More collisions mean more force, so the pressure will<span> increase. When the volume </span>decreases<span>, the </span>pressure<span> increases. This shows that the </span>pressure of a gas<span> is inversely proportional to its volume. ... It means that for a </span>gas<span> at a constant temperature, </span>pressure<span> × volume is also constant</span>

The combined gas law states that the pressure of a gas is inversely related to the volume and directly related to the temperature. If temperature is held constant, the equation is reduced to Boyle’s law. Therefore, if you decrease the pressure of a fixed amount of gas, it’s volume will increase.

The empirical formula of styrene is CH; its molar mass is 104.1 g/mol. What is the molecular formula of styrene?
Natalija [7]
You got the answer correct. If you would double check
given:C (12 g/mol) H (1 g/mol). 

12(8) + 1(8) = 104 g/mol

and for C2H4
12(2)+1(4) = 28g/mol

Also, chemical formula of styrene is<span> C6H5CH=CH2.</span>

Two hydraulic cylinders are connected. If the diameter of one piston is twice the other, the how does the pressure experienced b
Aneli [31]

Answer:

They experience the same pressure

Explanation:

To answer this question, we recall Pascal's, Law Pascal's law states that  an increase in pressure at a point in a confined cylinder containing a fluid, there is also an equal increase at all other points in that cylinder.

According to Pascal's law the pressure if the pressure expereienced by the larger diameter piston increases, the pressure experienced by the smaller diameter piston also increases by the same amount

However considering that pressure = Force/area F1/A1 =F2/A2

thus where A1 = πD²÷4 and A2 = πD²÷ 16 we have

we have F1×4/πD² = F2×16/πD² or F1 = 4× F2

They experience the same pressure but the larger cylinder delivers four times the force transmitted from he outside to the smaller cylinder
