Concept explainers
Interpretation:
The units of k’ if pressure is in atmospheres and volume is in liters is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
The scope of the measurement depends upon the context and event. Measurement is commonly used as an international system of unit as a comparison framework. Two variables such as mass (m) and volume (V) can be described as directly proportional one on other by the expression m α V. Besides, the term density is given by the mass of the given substance per unit volume. It is denoted by the symbol ‘D’. Moreover, slope is the ratio of the change in the value of ‘y’ with respect to change in the value of ‘x’.

- In the following scenario, identify which of the statements represents a theory, law, or hypothesis. (a) A student exploring the properties of gases proposes that is she decreases the volume of a sample of gas then the pressure exerted by the sample will increase (b) Many scientists over time have conducted similar experiments and have concluded that pressure and volume are inversely proportional. (c) She proposes that the reason this occurs is that if the volume is decreased, more molecules will collide with a given area of the container walls, causing the pressure to be greater.arrow_forwardTwo identical balloons are filled to the same volume, one with air and one with helium. The next day, the volume of the air-filled balloon has decreased by 4.5 %. By what percent has the volume of the helium-filled balloon decreased? (Assume that the air is four-fifths nitrogen and one-fifth oxygen, and that the temperature did not change.) Express your answer using two significant figures.arrow_forwardThe volume of blood ejected by the humming birds heart per beat is approximately 1cm3. The average heart rate of the humming bird is 1250 beats per minute. Determine the volume of blood that passes through the heart of a humming bird in one year, report your answer in m3/year.arrow_forward
- A flask weighs 345.8g is filled with 225mL of carbon tetrachloride. The weight of the flask and carbon tetrachloride is found to be 703.55g. From this information,calculate the density if carbon tetrachloridearrow_forwardAt constant pressure, density of gas is inversely proportional to its temperature. This is how hot air balloon is floating in air: burning fuel makes inside air temperature higher and density lower; low density air balloon float on high density regular air. What is the density of air in g/L at 66 degree C if the atmospheric pressure is 1.0 atm? The average molar mass of air is about 29 g/mol. Keep two decimal places for your answer.arrow_forwardAn instrument uses potassium bromide as one of the compounds in the analysis of noble gases of a planet. Potassium bromide has a specific gravity of 2.38 and a molecular weight of 119 grams per mole [gmol]. Assume the spacecraft has a liquid sample of potassium bromide onboard that fills a 1.35-gallon [gal] container. What is the amount of the potassium bromide sample in the container, in units of moles [mol]?arrow_forward
- A barometer is filled with a cylindrical column of mercury that is 76.0 cm high and 1.000 cm in diameter. If the density of mercury is 13.53 g/cm3, what is the mass of mercury in the column? Express the answer in standard notation using the correct number of sig. figs.arrow_forwardA student performs an experiment to determine the molar mass of magnesium oxide. The student repeats the experiment five times and collects the following data: 40.220gmol, 40.654gmol, 40.314gmol, 40.165gmol, and 40.554gmol. If the accepted value for the molar mass is 40.304gmol, what is the percent relative error for the average of this data? Give the answer with three significant figures.arrow_forwardWhat volume of ammonia would be produced by this reaction if 9.10m^3 of nitrogen were consumed?arrow_forward
- Units: Include units in your answer when instructed Use SI units only in your answers For example, use Pascals not atmospheres. Numbers: Use either the normal form, such as 132 or 132.5, or the exponential form, which represents 132 as 1.32E+2, represents 5 x 104 as 5E+4 or 5E4, or represents 52 x 10-3 as 5 2E-2, unless instructed otherwise. Do not use the form 5 x 104 If your answer is positive, do not place a "+" sign before your answer.
