Answer:

The new pressure is 40 atm

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Volume of the gas = 20.0 L

Pressure of the gas = 10.0 atm

The volume decreases to 5.0 L

Step 2: Calculate the new pressure

P1*V1 = P2*V2

⇒with P1 = the initial pressure of the gas = 10.0 atm

⇒with V1 = the initial volume of the gas = 20.0 L

⇒with P2 = the new pressure = TO BE DETERMINED

⇒with V2 = the decreased volume = 5.0 L

10.0 atm * 20.0 L = P2 * 5.0 L

P2 = 200 / 5.0

P2 = 40 atm

Since the volume is 4x smaller, the pressure is 4x more

The new pressure is 40 atm

How does the total volume of gas particles compare to the volume of the space between gas particles?
saw5 [17]
Answer:
             There is more space between gas particles than the size of the particles.

Explanation:
                   This scenario can be understand by taking a very simple example. As we know that 1 mole of any gas at standard temperature and pressure occupy 22.4 liters of volume. Lets take Hydrogen gas and Oxygen gas, 1 mole of each gas will occupy same volume. Why it is so? Why same volume although Oxygen is 16 times more heavier? This is because the space between gas molecules is very large. Approximately the distance between gas molecules is 300 times greater than their own diameter from its neighbor molecules.
