Therefore, volume decreases as pressure increases. Hence, option A is incorrect.
The correct statement is, the volume will decrease because temperature and pressure of the gas increase.
(b)
Interpretation:
The correct observation is to identified.
(b)
Explanation of Solution
Substitute
Therefore, option B is incorrect, since the initial volume of the gas is
The correct statement is, the initial volume is
(c)
Interpretation:
The correct observation is to identified.
(c)
Explanation of Solution
Substitute
Therefore, volume decreases as temperature increase. So, option C is incorrect.
The correct statement is the volume is expected to decrease because the pressure increases by a larger factor than temperature.
(d)
Interpretation:
The correct observation is to identified.
(d)
Explanation of Solution
Substitute
So, the final volume is

INTRODUCTION TO CHEMISTRY-ACCESS
- The oxides of Group 2A metals (symbolized by M here) react with carbon dioxide according to the following reaction: MO(s)+CO2(g)MCO3(s) A 2.85-g sample containing only MgO and CuO is placed in a 3.00-L container. The container is filled with CO2 to a pressure of 740. torr at 20.C. After the reaction has gone to completion, the pressure inside the flask is 390. torr at 20.C. What is the mass percent of MgO in the mixture? Assume that only the MgO reacts with CO2.arrow_forwardA 15.0L tank is filled with H2 to a pressure of 2.00 l02tm. How many balloons (each 2.00 L) can be inflated to a pressure of 1.00 atm from the tank? Assume that there is no temperature change and that the tank cannot be emptied below 1.00 atm pressure.arrow_forward99 Pure gaseous nitrogen dioxide (NO2) cannot be obtained, because NO2dimerizes, or combines with itself, to produce a mixture of NO2 and N2O4. A particular mixture of NO2, and N2O4 has a density of 2.39 g/L at 50°C and 745 torr. What is the partial pressure of NO2 in this mixture?arrow_forward
- A chemist weighed out 5.14 g of a mixture containing unknown amounts of BaO(s) and CaO(s) and placed the sample in a 1.50-L flask containing CO2(g) at 30.0C and 750. torr. After the reaction to form BaCO3(s) and CaCO3(s) was completed, the pressure of CO2(g) remaining was 230. torr. Calculate the mass percentages of CaO(s) and BaO(s) in the mixture.arrow_forwardA collapsed balloon is filled with He to a volume of 12.5 L at a pressure of 1.00 atm. Oxygen, O2, is then added so that the final volume of the balloon is 26 L with a total pressure of 1.00 atm. The temperature, which remains constant throughout, is 21.5 C. (a) What mass of He does the balloon contain? (b) What is the final partial pressure of He in the balloon? (c) What is the partial pressure of O2 in the balloon? (d) What is the mole fraction of each gas?arrow_forwardTwo identical He-filled balloons, each with a volume of 20 L, are allowed to rise into the atmosphere. One rises to an altitude of 3000 m while the other rises to 6000 m. a Assuming that the balloons are at the same temperature, which balloon has the greater volume? b What information would you need in order to calculate the volume of each of the balloons at their respective heights?arrow_forward
