Warmer atoms expand. There is also more movement. This is also explained when putting it into terms with solid vs. gas. in a solid, the atoms vibrate, but they can't move very far because there is not a lot of space between them. In a gas, on the other hand, the atoms are spread apart, and they move very fast. Putting it into context with water, the steam (gas) version is hot, and the ice cube (solid) version is cold.

Warmer atoms expand. You can think of it like a warm summer day you don't want to be next to your friends because it's hot out. On a cold day you try to stay closer to your friends because you produce body heat and keep each other War

A helium-filled balloon has a volume of 2.48 L and a pressure of 150 kPa. The volume of the balloon increases to 2.98 L after yo
Tema [17]

Answer:

THE NEW PRESSURE OF THE HELIUM GAS AT 2.98 L VOLUME IS 124.8 kPa.

AT AN INCREASE ALTITUDE, THERE IS A LOWER PRESSURE ENVIRONMENT AND THE HELIUM GAS PRESSURE DECREASES AND HENCE AN INCREASE IN VOLUME.

Explanation:

The question above follows Boyle's law of the gas law as the temperature is kept constant.

Boyle's law states that the pressure of a fixed mass of gas is inversely proportional to the volume, provided the temperature remains constant.

Mathematically, P1 V1 = P2 V2

P1 = 150 kPa = 150 *10^3 Pa

V1 = 2.48 L

V2 = 2.98 L

P2 = ?

Rearranging the equation, we obtain;

P2 = P1 V1 / V2

P2 = 150 kPa * 2.48 / 2.98

P2 = 372 *10 ^3 / 2.98

P2 = 124.8 kPa.

The new pressure of the gas when at a height which increases the volume of the helium gas to 2.98 L is 124.8 kPa.

Give an example of how natural selection could benefit a species. Justify your response in two or more complete sentences.
PolarNik [594]
Natural selection can benefit a species in many ways. One way natural selection benefits a species is by helping a species adapt to constant changing environments and biomes. natural selection can also benefit a species by dying of the weaker links of a species and adapting the mutated species. hope this helped! :)
