You can use the Ideal Gas law which says that for an ideal gas the pressure times the volume divided by the temperature must be a constant number. And in this case since you are given that the temperature is a constant number then the gas law becomes "the pressue times the volume is a constant number". This means whatever their product is at one time , it will equal their product at a different time. The equation would be: Pf x Vf = Pi x Vi where the i & f mean initial & final. You solve this for the unknown final pressure ,Pf as: Pf = ( Pi x Vi )/Vf = ( 655 x 10 )/1.5 = 4367 mm of Hg

What is a brief description of the basic refrigeration cycle?

Starting at the compressor;Low pressure vapor refrigerant is compressed and discharged out of the compressor.The refrigerant at this point is a high temperature, high pressure, superheated vapor.The high pressure refrigerant flows to the condenser by way of the "Discharge Line".The condenser changes the high pressure refrigerant from a high temperature vapor to a low temperature liquid and leaves through the "Liquid Line".The high pressure refrigerant then flows through a filter dryer to the Thermal Expansion valve or TXV.The TXV meters the correct amount of liquid refrigerant into the evaporator.As the TXV meters the refrigerant, the high pressure liquid changes to a low pressure, low temperature, saturated vapor.This saturated vapor enters the evaporator and is changed to a low pressure dry vapor.The low pressure dry vapor is then returned to the compressor in the "Suction line".The cycle then starts over.

What factor is kept the same in a scientific experiment?

All variables except for the independent and dependent variables should be kept the same. The other two will be changed by a fixed amount and by an unknown amount to be discovered during the experiment, respectively.


Why does water dissolves faster in high temperature?

Heat gives more energy to the atoms, so they move around quicker.
