I. Write the property of gases being described in the following

statements.
______________________ 1. It is the three-dimensional space inside
the container holding the gas.
______________________ 2. It is the force the gas exerts on a given
area of the container in which it is
contained.
______________________ 3. It is measured in moles.
______________________ 4. It is the measurement of heat or how
fast the particles are moving.
______________________ 5. Gases seem to be weightless, but they
are classified as matter.

II. Problem Solving: Use the G-R-E-S-A method in solving.

1. Oxygen gas inside a 2.5 L gas tank has a pressure of 1.95
atm. Provided that the temperature remains constant, how
much pressure is needed to reduce its volume by ½?

2. A scuba diver needs a diving tank in order to provide

breathing gas while he is underwater. How much pressure
is needed for 8.00 liters of gas at 1.50 atmospheric pressure
to be compressed in a 4.00 liter cylinder.

3. A sample of fluorine gas occupies a volume of 800 mL at

760 torr. Given that the temperature remains the same,
calculate the pressure required to reduce its volume by
1/3.
