A given sample of oxygen occupies 500 mL when the pressure is 800 mmHg. What volume will the gas occupy at 200 mmHg, provided the temperature remains constant?

The volume of the gas at 200 mmHg will be 2 L.

Explanation:

As the volume increases, the gas particles (atoms or molecules) take longer to reach the walls of the container and therefore collide with them fewer times per unit of time. This means that the pressure will be lower because it represents the frequency of collisions of the gas against the walls. In this way pressure and volume are related, determining Boyle's law which says:

"The volume occupied by a certain gaseous mass at constant temperature is inversely proportional to pressure"

Boyle's law is expressed mathematically as:

P * V = k

Now it is possible to assume that you have a certain volume of gas V1 that is at a pressure P1 at the beginning of the experiment. If you vary the volume of gas to a new value V2, then the pressure will change to P2, and it will be fulfilled:

P1 * V1 = P2 * V2

In this case:

Replacing:

800 mmHg* 500 mL= 200 mmHg* V2

Solving:

V2= 2,000 mL= 2 L (being 1,000 mL=1 L)

The volume of the gas at 200 mmHg will be 2 L.

kuchisake

kuchisake-onna (口裂け女, "slit mouth woman ") is a malevolent figure appearing in japanese ghost stories, possibly dating back to the edo period. she takes the form of a masked woman who approaches people and asks them if they believe she is pretty.

explanation:

the electronic configuration of an atom with eight electrons is 1s²2s²2p⁴. the orbital diagrams are shown in the figure.

as per the hunds rule:

1. electrons tend to avoid being in the same orbital as per as practicable.

2. electrons in different orbitals of the same energy will have their spin parallel.

this can be illustrated from the multiplicity of the orbitals of the atom. as there are four electrons in the p orbital and p orbital has 3 sub-shells. the electrons can be fed in different ways as shown in the figure but the correct orbital diagram will be as per the hunds rule.
