The density of gas particles in a section of Earth’s atmosphere decreases. Which of the following is the most likely explanation

for this event?
Chemistry
1 answer:
Bad White [126]3 years ago

<span>This is due to the fact that the air pressure in that certain section of Earth’s atmosphere decreased. As density of gas particles decreases as air pressure decreases. Therefore, density of gas particles and air pressure have a direct relationship. An increase in air pressure would then effect to an increase in gas particles. </span>

Oxygen gas is collected over water. The atmospheric pressure is 748 mmHg, and the temperature of the oxygen is 29 ºC. The pressu
KonstantinChe [14]

The pressure of the oxygen gas collected : 718 mmHg

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

P tot = 748 mmHg

P water vapour = 30 mmHg

Required

P Oxygen

Solution

Dalton's law of partial pressures states that the total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of the component gases

Can be formulated:

P tot = P1 + P2 + P3 ....

The partial pressure is the pressure of each gas in a mixture

P tot = P H₂O + P Oxygen

P Oxygen = 748 mmHg - 30 mmHg

P Oxygen = 718 mmHg

Why Ca(OH)2 is a base?
Ray Of Light [21]
Calcium Hydroxide (Ca(OH)2) or slaked lime is a base because in aqueous solution of slaked lime there are hydroxide ions available due to the dissociation of electrolyte (Ca(OH)2).

What happens to the average kinetic energy of a gas when the particles of the gas collide against each other at a constant tempe
LuckyWell [14K]

Answer:

The average kinetic energy drastically increases.

Explanation:

The average kinetic energy drastically increases when the gas particles collide against each other at a constant temperature and volume because the collision will increase the heat content of gas at a particular temperature and gas particles begin to move faster as gain more kinetic energy.

Hence, the correct answer is "B".
