Consider two different containers, each filled with 2 moles of Ne(g). One of the containers is rigid and has constant volume. The other container is flexible (like a balloon) and is capable of changing its volume to keep the external pressure and inter- nal pressure equal to each other. If you raise the temperature in both containers, what happens to the pressure and density of the gas inside each container? Assume a constant external pressure.

Answer:

See explanation.

Explanation:

For the ideal gas law (PV = nRT), we can notice that when the temperatures increases, the pressure or the volume must increase.

For the container with constant volume, the pressure will increase. Because density is mass/volume, in this container the density will not change.

For the other container, the pressure must be the same as the external, so it will not change, then the volume must increase. When the volume increases, the density decreases (density = mass/volume), so the pressure doesn't change and the density decreases.
