Question
Chapter 11.1, Problem 5PP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: To identify the statement describing the pressure of gas.
Concept introduction: As per definition, the pressure is a force exerted by the substance on per unit area of the other substance. For example, when we inflate balloon by blowing air, the molecules of air inside the balloon put pressure on the walls of balloon, and caused expansion.
Given: Which of the following statement(s) describes the pressure of a gas?
a. the force of the gas particles on the walls of the container
b. the number of gas particles in a container
c. 4.5 L of helium gas
d. 750 Torr
e. 28.8 lb/in.2
