A shipment from Earth to Mars contains a 50 gallon [gal] tank filled with an ideal gas. The molecular weight of the ideal gas is 15.9 grams per mole [g/mol]. NASA tells the astronauts on Mars that the tank and gas combined had an initial total mass of 5 kilograms [kg] and the pressure was 3 atmospheres [atm] before it left the Earth. During the trip, the temperature was kept constant at 20 degrees Celsius [°C]. When it arrives on Mars, the astronauts check the sensors and discover the pressure is 2.2 atmospheres [atm] and the temperature is 20 degrees Celsius [°C]. Based on this information, the astronauts determine that some of the gas leaked during shipment. Determine how much gas leaked from the tank in units of grams [g]. Gravity on Mars = 3.71 meters per second squared[m/s2].

Suppose you have a closed rigid container of air at 20 Celsius on the surface of the Earth. We change the temperature of the container to 48 Celsius, leaving it closed, and read a pressure gauge attached to the container. Initially the reading was 101 KPa (kilopascals, or 1000 N/m2). What is the new reading? Give your answer in KPa.
You happen to come across a piece of metal that has a density of p 8.12 g/cm3 when the temperature is To = 42.5 °C. If the metal is cooled to a temperature of T1 0.00 °C, does the density change? Yes, the density will decrease since the volume changes. Yes, since the metal contracts and the mass is constant, the density will increase. No, because as the volume changes so does the mass. No, density does not depend on temperature. Calculate the density of the piece of metal at this temperature, P1. The coefficient of volume expansion for this piece of metal is B = 7.62 x 10-5 1/°C. -0.0263 Pi = g/cm3 Incorrect
On the surface of a hypothetical planet X, the atmospheric pressure is 4.25 x 106 Pa, and the temperature is 707 K. On the earth's surface the atmospheric pressure is 1.00 x 105 Pa, while the surface temperature can reach 320 K. These data imply that the planet X has a "thicker" atmosphere at its surface than does the earth, which means that the number of molecules per unit volume (N/V) is greater on the surface of planet X than on the earth. Find the ratio (N/V)X/(N/V)Earth.
A fixed amount of a particular ideal gas at 25°C and a pressure of 1.75 ✕ 105 Pa occupies a volume of 2.55 m3. If the volume is increased to 4.2 m3 and the temperature is raised to 26.2°C, what will be the new pressure (in Pa) of the gas?
A balloon is filled with helium gas at atmospheric pressure (1 atm) until its volume is 800 m³. The helium gas is then transferred to cylinders that have a volume of 2.3 m³ at a pres- sure of 13.3 atm. Calculate the number of cylinders used. Assume that the temperature of the helium gas remains constant. (1 atm = 1.013 × 105 Pa).
Twenty-five milliliters of liquid nitrogen (density = 0.807 g/mL) is poured into a cylindrical container with a radius of 10.9 cm and a length of 20.3 cm. The container initially contains only air at a pressure of 760.0 mmHg (atmospheric pressure) and a temperature of 298 K. If the liquid nitrogen completely vaporizes, what is the total force (in lb) on the interior of the container at 298 K ? ΜΕ ΑΣΦ ? F = lb
