Yes it's a gas, and if it is 'air' then it's a mixture of nitrogen, oxygen, argon and tiny amounts of other gasses.
Ammonia gas is collected in an inverted gas jar to take advantage of its lower density compared to air. This allows the gas to displace the air in the jar and fill it completely, ensuring an accurate measurement of the gas volume. Additionally, collecting the gas in an inverted jar prevents any leakage or loss of the gas during the collection process. Finally, the inverted jar setup also minimizes the risk of the gas coming into contact with any moisture or impurities present in the surrounding environment, ensuring the purity of the collected gas sample.
What has occured is a process called diffusion, which is the spreading of particles from a higher concentration to a lower concentration. The particles in any gas move quicly and in all directions and fill their container because there are no bonds between them. The jar with the bromine gas has a higher concentration of the gas particles, they move through the air particles to the jar with the lower concentration of bromine gas until they are dispersed evenly throughout the jar, hence the gas can be seen filling both jars. The same would happen with a clear gas but bromine is used for demonstration purposes as it has a colour and so the process can be seen clearly.
Yes, you could consider air a gas, but air on earth is more commonly thought of as a collection of gases: oxygen, nitrogen, etc.But on the other side, "gas is air" is not correct. When we talk about "air", we talk about the specific combination of gases that we breathe.In other words, you would not say that a jar full of methane is air, but you could say that a jar full of air is a gas.
Leaving the gas jar undisturbed in a soil profile activity ensures that any gas released from the soil is accurately captured and measured. Disturbing the gas jar can lead to loss of gas or inaccurate results, affecting the analysis of the soil's gas composition.
Hydrogen gas is less dense than air and tends to rise quickly, so collecting it in a test tube allows for easier capture and observation of the gas. Additionally, a test tube typically has a smaller opening, which reduces the risk of the gas escaping. Finally, a test tube is easier to handle and transport compared to a larger glass jar.
When you put a sealed glass jar full of air in the freezer, the temperature inside the jar decreases. According to the ideal gas law, as the temperature drops, the gas molecules inside the jar lose energy and move less vigorously, resulting in a decrease in gas pressure. Therefore, the gas pressure in the jar will decrease as the temperature lowers.
If you put a sealed jar full of air in the freezer, the gas pressure inside the jar will decrease. This occurs because the temperature of the gas drops, leading to a reduction in the kinetic energy of the air molecules, which results in fewer collisions with the jar's walls. According to Boyle's law, as the temperature decreases, the pressure also decreases, assuming the volume of the jar remains constant.
Increase the pressure of the gas inside
Heating a sealed gas jar would increase the temperature of the gas inside, causing the gas molecules to move more rapidly and exert greater pressure on the walls of the jar. If the temperature rises significantly, the pressure could exceed the jar's capacity, potentially leading to a rupture or explosion. Therefore, it's crucial to avoid heating sealed containers to prevent dangerous situations.
As the water boils, it creates steam which increases the pressure inside the sealed jar. This increased pressure causes the air inside the balloon to expand, filling more of the jar.
If the jar is not completely full of water, and the air inside is not completely saturated, then yes, a little bit can.
Theoretically, they could expel gas into a sealed container like a jar and ship that.

I sealed the pickle jar after I took out a pickle.
If a jar of air is placed on the jar of brown gas, the two gases will mix and diffuse into each other. Since brown gas is likely a combination of gases like hydrogen and oxygen, there may be a potential for a chemical reaction to occur, depending on the composition and conditions in the jars.
The jar, much like massive ships on the ocean, displaces the water and thus it floats. The jar doesn't even need to be sealed--but it does have to remain upright so it doesn't tip over and fill with water. You can imagine the water that is being displaced pushing upward toward the jar to to keep it afloat despite the jar's weight. Another factor that may be playing a part in this is that in a sealed jar, much like an inner tube at the pool, the air inside is less dense than water. The general rule of physics, in this case, is that less dense objects are "lighter" than those of more dense objects--the relative densities of the two things (water and the jar filled with air) would determine which object rises to the top.
No. Not at all. Volume has no force. Put 1 cubic foot of air inside a sealed jar, and weigh the air. Now let the same air into a 10-cubic-foot jar; seal the jar, and weigh the air again. The air has 10 times the original volume, but it still has exactly the same weight.
