What happens when the pressure of a gas is decreased?

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.

What does this mean: A saturated solution may be quite dilute because some substances have a very low solubility. I don't unders
atroni [7]

Answer:

Here's how I would explain it.

Explanation:

Think of it this way.

When you mix solutions of silver nitrate and sodium chloride, you get an immediate precipitate of silver chloride. The equation is

Ag⁺(aq) + Cl⁻(aq) ⟶ AgCl(s)

Now, take some AgCl and stir it vigorously with water.

You won't see much happening, because the AgCl is has such a low solubility. Not much of it will go into solution. And yet, a small amount of it does dissolve until the solution is saturated.

The concentration of AgCl in the saturated solution is

about 0.000 01 mol·L⁻¹.

I hope you will agree that this is a dilute solution even though it is saturated with AgCl.

If 842 grams of sodium hydroxide reacts with 750.0 grams of aluminum, how many grams of aluminum hydroxide should theoretically
Phantasy [73]

548.55 grams of aluminum hydroxide should theoretically form.

Explanation:

Balanced equation for the reaction:

3 NaOH + Al ⇒ Al(OH)3 +3 Na

DATA GIVEN:

mass of NaOH = 842 grams, atomic mass =39.9 grams/mole

mass of Al = 750 grams, atomic mass = 26.9 grams/mole

aluminum hydroxide theoretical yield = ?

Moles of NaOH reacted

number of moles = \frac{mass}{atomic mass of 1 mole}

putting the values in the equation

NaOH = \frac{842}{39.9}

           = 21.1 MOLES OF NaOH

Al = \frac{750}{26.9}

   = 27.8 moles

from the equation

 from 3 moles of NaOH 1 mole of Al(OH)3 is produced

21.1 moles of NaOH will react to give x moles of Al(OH)3

\frac{1}{3} = \frac{x}{21.1}

7.03 moles of Al(OH)3 is formed.

and

1 mole of Al(OH)3 is formed from 1 mole of Al in the reaction

so, 27.8 Moles will react to give give 27.8 moles of Al(OH)3 limiting reagent of the given reaction is NaOH

mass of Al(OH)3 =7.03 x 78 (atomic mass of Al(OH)3)

          = 548.55 grams

theoretical  yield from the given data is 548.55 grams

What problems could arise if scientists use different units to measure height
Shkiper50 [21]

Scientists can measure the height in different units but problem could arise when they compare all the measurements. That is the reason there is standard units for measurements.

<span>There may be error arises when an American scientist is measuring the height of an object in inches and other Australian scientist is measuring the height of same object in meters. Their data cannot be compared because they are using different units to measure height.</span>
