A cubic equation of state always has three roots, in which O Above the critical temperature Tc, two of the roots are complex numbers and one is a real number. At the critical temperature Tc, three equal complex roots. Below the critical temperature Tc, two of the roots are real numbers and one is a complex number. At the triple point temperature Tp, three equal complex roots.

It turns out van der Waals was very careful when “designing” the van der Waals equation: P = [RT / (Vm−b)] − (a / V^2m). If you’re not sure, let’s see why he divided the "a" term by V^2m and not Vm. Specifically, can you calculate the residual volume of an alternative equation of state: P = [RT / (Vm − b)] − (a / Vm) and show that the residual volume is -∞ L/mol
For an Einstein solid with each of the following values of Nand q, list all of the possible microstates, count them, and verify formula 2.9. N = 4, q = 2
In the canonical ensemble, we control the variables T, p, and N, and the fundamental function is the Gibbs free energy (G). But if we control T, p, and μ, then we will have a different fundamental function, Z (This is the case for cells that often regulate their temperature, pressure, and chemical potentials to maintain equilibrium). Which of the below options should the Z function equal? H - TS - μN H + TS + μN H + TS - μN G + μN F - pV - μN -H + TS + μN
An ideal gas, at pressure 4.9 atmospheres, in a volume 1.1 m3 and at a temperature of 308 K, is compressed into a lower volume 0.44 m3, at a pressure of 6.26 atmospheres. What is the new temperature, in K with two digits of precision?
Using the method of the preceding problem, estimate the fraction of nitric oxide (NO) molecules at a temperature of 250 K that have energies between 3.451021 J and 3.501021 J. `
(a) Repeat Exercise 31.2, and convert the energy to joules or calories. (b) If all of this energy is converted to thermal energy in the gas, what is its temperature increase, assuming 50.0 cm3 of ideal gas at 0.250atm pressure? (The small answer is consistent with the fact that the energy is large on a quantum mechanical scale but small on a macroscopic scale.)

The probability of finding an N2 molecule at ambient temperature at 515 m/s is zero. True or False?
Rather than insisting that all the molecules be in the left half of a container, suppose we only require that they be in the leftmost 99% (leaving the remaining 1% completely empty). What is the probability of finding such an arrangement if there are 100 molecules in the container? What if there are 10,000 molecules? What if there are 1023 ?
The Type K thermocouple has a sensitivity of about 41 micro-Volts/℃, i.e. for each degree difference in the junction temperature, the output changes by 41 micro-Volts. If you have a 32-bit ADC, what is the smallest temperature change you can detect if the ADC range is 10 V? Try leaving the answer as a decimal with significant digits: e.g., 0.00004100.
A research group recently made an interesting discovery, while studying laser interactions with molecular gases. They found that nitrous oxide molecules (mass 44.013 g per mole) can reach temperatures exceeding 1,648 degrees Celsius after a interacting with a few closely-spaced (in time) laser pulses. At this temperature, what is the rms speed (in m/s) of a nitrous oxide molecule?
