A company that manufacturers gas cylinder is interested in assessing the relationship between pressure dependent variable and volume of the gas independent variable. The table below gives experimental values of pressure of a given mass of gas corresponding to various of the volume. According to the thermodynamic principles, the relationship be of the form of
PVy=C
where y and C are constants
Volume 53.3 61.8 72.4 88.7 119 194
Pressure 61.2 49.5 37.6 28.4 19.2 10
Find the values y and c that best fit the data
To measure the density of a stone, a digital scale and a beaker cup filled with water are used. The balance is used to measure the mass of the stone, while the beaker is used to measure the volume of the stone. It is known that the digital balance has a resolution of 0.1 g and that the beaker cup has a resolution of 5 ml. Repeated mass measurements return the following values: 250.0 g; 249.9 g; 250.3 g; 249.6g; 250.1 g; 249.7g; 250.4 g; 250.0 g; 248.8 g; 250.2 g The volume is measured only once. Placing the stone in the beaker, a volume of displaced water equal to 50 ml is measured. Using a k=2.5, check if the density of the stone is compatible or out of line with the value ρ = (4910 ± 65) kg.m-3
(a) none of the above
(b) the values are compatible
(c) missing data to perform the compatibility test
(d) the values are discrepant
