Asample of he gas (3.0 l) at 5.6 atm and 25°c was combined with 4.5 l of ne gas at 3.6 atm and 25°c at constant temperature in a 9.0 l flask. the total pressure in the flask was atm. assume the initial pressure in the flask was 0.00 atm.

3.6667

Explanation:

For helium gas:

Using Boyle's law  

Given ,  

V₁ = 3.0 L

V₂ = 9.0 L

P₁ = 5.6 atm

P₂ = ?

Using above equation as:

The pressure exerted by the helium gas in 9.0 L flask is 1.8667 atm

For Neon gas:

Using Boyle's law  

Given ,  

V₁ = 4.5 L

V₂ = 9.0 L

P₁ = 3.6 atm

P₂ = ?

Using above equation as:

The pressure exerted by the neon gas in 9.0 L flask is 1.8 atm

Thus total pressure = 1.8667 + 1.8 atm = 3.6667 atm.

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.

why is cellular respiration important for homeostasis?

it changes food into energy that the organism can use.
