According to the Ideal Gas Law, PV = kT, where P is pressure, V is volume, T is temperature (in kelvins), and k is a constant of proportionality. A tank contains 400 cubic inches of nitrogen at a pressure of 130 pounds per square inch and a temperature of 300 K. (a) Determine k.k = (b) Write P as a function of V and T and describe the level curves.P = (c) Setting P = c, the level curves are of the form V =
Let’s assume dry air behaves like an ideal gas and has a molar mass of 28.8 g/mol.a) What is the approximate density of dry air at sea level when the air temperature is 32°C? Hint: How is the unit of standard atmosphere (symbol atm) defined?b) Briefly show and/or explain why this assumption for the molar mass of dry air is reasonable.c) Briefly show and/or explain how the density of air would change with increasing humidity.
Charles’s law states that if the pressure of a dry gas is held constant, then the volume VV of the gas and its temperature TT, measured in degrees Kelvin, satisfy the relationship V=cTV=cT, where cc is a constant. Which of the following best describes the relationship between the rate of change, with respect to time tt, of the volume and the rate of change, with respect to time tt, of the temperature?
A 4.00-m-long cylinder of solid aluminum has a radius of 2.00 cm. 1)If the cylinder is initially at a temperature of 5.00∘C, how much will the length change when the temperature rises to 30.0°C? (Express your answer to three significant figures.) 2)Due to the temperature increase, by how much (in %) would the density of the aluminum cylinder decrease? (Express your answer to three significant figures.) 3)By what percentage does the volume of the cylinder increase? (Express your answer to three significant figures.)
Hi, could I get some help with this macro-connection physics problem involving the Ideal Gas Law? The set up is: What is the average volume in nm3 (cubic nanometers) taken up by molecules of an ideal gas at room temperature (taken as 300 K), and 1 atm of pressure or 101325 N/m2 to 4 digits of precision if kB = 1.38e-23 J/K and 1 nm = 10-9 m? Thank you.
In the text, it was shown that N/V=2.681025m3 for gas at STP. (a) Show that this quantity is equivalent to N/V=2.681019cm3, as stated. (b) About how many atoms are mere in one m3 (a cubic micrometer) at STP? (c) What does your answer to part (b) imply about the separation of Mama and molecules?
As part of a biology field trip, you have taken an equal-arm balance (Fig. P1. 14) to the beach. Your plan was to measure the masses of various mollusks, but you forgot to bring along your set of Standard gram masses. You notice that the beach is full of pebbles. Although there are variations in color, texture, and shape, you wonder whether you can somehow use the pebbles as a Standard mass set. Develop a procedure for assembling a Standard mass set from the pebbles on the beach. Describe your procedure step by step so that someone else could follow it.
A triple-point cell such as the one shown in Figure 19.20 (page 571) is constructed and calibrated at sea level. It is then shipped to Denver, which is 1 mi above sea level. Can the researchers in the Denver lab use the triple-point cell just as in a laboratory at sea level, or will special adjustments be needed? Explain.
I've uploaded these questions a few times now as I'm a little confused about its dependent & independent variables these are the two Answer I've received back Answer 1. The dependent variables are Pressure→P volume→ (V) No. of moles→ n arbitrary constants a and b varies gas to gas. Independent variable: R→Universal gas constant Answer 2. Dependent variable: V,T,P. Independent Variable a,b,n,R I would like to know detailed reasoning behind these variables in these 2 answers and which one is the correct answer and also if there is a 3rd answer please let me know the reasoning behind that as well as solve the rest of the question.
