Why does different gases with different properties still have the same number of particles in equal volumes of the gases?

The volume of a gas is almost completely made up by EMPTY space with some, very tiny, little molecules here and there.
So if you have a balloon with (any kind of) gas, the volume (and hence pressure and vice-verse) is determined by the motionof those molecules and the (number of) collisions against the wall of that balloon.
It doesn't matter which molecules, but only how much molecules are bumping against it.
Since temperature determines the speed of the movement, this also influences the number and strength of the wall-collisions, this gives a gas also 'its' pressure and hence 'volume'!

∙ 11y agoAll gases at standard temperature and pressure contain 1 mole (6.02×
1023particles) of gas. These gases, however, may have different properties. Gases have differing densities, as molecules range in mass. Density, measured in grams/Liter, will vary from gas to gas. According to Avogadro's law (who discovered 1 mole of gas contains6.02×
1023particles) states that all gases occupy the same volume regardless of the mass of particles. So the densities of gases can change, but the space they occupy cannot.

Why do the properties of an ion differ from those of its parent ion?
Because they have gained or lost electrons and are no longer neutral.
Why argon and chlorine gases have such different chemical properties?
They have a different number of valence electrons.
Why would you expect lithium and sulfur to have different chemical and physical properties?
Because they both have a different number of valence electrons in their outer shells, and that is what determines the properties of the element.
Why is magnesium different from other elements?
All elements are different from each other, that is why they are called elements. They have a different number of subatomic particles making them different.
If you dilute a strong acid with water will it become a weak acid?
No!'Dilute' and 'concentrated' are properties related to the number of particles within a given volume. 'Strong' and 'weak' are properties related to the number of particles which dissociate in certain conditions. The two are completely independent; altering the concentration is a simple enough matter, but to change strong acids (such as hydrogen fluoride and hydrogen chloride) into weak acids (such as ethanoic/acetic acid and ammonium) would require altering fundamental properties of the universe.
A property that is determined by the number of particles present in a system but that is independent of the properties of the particles themselves?
Colligative Property! :)
What is the term that is used to describe the properties of solutions that are dependent on the number not the type of solute particles?
Colligative Properties
What determines the properties of elements?
the properties of elements are determined by the structures of their atoms.
Who is the person who stated that equal volumes of gases at the same temperature and pressure will have the same number of particles?
Amedeo Avogadro
Do colligative properties of solutions depend on the number of solute particles in a solution?
True
If all atoms contain the same types of subatomic particles why do different atoms have different properties?
It is a matter of how they are arranged and electrically charged that changes the properties of them
Equal volumes of nitrogen and oxygen at the same temperature and pressure would?
If equal volumes of nitrogen and oxygen are at the same temperature and pressure, then both (the nitrogen and oxygen) will contain the same number of particles
Why do isotope have the same chemical properties?
Chemical properties depend on electrons.Isotopes of an element have the same number of electrons and different number of neutrons.So they have similar chemical properties and different physical properties.
What gives molocules different properties?
the number of valence electrons in the outer shell are what determines the different properties
What is true about the number of protons and nuetrons in an isotope?
Isotopes of an element have same number of protons and different number of neutrons. Hence similar in chemical properties and different in physical properties.
What is the number of subatomic particles are in an atom?
An atom contain protons, neutrons and electrons. The number of these particles is different for each isotope.
Why do the properties of an ion differ from those of its parent ion?
Because they have gained or lost electrons and are no longer neutral.
