Answer:

P₂ = 2.88 atm

Explanation:

Given data:

Initial volume of gas = 1.8 L

Final volume = 750 mL

Initial pressure = 17.5 Psi

Final pressure = ?

Solution:

We will convert the units first:

Initial pressure = 17.5 /14.696 = 1.2 atm

Final volume = 750 mL ×1L/1000L = 0.75 L

The given problem will be solved through the Boly's law,

"The volume of given amount of gas is inversely proportional to its pressure by keeping the temperature and number of moles constant"

Mathematical expression:

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = Initial pressure

V₁ = initial volume

P₂ = final pressure

V₂ = final volume

Now we will put the values in formula,

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

1.2 atm × 1.8 L = P₂ ×0.75 L

P₂ = 2.16 atm. L/ 0.75 L

P₂ = 2.88 atm

Answer: The equilibrium constant for $NO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons NO(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)$ equation is $1.36\times 10^{-7}$

Explanation:

The given chemical equation follows:

$2NO(g)+O_2(g)\rightleftharpoons 2NO_2(g)$

The value of equilibrium constant for the above equation is $K_{eq}=5.4\times 10^{13}$

Calculating the equilibrium constant for the given equation:

$NO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons NO(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)$

The value of equilibrium constant for the above equation will be:

$K'_{eq}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{K_{eq}}}\\\\K'_{eq}=\frac{1}{\sqrt{5.4\times 10^{13}}}\\\\K'_{eq}=1.36\times 10^{-7}$

Hence, the equilibrium constant for $NO_2(g)\rightleftharpoons NO(g)+\frac{1}{2}O_2(g)$ equation is $1.36\times 10^{-7}$

Calculate the ratio of effusion rates of cl2 to f2 .

Lelechka [254]

Answer: Graham's law of gaseous effusion states that the rate of effusion goes by the inverse root of the gas' molar mass. râšM = constant Therefore for two gases the ratio rates is given by: r1 / r2 = âš(M2 / M1) For Cl2 and F2: r(Cl2) / r(F2) = âš{(37.9968)/(70.906)} = 0.732 (to 3.s.f.)

Keith_Richards [23]

Answer:

$\°C=5.8x10^3\°C$

$\°F=1.1x10^4\°F$

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, for the calculation of the temperature in degree Celsius we subtract 273.15 to the given temperature in kelvins:

$\°C=6100-273.15\\\\\°C=5.8x10^3\°C$

Next, by applying the following equation we compute it in degree Fahrenheit:

$\°F=(5.8x10^{3}*9/5) + 32\\\\\°F=1.1x10^4\°F$

Clearly, since the initial unit has two significant figures the computed units also show two significant figures.

Regards.

enot [183]

Mass percentage is another way of expressing concentration of a substance in a mixture. Mass percentage is calculated as the mass of a component divided by the total mass of the mixture, multiplied by 100%. It is calculated as follows:

% CaCO3 = (1.82g of calcium carbonate / (1.05 g SiO2 + 0.69 g of cellulose + 1.82g of calcium carbonate)) x 100% = 51.12% Calcium carbonate

Which processes occur during the second stage of technological design? Check all that apply.

Lena [83]

There is four stages of technological design:1. identify a problem or need.2. design a solution.3. implement, build, test the design.4. determine if the solution met the need.To design a solution is second stage of technological design.
