Beth has two unlabeled balloons, one filled with hydrogen gas and the second filled with neon gas. She researches and writes down the density of hydrogen and neon. Beth also has several chambers filled with various gases and a poster showing the densities of these gases. She has no other materials or tools available to her to help her identify the element in each balloon. The poster and Beth’s data are shown. Select the gas from the poster that Beth should use in an experiment to identify the element in each balloon. Explain your answer.

hey there!

boiling point is the temperature at which the vapor pressure of the liquid equals atmospheric pressure. the vapor pressure of solvent molecules is decreased when a solute is added, so a higher temperature is required to increase the number of solvent molecules in the gas phase above the liquid.

at the freezing point, the vapor pressures of the solid and liquid are equal; a lower temperature is needed to reduce the number of solvent particles above the liquid.

hope this you

elements make up everything, and they combine to make compounds.

the answer is c
