A flask made of Pyrex is calibrated at 20.0°C. It is filled to the 100-mL mark on the flask with 35.0°C acetone. (a) What is the volume of the acetone when both it and the flask cool to 20.0°C? (b) Would the temporary increase in the Pyrex flask’s volume make an appreciable difference in the answer? Why or why not?

Two glass bulbs of volumes 500 cm3 and 200 cm3 are connected by a narrow tube of negligible volume. The apparatus is filled with air and sealed. The initial pressure of the air is 1.0 105 Pa, and the initial temperature is 17C. The smaller bulb is immersed in a large amount of ice at 0C, and the larger bulb is immersed in a large pot of boiling water at a temperature of 100C for a long period of time. Determine the final pressure of the air in the bulbs. Ignore any change in the volume of the glass. Model the air as an ideal gas.

The tube in a heat exchanger has a 2-in inner diameter and a 3-in outer diameter. The thermal conductivity of the tube material is 0.5 Btu/h·ft·°F, while the inner surface heat transfer coefficient is 50 Btu/h·ft2·°F and the outer surface heat transfer coefficient is 10 Btu/h·ft2·°F.
