Chapter 15, Problem 8CR

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The relationship between the volume of a sample of gas and the number of molecules the gas contains told by Avogadro’s law is to be stated. The reason as to why the temperature and pressure be held constant in Avogadro’s law is to be stated. Whether the Avogadro’s law describes a direct or an inverse relationship between the volume and number of moles of gas is to be stated.

Concept Introduction:

Avogadro was the scientist who described the relationship between the number of moles of gas and the volume of a gas. An ideal gas equation is derived from the combination of Charles’s law, Boyle’s law and Avogadro law. Ideal gas law depends on the temperature, pressure, volume and moles of a gas.
