an ideal gas is confined to a container with adjustable volume. the number of moles, n, and temperature, t, are constant. by what factor will the volume change if pressure increase by a factor of 5.1

The volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, since both moles and temperature remain constant, we can use the Boyle's law that relates the volume and pressure as an inversely proportional relationship:

Thus, since the pressure increases by a factor of 5.1 (statement), we have:

Thus, the final volume is:

It means that the volume will decrease by a factor of 10/51.

"i have always loved contemporary art and made it a general goal to work within the field. after a few nonprofit internships at museums and galleries, i decided to try the for-profit art world and was offered a job as the ad assistant at the magazine. i much prefer the pace of the for-profit art community and have stayed with the company for three years, with a promotion to an account manager last spring."

i just did this and got a 100.

mass and volume are the answers you are looking for
