No. You always have mass. If you have 0 Volume there is no mass.

No, I don't think so. Even if it's really thin, a gas is still made out of
atoms and molecules, with protons, neutrons, and electrons inside.
As tiny as those all are, they still have mass and occupy space.
So you can push them closer together, but no matter how hard you
squeeze them, there must be some point where you can't make them
any smaller, because they can't completely stop occupying space.

We'll talk about black holes some other time.

By heat or change in matter,
there can be different reactions that create heat (like exothermic or endothermic reactions)

A cylinder with a moving piston expands from an initial volume of 0.250 L against an external pressure of 2.00 atm. The expansio

Step2247 [10]

The final volume of the gas is 144.25 L

Explanation:

For an ideal gas kept at constant pressure, the work done by the gas on the surroundings is given by

$W=p\Delta V = p(V_f - V_i)$

where

p is the pressure of the gas

$V_i$ is the initial volume

$V_f$ is the final volume

For the gas in the cylinder in this problem,

p = 2.00 atm

$V_i = 0.250 L$

And we also know the work done,

W = 288 J

So we can solve the equation for $V_f$ , the final volume:

$V_f = V_i + \frac{W}{p}=0.250 + \frac{288}{2.00}=144.25 L$

mafiozo [28]

Answer;

D. rocket engines are not dependent on oxygen from the air.

Explanation;

-Jet engines and rockets work on the same principle. They produce thrust through an internal pressure difference and, as explained by Newton’s Third Law of Motion, eject exhaust gases in an equal and opposite direction.

-The main difference between them is that jets get the oxygen to burn fuel from the air and rockets carry their own oxygen, which allows them to operate in space.

Additionally, Jet engines have two openings (an intake and an exhaust nozzle). Rocket engines only have one opening (an exhaust nozzle).
