Therefore, volume decreases as pressure increases. Hence, option A is incorrect.
The correct statement is, the volume will decrease because temperature and pressure of the gas increase.
(b)
Interpretation:
The correct observation is to identified.
(b)
Explanation of Solution
Substitute
Therefore, option B is incorrect, since the initial volume of the gas is
The correct statement is, the initial volume is
(c)
Interpretation:
The correct observation is to identified.
(c)
Explanation of Solution
Substitute
Therefore, volume decreases as temperature increase. So, option C is incorrect.
The correct statement is the volume is expected to decrease because the pressure increases by a larger factor than temperature.
(d)
Interpretation:
The correct observation is to identified.

- A balloon filled with helium gas is found to take 6 hours to deflate to 50% of its original volume. How long will it take for an identical balloon filled with the same volume of hydrogen gas (instead of helium) to decrease its volume by 50%?arrow_forwardGraphs showing the behavior of several different gases follow. Which of these gases exhibit behavior significantly different from that expected for ideal gases?arrow_forwardThe distribution of molecular velocities in a sample of helium is shown in Figure 9.34. If the sample is cooled, will the distribution of velocities look more like that of H2 or of H2O? Explain your answer.arrow_forward
- 52 If tetraborane, B4H10, is treated with pure oxygen, it burns to give B2O3 and H2O: 2B4H10(s)+11O2(g)4B2O3(s)+10H2O(g) If a 0.050-g sample of tetraborane burns completely in O2, what will be the pressure of the gaseous water in a 4.25-L flask at 30.0 C?arrow_forwardA chemist vaporized a liquid compound and determined its density. If the density of the vapor at 90C and 753 mmHg is 1.585 g/L, what is the molecular weight of the compound?arrow_forwardA 36.0—L cylinder of a gas used for calibration of blood gas analyzers in medical laboratories contains 350 g CO2, 805 g 02, and 4,880 g N2. At 25 degrees C. what is the pressure in the cylinder in atmospheres?arrow_forward
- A 15.0L tank is filled with H2 to a pressure of 2.00 l02tm. How many balloons (each 2.00 L) can be inflated to a pressure of 1.00 atm from the tank? Assume that there is no temperature change and that the tank cannot be emptied below 1.00 atm pressure.arrow_forwardA sample of a smoke stack emission was collected into a 1.25-L tank at 752 mm Hg and analyzed. The analysis showed 92% CO2, 3.6% NO, 1.2% SO2, and 4.1% H2O by mass. What is the partial pressure exerted by each gas?arrow_forwardSulfur trioxide, SO3, is produced in enormous quantities each year for use in the synthesis of sulfuric acid. S(s)+O2(g)SO2(g)2SO2(g)+O2(g)2SO3(g) What volume of O2(g) at 350.C and a pressure of 5.25 atm is needed to completely convert 5.00 g sulfur to sulfur trioxide?arrow_forward
