Answer:
Scientific Question: ... I will boil water and add a substance like salt to see if the boiling point increases.
According to Gay-lussac’s law, if the temperature of a gas increases, then the the pressure ALSO INCREASES.
Answer:
d). A catalyst lowers the activation energy for a chemical reaction.
Explanation:
From the given choices, it is true that a catalyst lowers the activation energy for a chemical reaction.
The activation energy is the energy barrier that must be overcome before a chemical reaction can occur.
Some reactions have very high activation energy and would not occur without the introduction of a catalyst.
The catalyst brings the reactants into contact by removing the energy deficiency in the system.
Answer:
848 torr
Explanation:
The only variables are the pressure and the volume, so we can use Boyle's Law.
p₁V₁ = p₂V₂
Data:
p₁ = 565 torr; V₁ = 24.0 L
p₂ = ?; V₂ = 16.0 L
Calculations:
