10. When the pressure on a gas inetcases three times, by how much will the volume incrcase or decrease?

1 answer:

4 0

Answer:The answer to this question comes from experiments done by the scientist Robert Boyle in an effort to improve air pumps. In the 1600's, Boyle measured the volumes of gases at different pressures. Boyle found that when the pressure of gas at a constant temperature is increased, the volume of the gas decreases. when the pressure of gas is decreased, the volume increases. this relationship between pressure and volume is called Boyle's law.

Explanation: So, at constant temperature, the answer to your answer is: the volume decreases in the same ratio as the ratio of pressure increases.

BUT, in general, there is not a single answer to your question. It depend by the context.

For example, if you put the gas in a rigid steel tank (volume is constant), you can heat the gas, so provoking a pressure increase. But you won't get any change in volume.

Or, if you heat the gas in a partially elastic vessel (as a tire or a soccer ball) you will get both an increase of volume AND an increase of pressure.

FINALLY if you inflate a bubblegum ball, the volume will be increased without any change in pressure and temperature, because you have increased the NUMBER of molecules in the balloon.

There are many other ways to change volume and pressure of a gas that are different from the Boyle experiment.

If you are given an ideal gas with pressure (P) = 259,392.00 Pa and temperature (T) = 2.00 oC of 1 mole Argon gas in a volume of

Answer:

R = 0.064 dm³ atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

Explanation:

Answer:

Explanation:

Data Given:

volume of gas V = 8.8 dm³

no. of mole of gas (n) = 1 mole

Pressure P = 259,392.00 Pa

Convert Pascal (Pa) to atm (atmospheric pressure)

101,325 Pascals = 1 atm

So,

259,392.00 Pa = 2 atm

Then Pressure (P) = 2 atm

Temperature T = 2.00 °C

change the temperature from °C to K

As to convert °C to K the below formula used

0°C + 273.15 = 273.15K

So, for 2 °C

2°C + 273.15 = 275.15 K

So,

Temperature T = 275.15 K

ideal gas constant = ?

formula used for Ideal gases

PV = nRT

as we have to find R of the gas:

we will rearrange the ideal gas equation as below:

R = PV / nT ........................................... (1)

Put value in equation (1)

R = 2atm x 8.8 dm³ / 1 mole x 275.15 K

R = 17.6 atm. dm³ / 275.15 mol. K

R = 0.064 dm³ atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

So the value of R is 0.064 dm³ atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

and the unit of R (ideal gas constant) is dm³ atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

how many grams of silver medal could be recovered from a reaction of 50 g silver nitrate and copper metal

Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Answer is: mass of copper is 127 grams.

Balanced chemical reaction: Cu(s) + 2AgNO₃(aq) → Cu(NO₃)₂(aq) + 2Ag(s).

m(Ag) = 432 g.

n(Ag) = m(Ag) ÷ M(Ag).

n(Ag) = 432 g ÷ 108 g/mol.

n(Ag) = 4 mol.

From chemical reaction: n(Ag) : n(Cu) = 2 : 1.

n(Cu) = 4 mol ÷ 2 = 2 mol.

m(Cu) = n(Cu) · M(Cu).

m(Cu) = 2 mol · 63.5 g/mol.

m(Cu) = 127 g

Ammonia gas combines with excess oxygen gas to produce nitric oxide and water. How many grams of ammonia gas would have to react

Sedbober [7]

Answer:

11.6g of NH₃(g) have to react

Explanation:

For the reaction:

4 NH₃(g) + 5 O₂(g) → 4 NO(g) + 6 H₂O(g) ΔH = -905kJ

4 moles of ammonia produce 905kJ

Thus, if you want to produce 154kJ of energy you need:

154kJ × (4 mol NH₃ / 905kJ) = 0.681moles of NH₃. In mass -Molar mass ammonia is 17.031g/mol-

0.681mol NH₃ × (17.031g / mol) = 11.6g of NH₃(g) have to react

It is winter where jenna lives. Its been snowing all day, but now the snow has changed to sleet and then to freezing rain. What

Vladimir79 [104]

Hi!

Answer:

The change in temperature.

Explanation:

Snow forms at 0 °C, when water vapor converts directly into solid ice crystals. Sleet forms when raindrops fall through a layer of air colder than 0 °C. This means that from the time it was snowing to the time it started sleeting the air has gotten warmer but one layer of air stayed cold, hence the formation of sleet. Freezing rain is rain that freezes when it hits a cold surface. This means that from the time it was sleeting to the time there was freezing rain the air had completely warmed and is now above 0 °C but the ground and all other surfaces are still cold.

I hope this helps, as this happens all the time where I live! :)

What is the term for the smallest bit into which a chemical substance can be divided and still have the properties of that subst

ziro4ka [17]

Answer:

Molecule

Explanation:

molecule of the substance. You can break the molecule down further, into the atoms that make it up, but those don't have the properties of the original 'compound'.

Here's an example:

-- Sodium is a soft, slippery metal, that explodes when water touches it.

-- Chlorine is a poisonous green gas.

When an atom of Sodium and an atom of Chlorine combine, they make one molecule of a substance called "Sodium Chloride". That's SALT ! It isn't green, it isn't a gas, it isn't poisonous, it isn't soft and slippery, and it doesn't explode when water touches it.
