Concept explainers
Interpretation: The new volume of a container holding a gas is to be calculated when pressure is changed is to be calculated.
Concept introduction: Boyle’s law states that the volume of a fixed amount of a gas is directly proportional to its pressure, at constant temperature and fixed amount of the gas.
Charles’ law states that the volume of a fixed amount of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature, keeping the pressure of the gas constant.
Combining Boyle’s law and Charles’ law gives the combined

- Helium gas, He, at 22C and 1.00 atm occupied a vessel whose volume was 2.54 L. What volume would this gas occupy if it were cooled to liquid-nitrogen temperature (197C)?arrow_forwardAt what temperature will a molecule of uranium hexafluoride, the densest gas known, have the same average speed as a molecule of the lightest gas, hydrogen, at 37C?arrow_forwardFor scuba dives below 150 ft, helium is often used to replace nitrogen in the scuba tank. If 15.2 g of He(g) and 30.6 g of O2(g) are added to a previously evacuated 5.00 L tank at 22 C, calculate the partial pressure of each gas present as well as the total pressure in the tank.arrow_forward
- Hyperbaric oxygen therapy is used to treat patients with carbon monoxide poisoning as well as to treat divers with the bends. In hyperbaric oxygen therapy, a patient is placed inside a 7.0-ft cylinder with a 3.0-ft diameter, which is then filled with oxygen gas to a total pressure of 2.50 atm. Assuming the patient takes up 32.0% of the chambers volume , what volume of O2(g) from a gas cylinder at 25 C and 95 atm is required to fill the chamber to a total pressure of 2.50 atm at 25 C7 Assume the hyperbaric chamber initially contains air at 1.00 atm before O2(g) is added.arrow_forwardA certain flexible weather balloon contains helium gas at a volume of 855 L. Initially, the balloon is at sea level where the temperature is 25C and the barometric pressure is 730 torr. The balloon then rises to an altitude of 6000 ft, where the pressure is 605 torr and the temperature is 15C. What is the change in volume of the balloon as it ascends from sea level to 6000 ft?arrow_forward5-107 If 60.0 g of NH3 occupies 35.1 L under a pressure of 77.2 in. Hg, what is the temperature of the gas, in °C?arrow_forward
- If 1 cubic foot-28.3 L-of air at common room conditions of 230C and 0.985 bar is adjusted to STP, what does the volume become?arrow_forward5.27 A newly discovered gas has a density of 2.39 g/L at 23.0°C and 715 mm Hg. What is the molar mass of the gas?arrow_forwardWhile resting, the average 70-kg human male consumes 14 L of pure O2 per hour at 25 C and 100 kPa. How many moles of 02 are consumed by a 70 kg man while resting for 1.0 h?arrow_forward
