Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The apparatus has to be redrawn if the temperature is increased from
Concept introduction:
Charles’s law: States that volume is directly proportional to temperature when the gas is held at constant pressure and number of molecules.
(b)
Interpretation:
The apparatus has to be redrawn if the pressure is increased from
Concept introduction:
Boyle’s law:
At fixed temperature, the volume of a fixed amount of gas is inversely proportional to the pressure exerted by the gas.
(c)
Interpretation:
The apparatus has to be redrawn if the temperature is decreased from
Concept introduction:
General Gas Law:
Combining Charles’s law and Boyle’s law we get the General gas law or combined gas law.

- 5.19 A sample of CO2 gas has a pressure of 56.5 mm Hg in a 125-mL flask. The sample is transferred to a new flask, where it has a pressure of 62.3 mm Hg at the same temperature. What is the volume of the new flask?arrow_forwardA typical barometric pressure in Redding. California, is about 750 mm Hg. Calculate this pressure in atm and kPa.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_forward
