Question

Imagine that you have an ideal gas in a 8.60 L container, and that 2850 molecules of this gas collide with a square-inch area of the container at any given instant If the volume is increased to 60.2 L at constant temperature, how many collisions will occur per square inch of this larger container? Enter the number of collisions per square inch. Three identical 10 L tanks contain 6 mol of helium (He) at 293 K. The pressure in each of the tanks is increased as described below: Tank A The tank volume is decreased from 10 L to 5 L white the temperature and the number of moles of He remain constant. Tank B; The tank temperature is increased from 293 K to 308 K while the volume and the number of moles of He remain constant

Explanation / Answer


number of collision per square inch is measure of pressure
use:
P1*V1 = P2*V2
2850*8.60 = P2*60.2
P2 = 407 collision per square inch
Answer: 407 collision per square inch
