Answer:

NiCl₂·4H₂O, its name being nickel (II) chloride tetrahydrate.

Explanation:

The constant mass achieved after heating is the mass of anhydrous nickel (II) chloride, NiCl₂. While the mass lost was water.

  • Mass lost = 1.167 g - 0.750 g = 0.417 g

Now we <u>convert 0.750 g of NiCl₂ into moles</u>, using <em>its molar mass</em>:

  • 0.750 g NiCl₂ ÷ 129.6 g/mol = 0.0058 mol NiCl₂

Then we <u>convert 0.417 g of H₂O into moles</u>:

  • 0.417 g H₂O ÷ 18 g/mol = 0.0231 mol H₂O

With the above information we can calculate that the number of H₂O moles is 4 times higher than the number of NiCl₂ moles.

Meaning that <em>the formula of the hydrate is NiCl₂·4H₂O</em>, its name being nickel (II) chloride tetrahydrate.

If a sample of air initially occupies 240L at 2 atm how much pressure is required to compress it to 20L at constant temperature
IceJOKER [234]

Answer:

24 atm.

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Initial volume (V₁) = 240 L

Initial pressure (P₁) = 2 atm

Final volume (V₂) = 20 L

Temperature = constant

Final pressure (P₂) =?

The final pressure required, can be obtained by using the Boyle's law equation as shown below:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

2 × 240 = P₂ × 20

480 = P₂ × 20

Divide both side by 20

P₂ = 480 / 20

P₂ = 24 atm

Thus, the final pressure required is 24 atm.

What would cause the pressure of a gas to increase?​
IrinaK [193]

Answer: The pressure of a gas will increase when there is a decrease in the volume of the gas.

Explanation: according to Boyle's law, the volume of a gas will decrease when the pressure is increased at constant temperature and vice versa.

Answer:

Explanation:

"Nature does this job through a process called the water cycle. Also known as hydrologic cycle, the water cycle is a phenomenon where water moves through the three phases (gas, liquid and solid) over the four spheres (atmosphere, lithosphere, hydrosphere and biosphere) and completes a full cycle. The water cycle has many effects: it regulates the temperature of the surroundings. It changes weather and creates rain. It helps in conversion of rocks to soil. It circulates important minerals through the spheres. It also creates the many geographical features present on earth like the ice caps of mountains, icebergs, the rivers and the valleys, lakes, and more. Hence it is quite important to understand and learn the processes of the water cycle."
