Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The effect on the volume of the gas should be identified if the initial pressure is halved and double the temperature.
Concept Introduction:
Different laws have been put forward to introduce properties of gases:
Boyle’s law:
At fixed temperature, the volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted by the gas.
Charles law: States that volume is directly proportional to temperature when the gas is held
at constant pressure and number of molecules.

General Gas Law: Combining Charles’s law and Boyle’s law we get the General gas law or Combined gas law.

Your Answer: Answer unitsarrow_forwardDetermine and report the pressure of collected hydrogen gas in atmospheres. Report this result to one more digit than allowed by applying the rules of significant figures. (1 atm = 760 mm Hg, an exact conversion factor.) Determine the moles of hydrogen collected by substituting the appropriate quantities into the ideal gas equation and solving. Report this result to one more digit than allowed by applying the rules of significant figures. Notes: the gas temperature is the same as the listed temperature; R = 0.082057 L-atm/mol-K.
