If a 2 liter container with an initial pressure of 2 atms is crushed to half its original volume what would its new pressure be in kPa’s
The final pressure will be 405.3 kilopascals.
Explanation:According to the Boyle's Law, the pressure of the gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas as the temperature of the gas remains constant.
So,PV = Constant.
Here in this question, the volume of the container is halved.
Let the Pressure of the gas initially be P1 and final pressure be P2. Volume of gas initially be V
So, according to Boyle's Law,
P₁V₁ = P₂V₂PP.
So, [tex]2 \times V[/tex] = P₂[tex]\frac V2[/tex].
So, P2 = 4 atm.
1atm = 101.325 kilo pascals.
So, 4 atm = [tex]4\times101.325[/tex] kilopascals. = 405.3 kilopascals.

It is an origin for the all element formation . in an element all atoms are maximum identical that's why they are difficult to divide and destruct. John Dalton stated that all matters consist of atoms which are said to be the smallest thing .If one force on an object on an object is 5N upward and the other obect is 10N downward, what is the object's motion ?
Answer: It will move down
Explanation: Since there is an unbalanced force on the object its motion is directed on the side with the greatest amount of force.
Final answer:
With a net force of 5N downward, the object will accelerate downward.
Explanation:
If one force on an object is exerted 5N upward and another force is 10N downward, we can calculate the net force to determine the object's motion. By subtracting the upward force from the downward force, we get a net force of 10N - 5N = 5N downward. Since the net force is downward, the object will accelerate in the downward direction according to Newton's Second Law of Motion, assuming no other forces are acting on the object.

C.
reflection
D.
interference
When light fall on the different object. There will be an interaction between light and matter. It may happen interaction, reflection, refraction. Wave bounce off process is known as reflection.
What is reflection?If the surface is smooth and shiny, like glass, water or polished metal, the light will reflect at the same angle as it hit the surface. Reflection is the change in direction of a wave at the surface of two different media so that the wave returns into the medium from the same.
Refraction light waves change speed when they pass across the two substances with different density. Resonance is when electromagnetic waves can make thing vibrate. Interference is not bounce off phenomena.
Light have dual nature, sometime it behaves as a particle and sometimes it behaves as a wave.
Thus, the bounce back of the light is called the reflection of light.

How many moles are in 250 grams of carbon dioxide gas
Answer:
5.68 mol of CO₂
Explanation:
Mole is a chemical unit used to determine the amount of a substance also referred as chemical amount. Also, it represents 6.022 × 10²³ of an entity. For example, 1 mole of Magnesium metals contains 6.022 × 10²³ atoms.
Mole is given as,
Moles = Mass / M.Mass
This equation shows that when the mass of a substance is given then one can calculate its moles by dividing its mass by M.Mass or Atomic Mass.
As we know the M.Mass of CO₂ is 44.01 g/mol therefore, the moles are calculated as,
Moles = 250 g / 44.01 g/mol
Moles = 5.68 mol of CO₂

How is n1 in the Rydberg equation related to the quantum number n in the Bohr model?How is n1 in the Rydberg equation related to the quantum number n in the Bohr model?
Answer: The n in Bohr model of the atom is principle quantum number.
The Rydberg n integer stats represent electron orbits at various integral distances from the atom in Bohr's conceptualization of the atom. Subsequent models discovered that the values for n1 and n2 match the two orbitals ' principle quantum numbers.
Explanation: pls mark brainliest :,)
Final answer:
In the Rydberg equation, n1 is related to the principal quantum number n in the Bohr model, where n1 is the lower energy level an electron transitions from, and n2 is the higher energy level it transitions to.
Explanation:
In the Rydberg equation, n1 and n2 represent the principal quantum numbers corresponding to the initial and final energy levels of an electron in a hydrogen atom, respectively. When an electron transitions between these energy levels, it emits or absorbs a photon whose energy corresponds to the difference in energy between these levels.
The Bohr model describes an electron's energy levels in terms of quantum numbers; thus, the quantum number n in the Bohr model is directly related to n1 and n2 in the Rydberg equation. Specifically, n1 corresponds to the lower energy level (initial state) and n2 to the higher energy level (final state) of an electron's transition.
For example, in the Balmer series, the final energy level nf is always 2, while the initial level ni is greater than nf (e.g., ni = 3, 4, 5, ...). The transitions between these levels give rise to visible light of specific wavelengths, as dictated by the Rydberg formula.
At 1400 mm Hg, a gas has a volume of 350L. What is it volume at stander pressure?
Answer:
V₂ = 630 L
Explanation:
Given data:
Initial volume = 350 L
Initial pressure = 1400 mmHg (1400/760 = 1.8 atm)
Final volume = ?
Final pressure = standard = 1 atm
Solution:
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
1.8 atm × 350 L = 1 atm × V₂
V₂ = 630 atm. L/1 atm
V₂ = 630 L
To find the volume of gas at standard pressure, use Boyle's Law. Given an initial pressure of 1400 mm Hg and volume of 350L, at standard pressure (760 mm Hg) the volume would be 500L.
Explanation:To determine the gas volume at standard pressure when given a volume at a different pressure, we can use Boyle's Law, which states that the product of pressure and volume is constant for a given amount of gas at a constant temperature (P1V1 = P2V2). Standard pressure (STP) is defined as 1 atm, which is equivalent to 760 mm Hg. The volume of the gas at STP can thus be calculated using the initial conditions:
V2 = (P1 * V1) / P2
Substitute the provided values:
P1 = 1400 mm Hg
V1 = 350 L
P2 = 760 mm Hg (standard pressure)
Now, rearrange the equation to solve for V2:
V2 = (1400 mm Hg * 350 L) / 760 mm Hg = 500 L
Thus, the volume of the gas at standard pressure would be 500 L.
A chemist determined by measurements that 0.045 miles of barium participated in a chemical reaction. Calculate the mass of barium that participated in the chemical reaction
Answer: m= 6.2 g Ba
Explanation: Solution:
0.045 moles Ba x 137 g Ba / 1 mole Ba
= 6.2 g Ba
Final answer:
To calculate the mass of barium that participated in a chemical reaction, multiply the number of moles (0.045) by the molar mass of barium (137.327 g/mol) to get the mass in grams, which is 6.1797 grams.
Explanation:
The question seems to contain a typographical error, as '0.045 miles of barium' is not a valid measure for the amount of a chemical substance. The correct measurement should likely be 'moles' rather than 'miles'. To calculate the mass of barium (Ba) that participated in a chemical reaction, you need to use the molar mass of barium.
Firstly, the molar mass of barium is 137.327 g/mol. Therefore, the calculation to find the mass from moles is:
Identify the number of moles given, which is 0.045 moles of barium.
Calculate the mass by multiplying the number of moles by the molar mass of barium (0.045 moles * 137.327 g/mol).
The result gives you the mass of barium in grams.
For example:
Mass of Ba = 0.045 mol * 137.327 g/mol = 6.1797 g
Therefore, the mass of barium that participated in the chemical reaction is 6.1797 grams.

Explanation : Given,
Mass of [tex]Na[/tex] = 83.0 g
Molar mass of [tex]Na[/tex] = 23 g/mol
First we have to calculate the moles of [tex]Na[/tex]
[tex]\text{Moles of }Na=\frac{\text{Given mass }Na}{\text{Molar mass }Na}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Moles of }Na=\frac{83.0g}{23g/mol}=3.61mol[/tex]
Now we have to calculate the moles of [tex]NaCl[/tex]
The balanced chemical equation is:
[tex]2Na+Cl_2\rightarrow 2NaCl[/tex]
From the reaction, we conclude that
As, 2 mole of [tex]Na[/tex] react to give 2 mole of [tex]NaCl[/tex]
So, 3.61 mole of [tex]Na[/tex] react to give 3.61 mole of [tex]NaCl[/tex]
Therefore, the number of moles of [tex]NaCl[/tex] produced will be, 3.61 moles.

Name one way igneous rock is different from metamorphic rock.
Answer:
Metamorphic rock is classified by texture and composition. The texture of a metamorphic rock can be either foliated and appear layered or banded, or non-foliated and appear uniform in texture without banding. Foliated rocks contain many different kinds of minerals, but non-foliated rocks contain only one main mineral, which contributes to their more uniform appearance. Igneous rocks are classified according to mode of occurrence, texture, mineralogy, chemical composition, and the geometry of the igneous body.

Which of the following changes to a pipe would increase the conductance by a factor of 12?
A. Quadrupling the length and tripling the radius.
B. Reducing the length by a factor of and doubling the radius.
C. Tripling the length and reducing the radius by a factor of .
D. Reducing the length but a factor of and doubling the radius.
C. Tripling the length and reducing the radius by a factor of 2 is the change to a pipe would increase the conductance by a factor of 12.
Explanation:
As we know that the resistance is directly proportional to the length of the pipe and it is inversely proportional to the cross sectional area of the pipe.
So it is represented as,
R∝ l /A [ area is radius square]
So k is the proportionality constant used.
R = kl/A
Conductance is the inverse of resistance, so it is given as,
C= 1/R.
R₁ = kl₁ / A₁
R₂ = kl₂/A₂
R₂/R₁ = 1/12 [∵ conductance is the inverse of resistance]
= l₂A₁ / l₁A₂
If we chose l₁/l₂= 3 and A₂/A₁= 4 So R₂/R₁= 1/3×4 = 1/12
So tripling the length and reducing the radius by a factor of 2 would increase the conductance by a factor of 12.
Answer:
Reducing the length by a factor of 1/3 and doubling the radius.

The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of
the gases that make it up.
OA) Boyle's law
OB) Dalton's law
OC) Charles's law
OD) combined gas law
Answer:
Dalton's Law, or the Law of Partial Pressures, states that the total pressure exerted by a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the gases in the mixture.The total pressure of a mixture of gases is the sum of the partial pressures of the gases that make it up is described by Dalton's Law. The correct answer is OB) Dalton's law.
Dalton's law, also known as the law of partial pressures, states that the total pressure exerted by a mixture of non-reacting gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the individual gases. In other words, each gas in a mixture contributes to the total pressure independently based on its own partial pressure. This law is applicable when the gases do not chemically react with each other and occupy the same volume.
Boyle's law (OA) describes the relationship between pressure and volume of a gas at constant temperature.
Charles's law (OC) relates the volume and temperature of a gas at constant pressure.
The combined gas law (OD) combines Boyle's, Charles's, and Gay-Lussac's laws to describe the relationship between pressure, volume, and temperature of a gas when all three variables change simultaneously.

Answer:
Among the different types of scientific knowledge hypotheses are likely to be modified or discarded most frequently. Long ago in the 1600's scientists discarded the phlogiston theory because the new evidence didnt support it.
Explanation:
Hypothesis is the assumption of something possible or impossible to draw a consequence and is provisionally established as the basis for an investigation and which can confirm or deny its validity. For this reason, within scientific research, hypotheses are so important and so changeable that they are modified or discarded more frequently within scientific knowledge.
Based on a work by Johann Joachim Becher, the German scientist Georg Ernst Stahl created the phlogiston theory that said combustion occurred with certain materials because they had an “element” or a common flammable principle that was released at the time of burning . This theory was abandoned because there was no evidence, even through scientific experiments, to prove that this theory is true.
Hypotheses are likely to be modified or discarded most frequently in scientific knowledge. Phlogiston theory was discarded due to evidence contradicting its predictions.

EXPLAIN WHY THE AIR PRESSURE ON THE BEACH IN HAWAILIS
GREATER THAN THE PRESSURE ON TOP OF MAUNA KEA. (A
VOLCANIC PEAK)
The air pressure on the beach in Hawaii is greater than on top of Mauna Kea due to the greater altitude of Mauna Kea, which has less atmospheric mass above it exerting force. The atmospheric pressure is more substantial at sea level, where the complete atmosphere is overhead. Despite the large force exerted by air pressure when sunbathing on the beach, equal pressure inside the body allows one to easily stand up.
The air pressure on the beach in Hawaii is greater than the pressure on top of Mauna Kea due to differences in altitude. Atmospheric pressure decreases with altitude because the density of air molecules decreases as you go higher in the atmosphere; there are fewer air molecules above a given area exerting less force. At sea level, the pressure is at its highest because the full column of the atmosphere is above that point. In contrast, at the peak of Mauna Kea, which is 4.2 kilometers high, the column of air above it is significantly shorter, resulting in a lower pressure.
When lying on the beach sunbathing, the large force of atmospheric pressure, which is roughly equal to 10 tons, is exerted over the entire surface area of your body. However, because this pressure is exerted uniformly in all directions, your body's internal pressure, which is adjusted to the external atmospheric pressure, allows you to stand up without being crushed.
The air pressure for a certain tire is 109 kPa. What is this pressure in atmospheres?
1.08 atm is the pressure for a certain tire in atmosphere.
Explanation:
One kilo pascal (1 kPa) corresponds to 1000 pascal. Another common unit used for pressure is atmosphere (symbolised as ‘atm’). 1 atm refers the standard atmospheric pressures and corresponds to 760 mm Hg and 101.3 kPa. Atmospheric pressures are commonly referred as square inches (psi)/ pounds.
[tex]1 \mathrm{atm}=101.3 \mathrm{kPa}=101,325 \mathrm{Pa}=760 \mathrm{mm} \mathrm{Hg}=760 \text { torr }=14.7 \mathrm{lb} / \mathrm{in}^{2}(\mathrm{psi})[/tex]
Given:
The air pressure for a certain tire = 109 kPa
We need to find pressure in atmospheres
So, we know,
1 atm = 101.3 kPa
Hence,
[tex]\frac{109 \mathrm{kPa}}{1} \times \frac{1 \mathrm{atm}}{101.3 \mathrm{kPa}}=1.076=1.08 \mathrm{atm}[/tex]
1.08 atm is the pressure for a certain tire in atmosphere.
The pressure in atmosphere is = 1.08 atmosphere.
Conversation of pressureThe atmospheric pressure can be measured using a barometer in units of measurement called atmospheres or bars.
To convert 109 kPa pressure to atmosphere,
101.325 kPa = 1 atm
109 kPa = X
Cross multiply to solve for x,
[tex]x = \frac{1 \times 109}{101.325} [/tex]
X = 1.075
X = 1.08 atmosphere.

