A rigid container contains a mixture of 2mols of a polyatomic gas at a temperature of 3000K. You then heat the mixture providing 39907.02J of heat. At the end of the process, the mixture is at a temperature of 3600K. If at 3000K the translational as well as the 3 rotational degrees of freedom of the polyatomic gas are already activated, how many vibrational degrees of freedom does it have activated in this temperature range? (Assume the number of degrees of freedom does not change during the process).

A rigid container contains a mixture of 2 moles of a monoatomic gas with 1 mol of a polyatomic gas at a temperature of 3000 K. You then heat the mixture by supplying 39907.2 J of heat. At the end of the process, the mixture is at a temperature of 3600 K. If at 3000 K the translational as well as the 3 rotational degrees of freedom of the polyatomic gas are already activated, how many vibrational degrees of freedom does it have activated in this temperature range? (assume that the number of degrees of freedom does not change during the process) If necessary, consider: R = 8.314 J/mol∙K1 cal = 4.19 Jkb =1,38 x 10⁻²³ m² kg s⁻² K⁻¹

Consider 1.5 mol of pure nitrogen gas N2 which we will treat as a diatomic ideal gas. From 100 K to 1000 K, the gas has three translational and two rotational degrees of freedom. Above 1000 K, there are two additional vibrational degrees of freedom. The molar mass of N2 is 0.028 kg/mol. a. If the nitrogen molecules have an rms translational molecular speed of 511 m/s, what is the temperature of the gas? b. What is the internal energy U of the nitrogen gas at the temperature from part a? c. If the nitrogen gas has a pressure of 1.2 atm, what volume (in liters) does it occupy at the temperature from part a? d How much heat would be required to raise the temperature of the gas from 1500 K to 1800 K, at a constant volume? Remember that vibrational degrees of freedom are active at these temperatures.

To give a helium atom nonzero angular momentum requires about 21.2 eV of energy (that is, 21.2 eV is the difference between the energies of the lowest-energy or ground state and the lowest-energy state with angular momentum). The electron-volt or eV is defined as 1.60 × 10−19 J. Find the temperature T where this amount of energy equals kB T/2. Does this explain why we can ignore the rotational energy of helium for most purposes? (The results for other monatomic gases, and for diatomic gases rotating around the axis connecting the two atoms, have comparable orders of magnitude.)
The only form of energy possessed by molecules of a monatomic ideal gas is translational kinetic energy. From kinetic, the average kinetic energy per molecule is KEmolecule = 3 2 kBT = 3 2 R NA T Use these results to show that the internal energy of a monatomic ideal gas at pressure P and occupying volume V may be written as U = 3 2 PV.
