Question
Chapter 4, Problem 16E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The measurable properties of gases are to be named.
Concept introduction:
There are different instruments used to measure different properties. For example, a thermometer measures the temperature of a substance. Thus, temperature is a measurable property. Similarly, any other property that can be measured using an instrument is a measurable property.

A sample of gas is collected in a balloon that can easily expand and contract. It should be
noted that the pressure and the number of moles of gas both remain constant. The following
data is collected from the balloon:
Volume (L)
Temperature (°C)
-34.6
20.0
22
-10.8
25
25
27
48.8
Construct a plot of temperature vs. volume. Keep the units for temperature in °C; do not
convert the temperatures to Kelvin.
Make a line of best fit for the data points, and then extrapolate the line back to where the
volume is 0.
Answer the following questions about your graph:
1. At what temperature (in °C) does the sample have a volume of zero litres? Use the
equation of the line of best fit to determine this temperature.
2. What is the significance of this temperature?
3. Can a sample of a gas ever have an actual volume of zero litres? Why or why not?
4. Now use the equation of the line to determine what the volume of the gas would have
to be in order for the gas to have a temperature of -350°C. Does this…
In an experiment, sulfuric acid reacted with different volumes of sodium thiosulfate in water. A yellow precipitate was formed during the reaction. A cross drawn at the base of each flask became gradually invisible due the formation of this yellow precipitate. The time taken for the cross to become invisible was recorded. A partial record of the experiment is shown.

Based on your knowledge of factors that affect the rates of chemical reactions, predict the trend in the last column of the experimental record. Use complete sentences to explain the trend you predicted. You do not have to determine exact values for time; just describe the trend you would expect (increase or decrease) and why it occurs.
