if 11.74 liters of gas at STP are pumped into a basketball, how many moles of gas are in the basketball? assume the basketball w
ser-zykov [4K]

Answer:

0.52 mol

Explanation:

Using the general gas equation formula:

PV = nRT

Where;

P = pressure (atm)

V = volume (Liters)

n = number of moles (mol)

R = gas law constant (0.0821 Latm/molK)

T = temperature (K)

At STP (standard temperature and pressure), temperature of a gas is 273K, while its pressure is 1 atm

Using PV = nRT

n = PV/RT

n = (1 × 11.74) ÷ (0.0821 × 273)

n = 11.74 ÷ 22.41

n = 0.52 mol

There are 0.52 moles in the basketball

If a liquid substance is transferred to a different container, what can be predicted about the volume of the liquid in the new c
taurus [48]

The same

Explanation:

If a liquid substance is transferred to a different container, the volume of the liquid in the new container will remain the same.

The volumes of liquids are fixed and does not change. Wherever they are contained, just like solids, they maintain their constant space.

  • Volume is the amount of space occupied by a body.
  • Gases do not have fixed volume as they fill their containers and they take up the shape.
  • Solids and liquids have a fixed volume.
  • They do not change their volume.

Atoms are made up of three subatomic particles called protons, neutrons, and electrons.

Protons and neutrons are located in the nucleus.

All protons have a positive charge.

All neutrons have no charge or are neutral.

Electrons orbit around the nucleus and have a negative charge.
