Answer:

THE TEMPERATURE OF THE GAS AT 180 mL IS 957 K

Explanation:

This question follows Charles' law of the theory of gases. it states that the volume of a fixed mass of gas varies directly with the absolute temperature provided the pressure remains constant.

Mathematically, V1 /T1 = V2 /T2

V1 = 60 mL = 60 /1000 L = 0.06 L

T1 = 319 K

V2 = 180 mL = 180 /1000 L = 1.80 L

T2 = ?

Making T2 the subject of the formula, we have;

T2 = V2 * T1 / V1

T2 = 0.180 * 319 / 0.06

T2 = 57. 42 / 0.06

T2 = 957 K

So therefore, the temperature of the gas at a new volume of 180 mL is 957 K

The primary difference between a hypothesis and a theory is that a hypothesis is falsifiable but a theory has been proven to be correct. An hypothesis is a proposed explanation put forward on the basis of limited evidence as a commencement point for further investigation, at the end of the investigation the theory may not be accepted if it failed to meet some criteria. A theory is a proven system of ideas used to explain a particular phenomenon.

A gaseous system undergoes a change in temperature and volume. What is the entropy change for a particle in this system if the f

deff fn [24]

Explanation:

Entropy means the amount of randomness present within the molecules of the body of a substance.

Relation between entropy and microstate is as follows.

S = $K_{b} \times ln \Omega$

where, S = entropy

$K_{b}$ = Boltzmann constant

$\Omega$ = number of microstates

This equation only holds good when the system is neither losing or gaining energy. And, in the given situation we assume that the system is neither gaining or losing energy.

Also, let us assume that $\Omega$ = 1, and $\Omega'$ = 0.833
