}= \frac{2.4 \ atm * V_2}{2.4 \ atm}

\frac {4.5 \ L * 1.63 \ atm}{2.4 \ atm}= V_2

The units of atmospheres (atm) cancel.

\frac {4.5 \ L * 1.63 }{2.4 }=V_2

\frac {7.335 \ L}{2.4 }=V_2

3.05625 \ L= V_2

The smallest number of significant figures in the original measurements is 2, so our answer must have the same. For the number we found, that is the tenths place.

The 5 in the hundredth place tells us to round the 0 up to a 1.

3.1 \ L = V_2

The volume of the neon gas when the pressure is changed to 2.4 atmospheres is <u>3.1 Liters.</u>

1. What is the name for rise of deeper water to the surface?
Vikentia [17]

Upwelling

Explanation:

The rise of deeper water to the surface is called upwelling.

Upwelling is a term used in oceanography to describe the rise of cold and denser water to the surface.

  • This occurs usually along the short where wave action is very prevalent.
  • Surface wave pushes away warm water.
  • Then deeper nutrient-rich cold water rises due to low density and volume of water on top.
  • This nutrient rich water supports biological activities because they are rich.
  • Wind along the coast can also force surface water down.

Any deviation in the image of an object when light passing from one medium to other is assciated to the phenomenon of refraction.

<h3>What is refraction ?</h3>

It is the deflection from a straight path undergone by a light ray while passing from one medium (such as air) into another (such as glass) in which its velocity is different.


Basically, the light refraction gives the pencil a slight magnifying effect, which makes the angle appear bigger than it actually is, causing the pencil to look crooked.

<h3 />
  • After Looking at the pencil from the side of a clear glass or resealable plastic bag filled three-fourths with water, we will see the light bends around the pencil, causing it to look bent in the water.

  • When the pencil tilt from side to side, It looks so dramatically broken on looking at it from different angles.
    We can magically “fix” the broken pencil by changing where the pencil is positioned in the glass.

Which statement best describes the pH of pure water? It is neutral because the concentration of hydronium ions equals that of hy
stira [4]

The pH of pure water has been best described as neutral pH with equal hydronium and hydroxide ions. Thus, option A is correct.

pH has been described as the measurement of hydrogen ions in a solution. The pH has been measured on a scale of 1-14. pH 7 has been the neutral pH.

The higher hydronium ion concentration tends to move the pH from 7 towards 1. The higher hydroxide ion concentration tends to move the pH above 7.

The neutral pH has been neither acidic nor basic with the equal constituents of hydronium and hydroxide ion in the solution.

Thus, the pH of pure water has been 7. It has neutral pH with equal hydronium and hydroxide ions. Thus, option A is correct.

For more information about the pH of the solution, refer to the link:
