To what pressure must a gas be compressed in order to get into a 3.00 cubic foot tank the entire weight of a gas that occupies 400.0 cu. ft. at standard pressure?

133.3atm

Explanation:

Given parameters:

Initial volume  = 400ft³

Final volume  = 3ft³

Initial pressure = 1atm

Unknown:

Final pressure  = ?

Solution:

To solve this problem, we  apply Boyle's law which states that "the volume of a fixed mass of a gas varies inversely as the pressure changes if the temperature is constant".

  Mathematically;

               P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P and V are pressure and volume

1 and 2 are initial and final states;

   Insert parameters and solve;

                1 x 400  = P₂ x 3

                     P₂  = 133.3atm

2h2o2--> 2h2o + o2

this reaction is of the spontaneous decomposition of hydrogen peroxide down into water and oxygen.

add 2 molecules of hydrogen peroxide and 2 molecules of water. since oxygen is naturally diatomic, the total number of atoms of each element is now the same on both sides of the equation so it is balanced.

this may not be entirely correct but let me know.
