When you blow air into a balloon your are increasing the number of moles of gas inside the balloon. The pressure is increased inside the balloon and the balloon expands until the pressure equalizes with the external atmospheric pressure. Why does the balloon expand?

Modern pennies are composed of zinc coated with copper. a student determines the mass of a penny to be 2.482 g and then makes several scratches in the copper coaling (to expose the underlying zinc). the student puts the scratched penny in hydrochloric acid, where the following reaction occurs between the zinc and the hcl (the copper remains undissolved): zn(s) + 2 hcl(aq) → h2(g) + zncl(aq)the student collects the hydrogen produced over water at 25 °c. the collected gas occupies a volume of 0.899 l at a total pressure of 79 j mmhg. calculate the percent zinc (by mass) in the penny. (assume that all the zn in the penny dissolves.)

What are the first two quantum numbers for the electrons located in subshell 4d? what are the first three quantum numbers for the electrons located in subshell 2s? how many electrons can be held in a sublevel l = 3? how many electrons can be held in the energy level n = 4? how many electrons in an atom can share the quantum numbers n = 4 and l = 3?

To find the enthalpy of a reaction in the lab, you measured the of the reactants and the change during the reaction.
