Accepted Answer

$$\displaystyle 1.00\ 	ext{L}$$

Question 8

Which of the following best explains why helium balloons rise in air?

Accepted Answer

Helium is less dense than air, so the buoyant force pushes the balloon upward.

Which of the following statements about the kinetic molecular theory of gases is FALSE?

Accepted Answer

Gas particles exert attractive forces on each other.

A 1.00 mol sample of an ideal gas at 273 K and 1.00 atm occupies what volume? (Use $$R = 0.0821\ 	ext{L} \cdot 	ext{atm} / 	ext{mol} \cdot 	ext{K})$$

Accepted Answer

$$\displaystyle 22.4\ 	ext{L}$$

Question 11

Which of the following best describes the law of multiple proportions?

Accepted Answer

If two elements form more than one compound, the masses of one element that combine with a fixed mass of the other are in ratios of small whole numbers.

Question 12

Which of the following is the correct expression for the root mean square speed ($$u_{rms}) of a $$gas molecule?

Accepted Answer

$$\displaystyle u_{rms} = \sqrt{\frac{3RT}{M}}$$

Question 13

A reaction releases 250 kJ of heat and does 50 kJ of work on the surroundings. What is the change in internal energy ($$\Delta E) of $$the system?

Accepted Answer

$$\displaystyle -300\ 	ext{kJ}$$

Question 14

Which of the following statements about real gases is correct?

Accepted Answer

Real gases deviate from ideal behavior due to intermolecular forces and finite molecular volume.

Enthalpy is the heat absorbed or released at constant pressure.

Question 19

Which of the following best explains why the temperature of a gas increases when it is compressed rapidly?

Accepted Answer

Work is done on the gas, increasing its internal energy.

Question 20

Which of the following is the correct relationship for the pressure-volume work done by a gas during expansion at constant pressure?

Accepted Answer

$$\displaystyle w = -P \Delta V$$
