3. The variation of fluid pressure with height is described by the differential equation: dP = -pg dz Here, p is the specific density and g is the local acceleration of gravity. For an MP idea gas, p = where M is the molar mass and R is the universal gas RT' constant. Modeling the atmosphere as an isothermal column of ideal gas at 10°C, estimate the ambient pressure, in atmosphere in Denver, where z = 1 mile relative to sea level. For air, take M = 29 g/mole.

A vessel of capacity 0.3 m3 is insulated and divided into two sections by a partition. One section is 0.2 m3in volume and initially contains H2at 2 bar and 127°C. The remaining section initially holds N2at 4 bar and27°C. The adiabatic partition is then removed, and the gases are allowed to mix. Determine : (i) The temperature of the equilibrium mixture,(ii) The pressure of the mixture, and(iii) The change in entropy for each component and total value.cv(N ) 2 = 0.744 kJ/kg K, cv(H ) 2 = 10.352 kJ/kg Kcp(N ) 2 = 1.041 kJ/kg K, cp(N ) 2 = 14.476 kJ/kg K.
L-Serine is an amino acid important for its roles in synthesizing other amino acids and for its use in intravenous feeding solutions. It is often synthesized commercially by fermentation, and recovered by subjecting the fermentation broth to several processing steps and then crystallizing the serine from an aqueous solution. The solubilities of L-serine (L-Ser) in water have been measured at several temperatures, producing the following data:5T(K) 283.4 285.9 289.3 299.1 316.0 317.8 322.9 327.1x(mole fraction L-Ser) 0.0400 0.0426 0.0523 0.0702 0.1091 0.1144 0.1181 0.1248One of the ways such data can be represented is with the van’t Hoff equation: ln x =( a=T b).Graph the data so that the resulting plot is linear. Estimate a and b and give their units.

. A 2.50 mole sample of a perfect gas for which Cv,m = 3R/2 (assume constant over T-range) undergoes the following two-step process: (1) from an initial state of the gas described by T = 13 ºC and P = 1.75 x 105 Pa, the gas undergoes an isothermal expansion against a constant pressure of 3.75 x 104 Pa until the volume has doubled. (2) subsequently, the gas is cooled at constant volume. The temperature falls to -24ºC. Calculate q, w, ∆U, and ∆H for each step and for the overall process.