the pressure on a gas at -73° C is doubled but its volume is held constant. what will the final temperature in degrees be?
Answer:
127.15 °C
Explanation:
Gay-Lussac's law states that the pressure of a given mass of gas directly proportional to the absolute temperature of the gas at constant volume.
Mathematically,
P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂ -----(1)
Data Given:
Initial Pressure = P₁ = 1 atm (assumed)
Initial Temperature = T₁ = -73°C = 200.15 K
Final Pressure = P₂ = 2 atm (doubled)
Final Temperature = T₂ = ????
Solving equation 1 for T₂,
T₂ = P₂ × T₁ / P₁
Putting these values;
T₂ = 2 atm × 200.15 K / 1 atm
T₂ = 400.3 K
Or,
T₂ = 127.15 °C
Conclusion:
By doubling the pressure results in increase in temperature.
The final temperature of the gas, when its pressure is doubled and volume held constant, increases from -73°C to 127°C.
To determine the final temperature of a gas when its pressure is doubled and volume remains constant, we use the Ideal Gas Law which can be expressed as PV = nRT.
When volume is held constant, the relationship between pressure and temperature is direct, i.e., P₁/T₁ = P₂/T₂Given the initial temperature (T1) is -73°C, which converts to 200 K (273 - 73), and the initial pressure (P1) is doubled to P₂= 2P₁, the formula becomes:
P₁ / 200 K = (2P₁) / T₂To find T₂ isolate T₂:
T₂ = 2 * 200 KT₂ = 400 KThus, the final temperature of the gas in degrees Kelvin is 400 K.
To convert back to degrees Celsius, subtract 273:
400 K - 273 = 127°CThe final temperature of the gas is 127°C.
How many molecules of water are present in 7.9 g of water
Answer:
The number of molecules = 2.6408 molecules
Explanation:
To determine the number of molecules in water, we need to determine how many moles of water we have
Water has a molar mass of 18.015g/mol, this means that one mole of water molecules has a mass of 18.015g
To find the number of molecules,
7.9g * 1 mole H2O/ 18.015g
= 0.4385mole of H2O
Using avogadro number,
0.4385 H2O * 6.022* 10^23molecules/ 1 mole of H2O
That's 0.4385 H2O multipled by 6.022*10^ 23 molecules divided by 1 mole of H2O
Which gives == 2.6408 molecules
why lead carbonate is not reacted with sulphuric acid in the formation of carbon dioxide
Answer:
Lead carbonate is not reacted with sulphuric acid in the formation of carbon dioxide because lead is insoluble in water. The reason is that lead is non polar substance and water is polar solvent means it makes positive and negative poles. Only polar solute dissolve in polar solvent and non polar solute dissolve in non polar solvent. So that's why lead carbonate do not dissolve in water and makes a layer on the water.

What happens inside a can of spoiled food as gas is produced?
When food spoils inside a can, bacteria produce gas as a byproduct of fermentation and decomposition. This gas increases pressure within the can, risking deformation or bursting, especially at higher temperatures. Additionally, terminal corrosion can further contribute to spoilage and container failure.
Inside a can of spoiled food, gas production occurs due to the fermentation process and decomposition carried out by bacteria. When food spoils, bacteria break down organic matter, producing gases such as hydrogen sulfide or methane as byproducts. These gases can cause pressure increase within the sealed environment of the can, potentially leading to deformation or bursting of the container if left unchecked.
Reactions and Consequences
As spoilage progresses, the pressure inside the can rises due to the accumulation of gases. Given that the can is a rigid container, its inability to expand means that the growing number of gas molecules continue to strike the can's walls with increasing force. This is further exacerbated when the temperature of the environment rises, as it gives the gas molecules more kinetic energy, causing more frequent and forceful collisions, leading to a drastic increase in pressure that could result in the can bursting.
Additionally, terminal corrosion of the can may occur towards the end of its service life, where the protective coating is depleted, allowing corrosion and pitting of the can. If the internal environment remains anaerobic, electrochemical anodic reactions can lead to further gas formation and eventual pinholing of the can body, compromising its hermetic seal and leading to spoilage or contamination of the food product.
