The vapor pressure of liquid diethyl ether, C2H5OC2H5, is 40.0 mm Hg at 245 K.A sample of C2H5OC2H5 is placed in a closed, evacuated container of constant volume at a temperature of 387 K. It is found that all of the C2H5OC2H5 is in the vapor phase and that the pressure is 65.0 mm Hg. If the temperature in the container is reduced to 245 K, which of the following statements are correct?Choose all that apply. -The pressure in the container will be 41.1 mm Hg. -Liquid diethyl ether will be present. -Only diethyl ether vapor will be present. -No condensation will occur. -Some of the vapor initially present will condense.
States of Matter
The substance that constitutes everything in the universe is known as matter. Matter comprises atoms which in turn are composed of electrons, protons, and neutrons. Different atoms combine together to give rise to molecules that act as a foundation for all kinds of substances. There are five states of matter based on their energies of attraction, namely solid, liquid, gases, plasma, and BEC (Bose-Einstein condensates).
Chemical Reactions and Equations
When a chemical species is transformed into another chemical species it is said to have undergone a chemical reaction. It consists of breaking existing bonds and forming new bonds by changing the position of electrons. These reactions are best explained using a chemical equation.
