Mrs. Borunda has a sample of oxygen gas that occupies a volume of 600 L at 400 atm pressure. What will the pressure be if she increases the volume to 800 L?

300 atm

450 atm

540 atm

250 atm

P₂ = 300 atm

Explanation:

Given that,

Initial volume, V₁ = 600 L

Initial pressure, P₁ = 400 atm

We need to find the pressure if the volume is 800 L.

We know that the relation between pressure and volume is given by :

So, the new pressure is equal to 300 atm.

1. for the first question, we must find the mass of the anhydrous salt, mgso₄. the molar mass for mgso₄·7h₂o is 246.47 g/mol, while that of mgso₄ is 120.37 g/mol.7.834 g mgso₄·7h₂o * 1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o/246.47 g * 1 mol mgso₄/1 mol mgso₄·7h₂o * 20.37 g mgso₄/mol = 0.647 g mgso₄

2. mass of water = mass of sample - mass of anhydrous salemass of water = 7.834 - 0.647 = 7.19 gpercent water in hydrate = 7.19/7.834 * 100 = 91.74%
