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.

How many grams are in 10.25 moles of zinc chromate?
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

1859.4 g of ZnCrO₄ in 10.25 moles

Explanation:

First of all, we determine the molecular formula of the compound:

Zinc → Zn²⁺  (cation)

Chromate → CrO₄⁻²  (anion)

Zinc chromate → ZnCrO₄

Molar mass for the compound is:

Molar mass of Zn + Molar mass of Cr + (Molar mass of O) . 4 = 181.41 g/mol

65.41 g/mol + 52 g/mol + 16 g/mol . 4 = 181.41 g/mol

Let's apply this conversion factor: 10.25 mol . 181.41 g/mol = 1859.4 g

What does it mean to standardize the naoh solution why can the molarity of the naoh solution not be determined accurately?
ruslelena [56]
A standard solution is a solution (in this case sodium hydroxide) whose concentration (molarity) is known very precisely. <span>The molarity of the sodium hydroxide solution cannot be determined accurately because s</span>olid sodium hydroxide is highly hygroscopic (absorbs water from the air) and cannot be accurately weighed. Sodium hydroxide form sodium carbonate because it absorbs carbon dioxide from the air.
