Textbook Question
Chapter 13.2, Problem 2cT
Two students are discussing process 1:
| Student 1: | The volume of the gas decreases, but the pressure increase. Therefore, by the |
| Student 2: | “But I know the temperature goes up. The volume is less, and therefore the particles collide more often with one another.” |
Neither student is correct. Find the flaws in the reasoning of each student. Explain.

Using the combined gas law, calculate the following. Also, what other law could you have used to solve this problem? Use details to support your answer.Some teenagers think that their parents are “full of hot air.” Your mom inhales 4 liters of air with a temperature of 20 degrees Celsius. Since you think she is full of hot air, this temperature must increase while the air is in her lungs. If this air heats up to 37 degrees Celsius, what is the new volume of the gas? (Note that 37 degrees Celsius is 98.6 degrees Fahrenheit, which is normal body temperature.) Remember to pay close attention to the units of temperature before beginning your calculations. Show all work
Part d) and f), please. The other answers are attached for your reference.
Part (d) In the adiabatic heating, the temperature of the gas is doubled. Write an expression for the volume V3 after this step in terms of V1.
V3=? (in terms of V1)
Part (f) Write an expression for the volume V4 in terms of V1.
V4=? (in terms of V1)
