In a rigid container, when the speed of the gas molecules decreases, the pressure of the gas also decreases. true or false

Chemistry

KIM [24]3 years ago

In order to understand this question and to answer it correctly, there are some definitions/terms that need to be acknowledged.

 Firstly, TEMPERATURE is defined as the average KINETIC ENERGY of a sample. So, in the question when the reference is made to the speed of the molecules, it can be translated to temperature. Thus, since the speed of the molecules decreases, then it can be said that the Temperature of the system decreases.

Secondly, according to Gay-Lussac Law, Pressure is directly proportional to Temperature when the volume is constant. As such, an increase in Pressure sees an increase in Temperature.

Based on what is known above, the statement "<span>In a rigid container, when the speed of the gas molecules decreases, the pressure of the gas also decreases" is a true one.

Thus the answer is TRUE.</span>

Answer:

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

5)        Fe₂O₃(s)   +  3H₂O   ⇒    2Fe(OH)₃ (ac)        Synthesis reaction

6)        2C₄H₁₀(g)  + 13O₂(g)  ⇒   8CO₂ (g)  +  10H₂O   Combustion reaction

7)         2NO₂ (g)  ⇒   2O₂ (g)  +  N₂ (g)                     Decomposition reaction

8)         H₃P (g) +  2O₂ (g)  ⇒    PO (g)  +   3H₂O  Single replacement reaction

Even though water is a liquid, some insects are able to stand on its surface due to water's high surface tension. Unbalanced for
jeka57 [31]
The answer is letter C. hydrogen bonds. Surface tension in water, which makes water form drops and causes the surface to form a curve above the mouth of a container, results from the water molecules being strongly held by H bonds to those water molecules beside and beneath them. The cohesion among water molecules and the adhesion of water to other materials like rock and soil make capillarity possible.

Which has a greater density, a pound of feathers or a pound of gold
artcher [175]

Answer:

Explanation:

Hello!!

Please remember that density=mass/volume.

In this case, we have the same mass for the feathers and the gold (1 pound).

So, if the mass is the same for both we have:

Df*Vg=Dg*Vf    where f means feathers and g means gold.

In this case we see density is inversely related to volume. Both materials have the same mass. So which one have a bigger volume?

For this take a pound of feathers and submerge in a known volume of water. Note the displacement. Do the same for a pound of gold. Whichever has the smaller displacement, has the greater density.

In this case, Gold has the greatest density.
