When water boils in a pot with a loose lid, the increased pressure forces the lid upward, releasing steam and reducing the pres- sure in the pot so that the lid drops back down. If the water continues to boil, the lid can rattle upward and downward. Consider a 1 L pot half filled with boiling water. In this case there is half a liter, or 1 mol, of air and steam above the water. (a) Estimate the mass of the lid. (b) When the water is rapidly boiling, estimate the height to which the lid jumps during a steam-release event. (c) By multiplying the weight of the lid by the height of the jump, estimate the work done by the steam as the lid moves upward. (d) Treat the process as adiabatic and use the first law of thermodynamics to estimate the drop in the temperature of the steam as it pushes the lid upward.

A nuclear power station is situated in Coal Valley, which is a roughly rectangular valley that is 5 km long, 2 km wide, and 200 m deep. You have been asked to evaluate the effects of a worst-case scenario where the reactor housing fails, and radiation is released to the atmosphere. In your evaluation, you determine that 120 kg of Iodine-131 (a radioisotope that causes thyroid gland and liver damage) could be released into the atmosphere. Assuming the release of Iodine-131 was very rapid and all of it was uniformly distributed through the valley’s atmosphere with none escaping the valley, what would the concentration of Iodine-131 be in the valley’s air? Your answer should be expressed in units of ppm(v), and you may assume an atmospheric pressure of 1.0 atm and a temperature of 20oC. 2. Assuming the Iodine-131 concentration you calculated in part (a) is the initial concentration in the valley, you now want to determine the time it will take for the concentration to decrease to…
