- increasing pressure on hydrogen contained in a closed container
- some hydrogen gas leaking out of the container
- increasing the volume of the container of hydrogen gas
- adding more hydrogen gas to the container without increasing the volume of the container
Options
(i) and (iii)
(i) and (iv)
(ii) and (iii)
(ii) and (iv)
Solution
both ii and iii
The condition in which hydrogen gas would leak out of the container or if there is an increase in volume of the container in which hydrogen is present, would bring about more distance between the molecules of hydrogen gas.
