- Consider these four gas samples, all at the same temperature. The larger boxes have twice the volume of the smaller boxes. Rank the gas samples with respect to: (a) pressure, (b) density, (c) average kinetic energy, and (d) average molecular speed. (Green spheres are He; violet spheres are Ne.)arrow_forwardcertain flexible weather balloon contains helium gas at a volume of 855L. Initially, the balloon is at sea level where the temperature is 25 °C and the barometric pressure is 730torr. The balloon men rises to an altitude of 6000 ft, where the pressure is 605torr and the temperature is 15C. What is the change in volume of the balloon as it ascends from sea level to 6000ft?arrow_forwardYou are given two flasks of equal volume. Flask A contains H2 at 0 C and 1 atm pressure. Flask B contains CO2 gas at 0 C and 2 atm pressure. Compare these two samples with respect to each of these properties.
