Chapter 12, Problem 24P
Under pressure, liquid helium can solidify as each atom bonds with four others, and each bond has an average energy of 1.74 × 10–23 J. Find the latent heat of fusion for helium in joules per gram. (The molar mass of He is 4.00 g/mol.)

The active element of a certain laser is made of a glass rod 30.0 cm long and 1.50 cm in diameter. Assume the average coefficient of linear expansion of the glass is 9.00 × 10–6 (°C)–1. If the temperature of the rod increases by 65.0°C, what is the increase in (a) its length, (b) its diameter, and (c) its volume?
However, the molecule we can encounter everyday continuously vibrates and interact with the surrounding causing its bond vector to vary slightly. According to a new spectroscopy analysis, the adjacent bond vectors was found to be
A = 0.82i + 0.99j + 0.84k
B = 1.09i + -1.01j + -0.97k
What is the angle (in degrees) between the bonds based on this new data?
at the temperature T=0 C, an aluminum ring has a circumference C=15cm whereas an iron cylinder has a circumference c= 15.05cm. what is the minimum common temperature we need to raise both metals to so that the cylinder can pass through the ring?
(use for beta Al = 24*10-6 C-1 and beta Fe = 11*10-6 C-1 )
