A 2.0 L flexible container holds 5.0 moles of oxygen (O2) gas. An additional 15.0 moles of nitrogen gas (N2) is added to the container. What is the new volume of the container?

8liters

Explanation:

Total volume = V(O2) + V(N2).

V(O2) = 2.0 L; V(N2) = X L.

If:

2.0 L = 5.0 moles

X L = 15.0 moles.

Then,

V(N2) = X L = (15.0 moles) * (2.0 L) / (5.0 moles) = 6.0 L.

Finally,

Total volume = VTotal (container) = V(O2) + V(N2) = 2.0 L + 6.0 L = 8.0 L.

Total volume = 8.0 L.

8.0 L is the new volume of the container.

why is arctic sea ice important? arctic sea ice keeps the polar regions cool and moderate global climate. sea ice has a bright surface; 80 percent of the sunlight that strikes it is reflected back into space. as sea ice melts in the summer, it exposes the dark ocean surface.
