Question 2

Multiple Choice

A gas sample is confined within a chamber that has a movable piston.A small load is placed on the piston; and the system is allowed to reach equilibrium.If the total weight of the piston and load is 70.0 N and the piston has an area of 5.0 × 10-4 m2, what is the pressure exerted on the piston by the gas? Note: Atmospheric pressure is 1.013 × 105 Pa.
