(a)
Interpretation:
The volume of the balloon that is filled with helium at sea level is to be determined when it floats at higher altitude.
Concept Introduction:
According to Boyle's law, the pressure of sample is inversely proportional to the volume of the sample at constant temperature and at constant mol of gas.
The volume is defined as the quantity of the three dimensional space which is occupied by the
(b)
Interpretation:
The volume of the balloon that is filled with helium at sea level is to be determined when it is placed in bath of the liquid nitrogen at
Concept Introduction:
According to Charles law, volume of gas is directly proportional to the temperature at constant pressure and at constant mol of gas.
The volume is defined as the quantity of the three dimensional space which is occupied by the liquid, solid and gas.
(c)
Interpretation:
The volume of the balloon that is filled with helium at sea level is to be determined when it is placed inside a hyperbaric chamber at pressure of 2.5 atm.
Concept Introduction:
According to Boyle's law, the pressure of sample of gas is inversely proportional to the volume of the sample of the gas.
The volume is defined as the quantity of the three dimensional space which is occupied by the liquid, solid and gas.
(d)
Interpretation:
The volume of the balloon that is filled with helium at sea level is to be determined when it is heated inside the microwave.
Concept Introduction:
According to Charles law, volume of gas is directly proportional to the temperature at constant pressure and at constant mol of gas.

- If equal masses of O2 and N2 are placed in separate containers of equal volume at the same temperature, which of the following statements is true? If false, explain why it is false. (a) The pressure in the flask containing N2 is greater than that in the flask containing O2. (b) There are more molecules in the flask containing O2 than in the flask containing N2.arrow_forwardAnswer the following questions: (a) If XX behaved as an ideal gas, what would its graph of Z vs. P look like? (b) For most of this chapter, we performed calculations treating gases as ideal. Was this justified? (c) What is the effect of the volume of gas molecules on Z? Under what conditions is this effect small? When is it large? Explain using an appropriate diagram. (d) What is the effect of intermolecular attractions on the value of Z? Under what conditions is this effect small? When is it large? Explain using an appropriate diagram. (e) In general, under what temperature conditions would you expect Z to have the largest deviations from the Z for an ideal gas?arrow_forwardA study of climbers who reached the summit of Mount Everest without supplemental oxygen showed that the partial pressures of O2 and CO2 in their lungs were 35 mm Mg and 7.5 mm Hg, respectively. The barometric pressure at the summit was 253 mm Hg. Assume the lung gases are saturated with moisture at a body temperature of 37 C [which means the partial pressure of water vapor in the lungs is P(H2O) = 47.1 mm Hg]. If you assume the lung gases consist of only O2, N2, CO2, and H2O, what is the partial pressure of N2?arrow_forward
