The statement that is an alloy is just another word for a chemical compound of fixed composition that is made of two or more metals is false.
An alloy refers to the mixture of the elements in which the parent element is the metal. An alloy is produced by the amalgamation of any element, that is, metal or non-metal to better the feature of the parent metal. The whole components in the alloy are combined to produce a mixture of fixed composition, but not a chemical compound, and it is not essential that the elements involved are metals. Thus, the mentioned statement is false.
According to the U.S. Geological Survey, most of that three percent is inaccessible. Over 68 percent of the fresh water on Earth is found in icecaps and glaciers, and just over 30 percent is found in ground water. Only about 0.3 percent of our fresh water is found in the surface water of lakes, rivers, and swamps.
For a fixed mass of gas at constant temperature, the volume is inversely proportional to the pressure. That means that, for example, if you double the pressure, you will halve the volume. If you increase the pressure 10 times, the volume will decrease 10 times.
So the volume will decrease.
