Answer: A cold compress used by  athletes is an endothermic reaction.

Explanation:

A pack of cold compress used by athletes contains water that holds another bag or tube inside it which is filled with ammonium nitrate fertilizer.

So, on hitting the cold compress the tube breaks down due to which fertilizer gets mixed with water. This mixture absorbs the heat when placed on the area of body having pain, strain or bump.

As a result, we tend to feel cold at the affected area of our body.

Thus, we can conclude that a cold compress used by  athletes is an endothermic reaction.

How well can you apply Charles’s law to this sample of gas that experiences changes in pressure and volume? Assume that pressure
Phoenix [80]

Answer:

As temperature increases the volume of given amount of gas increases while pressure and number of moles remain constant.

Explanation:

According to the charle's law,

The volume of given amount of gas is directly proportional to the temperature at constant pressure and number of moles of gas.

Mathematical expression:

V ∝ T

V = KT

V/T = K

When temperature changes from T₁ to T₂ and volume changes from V₁ to V₂.

V₁/T₁ = K        V₂/T₂ = K

or

V₁/T₁  = V₂/T₂

Thus, the ratio of volume and temperature remain constant for constant amount of gas at constant pressure.
