Answer: The squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L
Explanation:
To calculate the new volume, we use the equation given by Boyle's law. This law states that pressure is directly proportional to the volume of the gas at constant temperature.
The equation given by this law is:

where,
are initial pressure and volume.
are final pressure and volume.
We are given:

Putting values in above equation, we get:

Thus the squirrel's balloon will be 0.86 L
Answer:

Explanation:
There are two heat transfers involved: the heat lost by the metal block and the heat gained by the water.
According to the Law of Conservation of Energy, energy can neither be destroyed nor created, so the sum of these terms must be zero.
Let the metal be Component 1 and the water be Component 2.
Data:
For the metal:

For the water:




Explanation:
Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3 (aq)
Overall, balanced molecular equation
Mg(s) + Cr(C2H3O2)3(aq) --> Mg(C2H3O2)3(aq) + Cr(s)
To identify if an element has been reduced or oxidized, the oxidation number is observed in both the reactant and product phase.
An increase in oxidation number denotes that the element has been oxidized.
A decrease in oxidation number denotes that the element has been reduced.
Oxidation number of Mg:
Reactant - 0
Product - +3
Oxidation number of Cr:
Reactant - +3
Product - 0
Note: C2H3O2 is actually acetate ion; CH3COO- The oxidatioon number of C, H and O do not change.
Oxidized : Mg
Reduced : Cr
Answer:
Explanation:
In a chemical formula, the oxidation state of transition metals can be determined by establishing the relationships between the electrons gained and that which is lost by an atom.
We know that for compounds to be formed, atoms would either lose, gain or share electrons between one another.
The oxidation state is usually expressed using the oxidation number and it is a formal charge assigned to an atom which is present in a molecule or ion.
To ascertain the oxidation state, we have to comply with some rules:
- The algebraic sum of all oxidation numbers of an atom in a neutral compound is zero.
- The algebraic sum of all the oxidation numbers of all atoms in an ion containing more than one kind of atom is equal to the charge on the ion.
For example, let us find the oxidation state of Cr in Cr₂O₇²⁻
This would be: 2x + 7(-2) = -2
x = +6
We see that the oxidation number of Cr, a transition metal in the given ion is +6.
Answer:
Explanation:
C) What is the multiplicity of Proton-alpha's signal in this scenario when there are 2 identical protons "next door"?
Based on n+1 rule. Here n=2 (identical beta protons).
2+1=3
So the multiplicity of alpha proton is triplet, .
D) For molecules containing only single bonds (we'll discuss the influence of double bonds in a future lecture), what is the adjective that describes the position of protons that split a "next door neighbor's" signal?
The meaning of the adjective is this: the multiplicity of beta protons is singlet only (no spliting) in absence of alpha proton . But beta protons splits as doublet (n=1) in the presence of alpha proton,
E) How many bonds connect these "splitting next door neighbors"?
There are 3 bonds in between alpha and beta protons in a molecule.
F) What is the multiplicity of the Proton-betas' signal?
Following the n+1 rule, here n=1 (1 alpha proton) so 1+1=2. Hence it is a doublet.
