Explanation:
The mass of an object is a measure of the object's inertial property, or the amount of matter it contains. The weight of an object is a measure of the force exerted on the object by gravity, or the force needed to support it. The pull of gravity on the earth gives an object a downward acceleration of about 9.8 m/s2.
To solve the problem, we assume the sample to be ideal. Then, we use the ideal gas equation which is expressed as PV = nRT. From the first condition of the nitrogen gas sample, we calculate the number of moles.
n = PV / RT
n = (98.7x 10^3 Pa x 0.01 m^3) / (8.314 Pa m^3/ mol K) x 298.15 K
n = 0.40 mol N2
At the second condition, the number of moles stays the same however pressure and temperature was changed. So, the new volume is calculated as follows:
V = nRT / P
V = 0.40 x 8.314 x 293.15 / 102.7 x 10^3
V = 9.49 x 10^-3 m^3 or 9.49 L
Instability of an atoms nucleus can result from an excess of either neutrons or protons . So neutrons and protons .
