A block of wood is heavier than gas because the wood has more mass and density compared to the gas molecules which are spread out in the container. The atoms and molecules in the gas have less mass and are flying around with more space between them, making the gas less dense and lighter than a solid block of wood.

If the temperature of gas in the container decreases what happens to its pressure?

Assuming the volume is kept constant, the pressure will also decrease in this case.


What will the pressure inside the container become if the piston is moved to the 1.80 L rm L mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant?

This problem can be solved with the ideal gas law. The original pressure and volume of the container are proportional the final pressure and volume of the container. The original pressure was 1 atmosphere and the original volume was 1 liter. If the final volume is 1.8 liters, then the final pressure is 0.55 atmospheres.


What will the pressure inside the container become if the piston is moved to the 1.20 mark while the temperature of the gas is kept constant?

If the temperature of the gas is kept constant, according to Boyle's Law, the pressure and volume of the gas are inversely proportional. As the piston moves to the 1.20 mark, reducing the volume, the pressure inside the container will increase to maintain equilibrium.


Which shape of matter has neither a definite shape nor definite volume?

The gas is the state of matter which do not have definite volume because it occupy all the space which is provided to it and the shape of container in which it is kept.


If the volume of a container of air is reduced?

If the volume of a container of air is reduced, the pressure of the air inside the container will increase. This is because the volume and pressure of a gas are inversely proportional according to Boyle's Law. The particles inside the container will collide more frequently with the walls, leading to an increase in pressure.

What state of matter does not have its own volume or shape?

Plasma is a state of matter that does not have its own volume or shape. Plasma is a hot, ionized gas where the electrons are separated from the atoms, resulting in a mixture of positively charged ions and free electrons.


If material is heated and expands the density of the material will?

This relies on 3 things. The Pressure, volume and temperature of a Gas is all related. If the pressure is kept the same and temperature increased. The Volume (of the container) must be increased. If the Volume (of the container) is kept constant and temperature is increased the Pressure will increase. A rough idea of what will happen can be worked out by, pV=cT Where p is the pressure, V is the volume of the container, c is a constant, T is the temperature.
