<span>Chemists considered Martian
Periodic Table as one of the most useful tools they’ve used whose purpose is to
arrange the Martian elements according
to their properties and their atomic number. On this periodic table, it was
found out that the properties seem to vary.
Dmitri Mendeleev, the first to arrange the periodic table according to
atomic mass in a manner that the elements with the same properties were grouped
together. It was Henry Moseley who later arranged the periodic table in accord
to the increasing number of atoms per element. </span>
The volume becomes two. You have to use the equation P1 x V1 = P2 x V2
P is pressure and V is volume.
P1 = 50 P2 = 125
V1 = 5 V2 = v (we don't know what it is)
Then set up the equation:
50 times 5 = 125 times v
250 = 125v
the divide both sides by 125 and isolate v
2 = v
Therefore the volume is decreased to 2.
Also, Boyle's Law explains this too: Volume and pressure are inversely related, This means that when one goes up the other goes down (ie when pressure increases volume decreases and vice versa). Becuase the pressure went up from 50 KPa tp 125 KPa the volume had to decrease.
