18. Base your answer to the following question on the following information.
In a laboratory, a glass tube is filled with hydrogen gas at a very low pressure. When a scientist
applies a high voltage between metal electrodes in the tube, light is emitted. The scientist analyzes
the light with a spectroscope and observes four distinct spectral lines. The table below gives the
color, frequency, and energy for each of the four spectral lines. The unit for frequency is hertz,
Hz.

Identify one condition not mentioned in the passage, under which hydrogen gas behaves most like an
ideal gas.
Collisions were not made between the gas particles.

Base your answers to questions 19 and 20 on the information below and on your knowledge of
chemistry.
A 200.-milliliter sample of CO2(g) is placed in a sealed, rigid cylinder with a movable piston at
296 K and 101.3 kPa.
