Accepted Answer

$$44.8\ 	ext{L}$$

Question 8

A manometer is used to measure the pressure of a gas sample. If the mercury level is 15 mm higher on the open end than on the gas end, and atmospheric pressure is 760 mmHg, what is the pressure of the gas?

Accepted Answer

$$775\ 	ext{mmHg}$$

Question 9

According to the Kinetic Molecular Theory, which of the following statements is true?

Accepted Answer

Gas particles are in constant, random motion.

Accepted Answer

$$0.40$$

Question 11

Which of the following best describes the effect of increasing temperature on the average velocity of gas molecules?

Accepted Answer

The average velocity increases.

Question 12

A 10.0 L tank contains 4.00 mol of hydrogen gas at 300 K. What is the pressure in the tank? (Use $$R = 0.0821\ 	ext{L} \cdot 	ext{atm} / 	ext{mol} \cdot 	ext{K})$$

Accepted Answer

$$9.85\ 	ext{atm}$$

Question 13

Which of the following is a correct statement of Dalton’s Law of Partial Pressures?

Accepted Answer

The total pressure of a mixture of gases is equal to the sum of the partial pressures of each individual gas.

Question 14

Which of the following best explains why helium is used in deep-sea diving tanks instead of nitrogen?

Accepted Answer

Helium is less soluble in blood than nitrogen, reducing the risk of decompression sickness.

Accepted Answer

High temperature and low pressure

Question 18

A 1.00 L flask contains 0.50 mol of argon and 0.50 mol of neon at 300 K. If the total pressure is 24.6 atm, what is the mole percent of argon?

Accepted Answer

$$50\%$$

Question 19

Which of the following best describes the relationship between pressure and volume for a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature (Boyle’s Law)?

Accepted Answer

Pressure is inversely proportional to volume.

Question 20
