A bicycle tire has a pressure of 7.00105N/m2 at a temperature of 18.0C and contains 2.00L of gas. What will its pressure be if you let out an amount of air that has a volume of 100cm3 at atmospheric pressure? Assume tire temperature and volume remain constant.
Starting with Equation 18.11, show that the total pressure P in a container filled with a mixture of several ideal gases is P=P1+P2+P3+, where P1,P2, are the pressures that each gas would exert if it alone filled the container. (These individual pressures are called the partial pressures of the respective gases.) This result is known as Daltons law of partial pressures.
Suppose a gasfilled incandescent light bulb is manufactured so that the gas inside the bulb is at atmospheric pressure when the bulb has a temperature of 20.0C. (a) Find the gauge pressure inside such a bulb when it is hot, assuming its average temperature is 60.0C (an approximation) and neglecting any change in volume due to thermal expansion or gas leaks. (b) The actual final pressure for the light bulb will be less than calculated in part (a) because the glass bulb will expand. What will the actual final pressure be, taking this into account? Is this a negligible difference?
Two small containers, each with a volume of 1.00 102cm3, contain helium gas at 0C and 1.00 atm pressure. The two containers are joined by a small open tube of negligible volume, allowing gas to flow from one container to the other. What common pressure will exist in the two containers if the temperature of one container is raised to 1.00 102 C while the other container is kept at 0C?
The pressure gauge on a lank registers the gauge pressure, which is the difference between the interior pressing and exterior pressure. When the lank is full of oxygen (O2), it contains 12.0 kg of the gas at a gauge pressure of 40.0 atm. Determine the mass of oxygen that has been withdrawn from the tank when the pressure reading is 25.0 atm. Assume the temperature of the tank remains constant.
How do gases differ from liquids?
A bicycle tire contains 2.00 L of gas at an absolute pressure of 7.00105 N/m2 and a temperature of 18.0 . What will its pressure be if you let out an amount of air that has a volume of 100cm3 at atmospheric pressure? Assume tire temperature and volume remain constant.
A helium-filled toy balloon has a gauge pressure of 0.200 atm and a volume of 10.0 L. How much greater is the internal energy of the helium in the balloon than it would be at zero gauge pressure?
Under what circumstances would you expect a gas to behave significantly differently than predicted by the ideal gas law?
People buying food in sealed bags at high elevations often notice that the bags are puffed up because the air inside has expanded. A bag of pretzels was packed at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 22.0 . When opened at a summer picnic in Santa Fe, New Mexico, at a temperature of 32.0 , the volume of the air in the bag is 1.38 times its original volume. What is the pressure of the air?
The most probable speed for molecules of a gas at 296 K is 263 m/s. What is the molar mass of the gas? (You might like to figure out what the gas is likely to be.)
How is momentum related to the pressure exerted by a gas? Explain on the atomic and molecular level, considering the behavior of atoms and molecules.
