Q: A sample of hydrogen gas occupies 3.50 L at 0.750 atm. If the pressure is increased to 1.50 atm at constant temperature, what is the new volume?

$$V_2$$ = \frac{$$P_1$$ $$V_1$$}{$$P_2$$} = \frac{0.750 \times 3.50}{1.50} = 1.75\ \mathrm{L}$$

Q: A 0.896 L sample of helium gas is heated from 0°C to a final temperature at constant pressure. What is the final temperature in Kelvin?

$$T_2$$ = \frac{$$V_2$$ $$T_1$$}{$$V_1$$} = \frac{0.896 \times 273}{0.678} = 361\ \mathrm{K}$$

Q: If helium ($$M = 4.00\ \mathrm{g/mol}) $$and oxygen ($$M = 32.00\ \mathrm{g/mol}) $$are allowed to effuse through a small hole, what is the ratio of their effusion rates ($$\text{rate}_{He}/\text{rate}_{O_2$}$$)?

$$\text{rate}_{He}/\text{rate}_{O_2$} = \sqrt{\frac{32.00}{4.00}} = 2.83$$
