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.

Explanation of Solution
Substitute
So, the final volume is

- Ammonia gas is synthesized by combining hydrogen and nitrogen: 3 H2(g) + N2(g) 2 NH3(g) (a) If you want to produce 562 g of NH3, what volume of H2 gas, at 56 C and 745 mm Hg, is required? (b) Nitrogen for this reaction will be obtained from air. What volume of air, measured at 29 C and 745 mm Hg pressure, will be required to provide the nitrogen needed to produce 562 g of NH3? Assume the sample of air contains 78.1 mole % N2.arrow_forwardA balloon filled with helium gas is found to take 6 hours to deflate to 50% of its original volume. How long will it take for an identical balloon filled with the same volume of hydrogen gas (instead of helium) to decrease its volume by 50%?arrow_forwardGraphs showing the behavior of several different gases follow. Which of these gases exhibit behavior significantly different from that expected for ideal gases?arrow_forward
- The distribution of molecular velocities in a sample of helium is shown in Figure 9.34. If the sample is cooled, will the distribution of velocities look more like that of H2 or of H2O? Explain your answer.arrow_forward52 If tetraborane, B4H10, is treated with pure oxygen, it burns to give B2O3 and H2O: 2B4H10(s)+11O2(g)4B2O3(s)+10H2O(g) If a 0.050-g sample of tetraborane burns completely in O2, what will be the pressure of the gaseous water in a 4.25-L flask at 30.0 C?arrow_forward
