- If equal masses of O2 and N2 are placed in separate containers of equal volume at the same temperature, which of the following statements is true? If false, explain why it is false. (a) The pressure in the flask containing N2 is greater than that in the flask containing O2. (b) There are more molecules in the flask containing O2 than in the flask containing N2.arrow_forwardYou have two pressure-proof steel cylinders of equal volume, one containing 1.0 kg of CO and the other containing 1.0 kg of acetylene, C2H2. (a) In which cylinder is the pressure greater at 25 C? (b) Which cylinder contains the greater number of molecules?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.
