The air particles in the bubble are forced to expand when we pull up on the plunger.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

Pulling creates a large amount of volume , when the volume of the air bubble is increased, air particles inside the bubble tries to accumulate all of the volume by expanding the size of the bubble. Since according to Ideal gas law,

P V = n R T

where P = Pressure of the gas

V = Volume of the gas

n = No. of moles

R = Boltzmann's constant

T = Temperature

We can observe that pressure is inversely proportional to the volume of the gas. Therefore, when we pull up the plunger, the volume of the air bubble is increased and the pressure inside it is decreased.

Answer:

Explanation:

When you are in the laboratory and take a direct sniff of the chemicals you are using, you run the risk of damaging your mucous membranes or your lungs. When it is necessary to smell chemicals in the lab, the proper technique is to cup your hand above the container and waft the air toward your face.

A sample of gas (1.9 mol) is in a flask at 21 °C and 697 mm Hg. The flask is opened and more gas is added to the flask. The new

Artyom0805 [142]

Answer: There are now 2.07 moles of gas in the flask.

Explanation:

$PV=nRT$

P= Pressure of the gas = 697 mmHg = 0.92 atm (760 mmHg= 1 atm)

V= Volume of gas = volume of container = ?

n = number of moles = 1.9

T = Temperature of the gas = 21°C=(21+273)K= 294 K (0°C = 273 K)

R= Value of gas constant = 0.0821 Latm\K mol

$V=\frac{nRT}{P}=\frac{1.9\times 0.0821 \times 294}{0.92}=49.8L$

When more gas is added to the flask. The new pressure is 775 mm Hg and the temperature is now 26 °C, but the volume remains same.Thus again using ideal gas equation to find number of moles.

$PV=nRT$

P= Pressure of the gas = 775 mmHg = 1.02 atm (760 mmHg= 1 atm)

V= Volume of gas = volume of container = 49.8 L

n = number of moles = ?

T = Temperature of the gas = 26°C=(26+273)K= 299 K (0°C = 273 K)

R= Value of gas constant = 0.0821 Latm\K mol

$n=\frac{PV}{RT}=\frac{1.02\times 49.8}{0.0821\times 299}=2.07moles$

Thus the now the container contains 2.07 moles.
