Concept explainers
(a)
To explain:
The balloon shape which is filled with helium gas, which is lighter than air. The changes in the volume of the balloon in situations like (a) the balloon floats to a higher pressure where the outside pressure is lower, but the temperature is the same.
Introduction:
(b)
To explain:
Refer to the diagram given in the question, the balloon shape which is filled with helium gas, which is lighter than air. The change in the volume of the balloon in situations like (b) The balloon is placed in a hyperbaric chamber where the pressure is increased but the temperature remains the same.
Introduction:
Gas laws are defined as Gay-Lussac laws, Boyles’s law, Charles’s law and combined gas laws which are dependent upon the physical parameters of the gases like temperature, pressure, volume and number of moles of gases.
(c)
To explain:
The balloon shape which is filled with helium gas, which is lighter than air. The changes in the volume of the balloon in situations like (c) the temperature of the balloon changes from

(d)
To explain:
The balloon shape which is filled with helium gas, which is lighter than air. The changes in the volume of the balloon in situations like (d) The balloon is warmed and then cooled to its initial temperature and the pressure remains the same.

- How would the graph in Figure 9.12 change if the number of moles of gas in the sample used to determine the curve were doubled?arrow_forward2. The volume of a gas sample is 235 mL at a temperature of 25 ℃. At what temperature would that same gas sample have a volume of 310. mL, if the pressure of the gas sample is held constant? −47.0 ℃ 69.4 ℃ 33.1 ℃ 120.℃arrow_forwardExplain how the volume of the bubbles exhausted by a scuba diver (Figure 9.16) change as they rise to the surface, assuming that they remain intact.arrow_forward
- A halothane-oxygen mixture (C2HBrCIF3 + O2) can be used as an anesthetic. A tank containing such a mixture has the following partial pressures: P (halothane) = 170 mm Hg and P (O2) = 570 mm Hg. (a) What is the ratio of the number of moles of halothane to the number of moles of O2? (b) If the tank contains 160 g of O2, what mass of C2HBrCIF3 is present?arrow_forward93 The complete combustion of octane can be used as a model for the burning of gasoline: 2C8H18+25O216CO2+18H2O Assuming that this equation provides a reasonable model of the actual combustion process, what volume of air at 1.0 atm and 25°C must be taken into an engine to burn 1 gallon of gasoline? (The partial pressure of oxygen in air is 0.21 atm and the density of liquid octane is 0.70 g/mL.)arrow_forwardThe atmosphere in a sealed diving bell contained oxygen and helium. If the gas mixture has 0.200 atm of oxygen and a total pressure of 3.00 atm, calculate the mass of helium in 10.0 L of the gas mixture at 40C.arrow_forward
- A 39.6-mL sample of gas is trapped in a syringe and heated from 27 C to 127 C. What is the new volume (in mL) in the syringe if the pressure is constant?arrow_forwardCalculate the molar mass of a gas if a 0.165-g sample at 1.22 atm occupies a volume of 34.8 mL at 50 C.arrow_forwardMany nitrate salts can be decomposed by heating. For example, blue, anhydrous copper(II) nitrate produces the gases nitrogen dioxide and oxygen when heated. In the laboratory, you find that a sample of this salt produced a 0.195-g mixture of gaseous NO2 and O2 with a total pressure of 725 mm Hg at 35 C in a 125-mL flask (and black, solid CuO was left as a residue). What is the average molar mass of the gas mixture? What are the mole fractions of NO2 and O2 in the mixture? What amount of each gas b in the mixture? Do these amounts reflect the relative amounts of NO2 and O2 expected based on the balanced equation? Is it possible that the fact that some NO2 molecules combine to give N2O4 plays a role? Heating copper(II) nitrate produces nitrogen dioxide and oxygen gas and leaves a residue of copper(ll) oxide.arrow_forward
