- 4. Multiple Choice
Gases found in the environment are most likely to exhibit properties similar to that of ideal gases under conditions of:
low temperatures and high pressures
high temperatures and high pressures
high temperatures and low pressures
low temperatures and low pressures
- 5. Multiple Choice
Assume an experiment vessel which is well fitted with a piston. The airtight piston has negligible mass and can move up and down freely. There is 1 mol of an ideal gas contained within the vessel under the piston at pressure of 100 kPa. The piston rests at 10 cm from the base of the vessel. The pressure in the vessel increases to 200 kPa as force is applied to the piston. What would be the new resting position of the piston from the base of the vessel? Assume the temperature is held constant at 300 K throughout the experiment.
5 cm
2 cm
1 cm
8 cm
