Considering a scenario where the temperature of a gas is doubled while its volume is halved, how would this affect the pressure, assuming the number of moles remains constant?
Considering a scenario where the temperature of a gas is doubled while its volume is halved, how would this affect the pressure, assuming the number of moles remains constant?
- The pressure will be halved.
- The pressure will double.
- The pressure will quadruple. (correct)
- The pressure will remain constant.
A chemist observes that a reaction vessel feels cold to the touch. Which of the following conclusions can be accurately drawn from this observation?
A chemist observes that a reaction vessel feels cold to the touch. Which of the following conclusions can be accurately drawn from this observation?
- The reaction is endothermic, absorbing heat from the surroundings. (correct)
- The reaction is at equilibrium, with no net change in heat.
- The reaction involves no change in energy; the temperature shift is coincidental.
- The reaction is exothermic, releasing heat into the surroundings.
If a solid undergoes sublimation, what phase transition is occurring, and what is being bypassed?
If a solid undergoes sublimation, what phase transition is occurring, and what is being bypassed?
- Deposition; the liquid phase is bypassed.
- Vaporization; the liquid phase is bypassed. (correct)
- Melting; the liquid phase is bypassed.
- Sublimation is not a recognized transition; all phases must be passed sequentially.

Study Notes
- The provided text is an answer key for a chemistry study guide.
- The study guide covers measuring matter and changes in matter.
4th Partial: Measuring Matter and Changes in Matter
- Matter is anything that has mass and occupies space
- Weight is a measure of the force of gravity on an object
- Mass is a measure of how much matter is in an object
- Volume is the amount of space matter occupies
- Density is the ratio of the mass of a substance to its volume
- A physical change alters the form/appearance of matter but doesn't create a new substance
- A chemical change produces one or more new substances
- Combustion is a rapid combination with oxygen, producing heat and light
- Electrolysis uses electricity to break a compound into elements
- Oxidation is the slow combination of a substance with oxygen
- Tarnishing is the slow combination of a bright metal with sulfur or another substance, producing a dark coating
- Energy is the ability to do work or cause change
- The Law of Conservation of Mass states that energy is neither created nor destroyed
- Temperature is a measure of the average kinetic energy of random motion of particles of matter
- Thermal energy is the total potential and kinetic energy of all particles in an object
- An exothermic change releases energy
- An endothermic change absorbs energy
- Kinetic energy is the energy of matter in motion
- Potential energy is the energy an object has because of its position
- Chemical energy is internal energy stored in the chemical bonds between atoms
- Electromagnetic energy travels through space as waves
- Electrical energy is the energy of moving electrical charges
