A certain gas is present in a 10.0 L cylinder at 4.0 atm pressure. If the pressure is increased to 8.0 atm the volume of the gas decreases to 5.0 L . Find the two constants ki, the initial value of k, and kf, the final value of k, to verify whether the gas obeys Boyle’s law by entering the numerical values for ki and kf in the space provided.

 Hence ,  Ki = Kf

The gas is obeying the Boyle's law.

Explanation:

Given data:

The initial volume of the cylinder(in litres) =  = 12.0 L

The initial pressure(in atmospheric pressure) =  = 4.0 atm

The final pressure(in atmospheric pressure) = = 8.0 atm

The final volume of the cylinder(in litres) =  = 6.0 L

First you need to know what Boyle's law is:

Boyle's law states that the pressure of a given mass of an ideal gas is inversely proportional to its volume at a constant temperature.

The Mathematical form of Boyle's law is:

Where,

P = Pressure

V = Volume of the gas

k = Boyle's constant

According to the Boyle's law,

Plug-in the values in the above equation, you would get:

The final pressure(in atmospheric pressure) = = 8.0 atm

The final volume of the cylinder(in litres) == 5.0 L

The Boyle's constant = = ?

According to the Boyle's law,

Plug-in the values in the above equation, you would get:

in order to verify Boyle's law, the initial Boyle's constant should be EQUAL to the final Boyle's constant, meaning:

Since,

Therefore,

40 = 40

 Hence ,  Ki = Kf

The gas is obeying the Boyle's law.

pre-sliced bread is a relatively recent development in baking technology. previous to that, it was always sold in a bakery in daily-made contiguous loaves with no wrapping, and was moderately perishable, usually being used with a day or two (which is why every bakery had a discounted “day-old” bread table.) therefore, pre-sliced bread would grow stale quickly. the hard crust provided a protective layer, and once the exposed dry slice left from the previous cut was removed, the interior was still soft.

what keeps bread soft is the moisture retained in the crumb (the light spongy part that’s not crust). the reason the crust develops is the surface of the dough gets exposed to hot dry air during baking which browns the outer layer and seals it, preventing all the moisture from escaping the dough. longer exposure to air will also eventually cause your bread to lose flavor and become stale.

people were used to cutting slices as they needed them and storing bread in a specially-made wooden or metal breadbox or pail with a lid to preserve it longer, but the first automatically sliced commercial loaves were produced on july 6, 1928, in chillicothe, missouri, using a machine invented by otto rohwedder, an iowa-born, missouri-based jeweler.[1] pre-sliced bread would indeed dry out, were it not for another 20th century technology: the plastic bag. bread could now be pre-sliced, and if the enclosing bag remains sealed as much as possible, the bread will remain soft and fresh for longer than if sitting unwrapped on a shelf or enclosed in a bread box that is not air-tight. sealed packaging meant bread could also be sold on store shelves and eliminate frequent trips to a bakery.

sealing bread in a plastic bag had another effect: the moisture in the loaf will re-distribute into the crust and soften it, which is sometimes more pleasing in a sandwich - especially for children whose teeth might not yet be strong enough to tear through a hard crust. a homemade loaf of bread can be sealed in a bag overnight and the crust will become soft like store-bought sandwich bread.

these were novel changes in how bread was produced and sold, which led to the coining of the phrase “the greatest thing since sliced bread.”

did anyone actually do this? like if anyone has submitted this i rly need .
