What does Dalton's Law of Partial Pressures say?

The total pressure of a gas mixture is the sum of the individual pressures.


What is iceberg's total volume?

The density of ice is about 0.917 of that of fresh water.Essentially all the world's ice is locked up in the Antarctic, and it is likewise essentially the total volume of fresh water on Earth.It is ~ 3 - 4 % of the Earths total water, of which most is in the Oceans.The volume of the Oceans is about 1.3x109km3. So 3 or 4 % of that volume is the volume of earth's ice. I'm sure your calculator can handle the calculation.It is not worth making the correction for the manner in which ice expands when it freezes, for the numbers are necessarily approximate.


What unit is density measured?

kilogram per liter ( = grams/ccm) pounds (or slugs) per cubic foot Mass Density is always measured in mass per unit volume. There is no specific standard for either the mass unit or volume unit; instead, the unit most appropriate to the size being discussed it used. Note that "density" can also be a non-mass measurement, as with electro-magnetic field (or flux) density, or as a numeric counting, as in "10,000 fish per cubic mile of ocean".

How do you calculate the porosity for rhombohedral packing?

Porosity= Volume of void space/ Total volume of the solidThis is a good way for soil, If you have the initial volume of the soil then all you have to do to find the void space is saturate it with water. As long as you know the weight different between before and after saturation you can find the void space because we know that water's density is about 1g/cm^3.So,Porosity= ((mass of saturated soil - mass of original soil) Density of water) / Volume of original soilThis also works.

Anticipated effect on blood pressure and the physiological basis of the response to high-salt diet?

Increased blood pressure. This is due to increased sodium in the blood, increasing the total extracellular fluid volume


How will pressure of an object will change if its area is doubled?

It won't. The pressure within a hollow object may change if the surface area changes, hence the volume. The total pressure acting on the exterior of a solid object may change if the total surface area changes.

What is the volume of air in the tank of capacity 1500cc if you pump only 500cc?

Assuming the tank was not in a vacuum, the VOLUME stays constant. The volume is the total area inside the tank. The pressure would change when 'pumped up'. The volume would not. The pressure inside would also change based on the temperature, relative to the outside pressure.


Why does the volume of air in a ball remain the same when you pump in more air?

When you pump in more air, the pressure inside the ball increases. This increased pressure compresses the air molecules closer together, but the total volume of air remains the same because the ball's outer surface is rigid and does not expand.


What is the total pressure in of the mixture after it is placed in a container one half the volume of the original container?

When the mixture is placed in a container half the volume of the original container, the total pressure increases by a factor of two due to Boyle's Law, which states that pressure and volume are inversely proportional as long as temperature is constant. So, the total pressure of the mixture in the smaller container will be double the pressure of the mixture in the original container.


What is the formula for calculating constant pressure of heat capacity?

Cp = ΔH/ΔT = (ΔU+pΔV)/ΔT Where Cp is heat capacity at constant pressure, ΔH is enthalpy change, ΔT is temperature change, ΔU is total internal energy change, and pΔV is pressure multiplied by change in volume.


How do blood pressure and total peripheral resistance change with exercise?

total peripheral resistance will decrease because of vaso dilation of local arterioles that are supplying the active muscles i.e,skeletal muscles. and blood pressure will increase for two reasons: increased cardiac output resulting from increased pumping activity of heart. because of vasoconstriction of arterioles every where else in the body


When you change the state of an object does it change the total weight of matter?

No, changing the state of an object (such as from solid to liquid or gas) does not change the total weight of matter. The mass remains constant, as the amount of substance does not change; it simply takes on a different form. However, factors like temperature and pressure can affect the density and volume of the substance, but the total weight remains the same.


What is the relationship between temperature, pressure, and volume in determining the total internal energy of a gas?

The relationship between temperature, pressure, and volume in determining the total internal energy of a gas is described by the ideal gas law. This law states that the total internal energy of a gas is directly proportional to its temperature and is also affected by its pressure and volume. As temperature increases, the internal energy of the gas also increases. Additionally, changes in pressure and volume can affect the internal energy of the gas through their impact on the gas's temperature.


how pressure increase with density?

For most materials and substances, and not allowing other parameters to change (like temperature), the density goes up as pressure increases.One way to look at is like this:Suppose a balloon is filled with air -- and sealed. Dunk it under water, which squeezes it harder, thus decreasing the volume.The total mass is the same.Density = mass / volume.Since volume has gone down, density has gone up.Another way.Put more air in the balloon, but instead of a balloon, it has a rigid inflexible wall. Now the volume has not changed, but the mass is higher (since you increased the amount of air).So the density is higher (see above).But what happened to the rigid walls of the balloon. The air pushes harder on them!So increased density causes higher pressure, and higher pressure causes increased density.
