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.

Relate the strength of a weak acid to the strength of a conjugate base.
Elenna [48]

Answer:

There is a relationship between the strength of an acid (or base) and the strength of its conjugate base (or conjugate acid): The stronger the acid, the weaker its conjugate base.  The weaker the acid, the stronger its conjugate base.  The stronger the base, the weaker its conjugate acid.

explanation

The strength of an acid and a base is determined by how completely they dissociate in water. Strong acids (like stomach acid) break down or dissociate in water. Weak acids maintains their protons in water.

A person weighed 15 pennies on a balance and recorded the following masses:
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

A)  yes

B) The average mass of 12 pennies should be expressed as

( 3.131 + 3.129 + -------- X12 ) g /  12

where X12 = is the mass of the 12th penny

Explanation:

A) I think the the Bureau of Mint changed the way it made pennies because from the experiment and observation carried out on 15 different pennies it can be seen that they had different weights and this difference is associated with the period/time of production of the different pennies,

B ) The average mass of any object should be expressed in the si unit of mass and not having ($) sign attached to the value instead it should be expressed in grams or kilograms (s.i unit of mass )

The average mass of 12 pennies should be expressed as

( 3.131 + 3.129 + -------- X12 ) g /  12

where X12 = is the mass of the 12th penny

How many electrons will metals generally have in their outer shell
Goshia [24]

Answer:

1 - 3

Explanation:

- Look to see where metals are on the periodic table then look at what group they are in. The group tells you the number of valence electrons. Ex. 1A has one valence electron.

- Hope this helped! If you need a further explanation please let me know.
