Three liters of hydrogen at -20°? are allowed to warm to a room temperature of 27°?. What is the Volume at room temperature if the pressure remains constant?
Atmospheric pressure on Earth at its surface is 101 KPa (101 kilopascals or 101,000 N/m2). Which of these statements is true. When we reduce the pressure in the container while keeping the temperature constant, the number of atoms per m3 must stay constant. At 1 atmosphere, the number of atoms/m3 in air at room temperature is about 109, one billion atoms. If we pump out the gas in a closed container leaving only 1 billionth of the original gas there will be fewer than 100 atoms per m3 in the container. If we pump out the gas in a closed container leaving only 1 billionth of the original gas there will still be more than 1010 (10 billion) atoms per cm3 in the container.
How do different gas laws explain everyday situations that involve gases?

There are lots of examples of ideal gases in the universe, and they exist in many different conditions. In this problem we will examine what the temperature of these various phenomena are. a. Give an expression for the temperature of an ideal gas in terms of pressure P, particle density per unit volume ρ, and fundamental constants. b. Near the surface of Venus, its atmosphere has a pressure fv= 95 times the pressure of Earth's atmosphere, and a particle density of around ρv = 1.1 × 1027 m-3. What is the temperature of Venus' atmosphere (in C) near the surface? c. The Orion nebula is one of the brightest diffuse nebulae in the sky (look for it in the winter, just below the three bright stars in Orion's belt). It is a very complicated mess of gas, dust, young star systems, and brown dwarfs, but let's estimate its temperature if we assume it is a uniform ideal gas. Assume it is a sphere of radius r = 4.7 × 1015 m (around 6 light years) with a total mass 4000 times the mass of the…
