The volume of a sample of oxygen is 300.0 mL, when the pressure is 1.00 atm and the temperature is 300K. At what pressure will the volume be 1000.0 mL and a temperature of 500K?

The new pressure is 0.5 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of oxygen = 300 mL = 0.300 L

Pressure = 1.00 atm

Temperature = 300 K

The volume increases to 1000mL = 1.00 L

The temperature increases to 500 K

Step 2: Calculate the new pressure

(P1*V1)/T1 = (P2*V2)/T2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure = 1.00 atm

⇒with V1 = the initial volume = 0.300 L

⇒with T1 = the initial temperature = 300 K

⇒with P2 = the new pressure = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with V2 = the increased volume = 1.00 L

⇒with T2 = the increased temperature = 500 K

(1.00 atm* 0.300 L)/300 K = (P2 * 1.00L) / 500 K

P2 = (1.00 *0.300 * 500) / (300 *1.00)

P2 = 0.5 atm

The new pressure is 0.5 atm

  the   balanced   equation   for   reaction of   ca metal   with   o2 to   produce   cao   is as below

2 ca+ o2→ 2 cao2

  explanation

the reaction is   balanced     since the   number of atoms   in reactant side is   equal to   number of atoms   in   product side.   for   example   they   are 2   atom of   ca in   reactant   side   and   2   atoms of ca   in   the product side.

  the   process   is a   meet the   requirement   of   redox   reaction because :     calcium   is   oxidized   from   oxidation state 0   to 2+   while   oxygen   is reduced from   oxidation   state   0   to 2-
