Who said as the volume of gas increases its pressure decreases?

This is Boyle's law which holds true as long as the temperature is constant.


Is wall pressure opposite to turgor pressure?

No, wall pressure and turgor pressure are not opposite to each other. Wall pressure refers to the force exerted by the cell wall of a plant cell against the protoplast, while turgor pressure is the force exerted by the vacuole against the cell wall. They both work in conjunction to maintain cell shape and provide support to the plant cell.


He said that as a volume of a gas increases its pressure decreases?

As a given mass of gas is allowed more volume, pressure decreases. volume is a measure of space, and because gas can be compressed to fit in small volumes, the increase of volume on a gas does not imply an increase in amount of gas, simply space that it is allowed to spread through.


A balloon is filled with helium. Its volume is 4.2L at 312.K. What will its volume in liters be at 285.K assuming no change in pressure?

Assuming pressure is constant, like you said, volume and temperature have a direct relationship. As temperature increases, volume increases; as temperature decreases, volume decreases. Setting up a algebraic direct proportion, you get approximately 3.84 liters for the balloon at 285 degrees K.


What is the accurate definition of vapor pressure?

Vapor pressure is defined as the pressure exerted by a vapor in thermodynamic equilibrium with its condensed phases at a given temperature in a closed system. Vapor pressure is also known as equilibrium vapor pressure.


What is hydrostatic pressure used for drilling oil wells?

In Drilling terminology, hydrostatic pressure is "The pressure exerted on a column of fluid at rest". This said, an oil well is just a column of fluid. Hydrostatic pressure is used to control the formation pressure in a well in order to prevent a "kick" (an influx of fluid into the well bore) or a blow-out (an uncontrolled influx of fluid into the well bore). Hydrostatic Pressure is calculated by a simple calculation = depth in meters x weight of drilling fluid in kg/m3 x gravity constant of 0.00981. IE. drilling at a depth of 3459m with drilling fluid that weighs 1120 kg/m3 would give you a Hydrostatic pressure of 38005 kpa. This is the amount of pressure that is being exerted on the formation at 3459m


A locomotive has broken through the wall of a train station As it did what can be said about the force exerted by the locomotive on the wall Does the wall exert greater eqaul or less force than train?

The wall exerted less force, so the force exerted on the wall by the locomotive was greater than the force of the wall.


How do you solve a Charles' Law problem?

The basic equation is a special case of the ideal gas law. It states that the volume is proportional to the absolute temperature of said gas at a constant pressure.
