Question:
A cylinder with a movable piston contains 3 moles of hydrogen at standard temperature and pressure. The walls of the cylinder are made of a heat insulator, and the piston is insulated by having a pile of sand on it. By what factor does the pressure of the gas increase if the gas is compressed to half its original volume?

- Consider the reactions:
- H3PO2(aq) + 4 AgNO3(aq) + 2 H2O(l) \(\rightarrow\) H3PO4(aq) + 4Ag(s) + 4HNO3(aq)
- H3PO2(aq) + 2CuSO4(aq) + 2 H2O(l) \(\rightarrow\) H3PO4(aq) + 2Cu(s) + H2SO4(aq)
- C6H5CHO(l) + 2[Ag (NH3)2]+(aq) + 3OH- (aq) \(\rightarrow\) C6H5COO- (aq) + 2Ag(s) + 4NH3(aq) + 2 H2O(l)
- C6H5CHO(l) + 2Cu2+(aq) + 5OH-(aq) \(\rightarrow\) No change observed.
What inference do you draw about the behaviour of Ag+ and Cu2+ from these reactions?
