Textbook Question
Chapter 1, Problem 19E
A student prepares several samples of the same gas and measures their mass and volume. The results are tabulated as follows. Formulate a tentative law from the measurements.
| Mass of Gas (in g) | Volume of Gas (in L) |
| 22.5 | 1.60 |
| 35.8 | 2.55 |
| 70.2 | 5.00 |
| 98.5 | 7.01 |

The noble gas argon was discovered by Sir Walter Ramsay and John William Strutt in England in 1895. Through this discovery, they made highly accurate measurements of gas densities. Their experimentally determined densities are:
Oxygen 1.42952 g/L
Nitrogen 1.25718 g/L
Air 1.29327 g/L
1) To determine the density of atmospheric nitrogen, Strutt removed the oxygen, water, carbon dioxide, and argon from air and then filled an evacuated glass tube with the remaining gas. He determined that a mass of 0.20389 g of nitrogen has a density of 1.25718 g/L under standard conditions of temperature and pressure. What is the volume of the glass tube in cm3?

A student finds that a 0.510-g sample of Ne(g) occupies 495 mL. What volume (mL) would the Ne(g) occupy, if the student adds 0.250 g Ne at constant temperature and pressure?
One of the gas laws states that the volume of a gas is proportional to its temperature. What final volume would you predict using this law alone if the water vapor changed from 100 degrees * C to 25 °C? The initial volume of the can was 12 oz.

He flew the balloon for fifteen miles and stayed in the air for a total flight time of 45 minutes. The balloon was made of silk coated with a thin layer of natural rubber and had a diameter of 27 feet. He generated the hydrogen gas needed to lift the balloon by mixing a large amount of iron with aqueous sulfuric acid.
