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.

An iron chloride compound contains 55.85 grams of iron and 106.5 grams of chlorine. What is the most likely empirical formula fo
mart [117]

Answer:

FeCl_{3}

Explanation:

Moles =\frac {Given\ mass}{Molar\ mass}

mass of Fe = 55.85 g

Molar mass of Fe = 55.85 g/mol

<u>Moles of Fe = 55.85 / 55.85 = 1</u>

mass of Cl = 106.5 g

Molar mass of Cl = 35.5 g/mol

Moles of Cl = 106.5 / 35.5 = 3

Taking the simplest ratio for Fe and Cl as:

1 : 3

The empirical formula is = FeCl_{3}

What is relative isotopic mass
lidiya [134]

Answer:

Relative atomic mass or atomic weight is a dimensionless physical quantity defined as the ratio of the average mass of atoms of a chemical element in a given sample to the atomic mass constant. The atomic mass constant is defined as being 1/12 of the mass of a carbon-12 atom.
