Alab technician has 45l gas in a flexible container at a pressure of 100.0 kpa. if the technician decreases the pressure to 60.0 kpa, without changing the temperature, what is the new volume?

75 L

Explanation:

We assume that the gas in the container is an ideal gas, which is governed by the ideal gas equation : PV = nRT , where P is the pressure of the gas, V is the volume of the container, n is the number of mols of the gas, R is the universal gas constant and T is the temperature of the gas.

Here, R is a universal constant with a value of ≈ 8.314 J/mol-K. Also, given that temperature (T) is maintained constant. And since the container is closed, there is no exchange of the gas between the container and the surroundings, thus keeping the number of mols (n) of the gas constant. Hence, in the ideal gas equation, right hand side, i.e, nRT is a constant.

Initially the equation is:

Finally, the equation is:

Since, nRT is a constant,

It is given that, , and .

Therefore, 100x45 = 60 x ⇒

a is the answer

explanation:

which statement about trans-fatty acids is false?

a. the conversion of cis-fatty acids to trans-fatty acids is inhibited by the presence of antioxidants.

hope this
