An 8.5-l tire is filled with 0.55 mol of gas at a temperature of 305 k. what is the pressure of the gas in the tire?

1.62 atm

Explanation:

We can solve the problem by using the ideal gas equation:

where:

p = ? is the pressure of the gas in the tire

V = 8.5 L is the volume of the tire

n = 0.55 mol is the number of moles of the gas

R = 0.0821 atm L / K mol is the gas constant

T = 305 K is the temperature of the gas

By re-arranging the equation and substituting the numbers in, we find:

what experimental evidence led scientists to change from the previous model to this one?

a few of the positive particles aimed at a gold foil seemed to bounce back.

the colors of light emitted from heated atoms had very specific energies.

experiments with water vapor showed that elements combine in specific proportions.

cathode rays were bent in the same way whenever a magnet was brought near them.
