- Betong devises a customized temperature scale that assigns a temperature reading of 24 to the normal melting point of gold (1063°C) and a temperature reading of 299 to its boiling point (2808CC). What temperature on the Betong scale corresponds to absolute zero of temperature? Absolute zero in Celsius scale is -273°C. Round off answer to the nearest whole number. OB ANSWER:arrow_forwardA new linear temperature scale, degrees Zunzol (*Z), is based on the freezing point and boiling point of a newly discovered compound zunzol. The freezing point of zunzol, –117.3 °C, is defined as 0 °Z, and the boiling point of zunzol, 78.4 °C, is defined as 100 °Z. What is the freezing point of water in degrees Zunzol? freezing point: °Z What is the boiling point of water in degrees Zunzol? boiling point: °Zarrow_forwardProblem 1. Mercury (Hg) is used to measure temperatures due to its large volume expansivity. If the volume of Hg contained in a thermometer expanded from 0.7 cm³ at 10 °C to 0.707 cm³. What temperature should you read from the thermometer? The volume expansivity for mercury is: B= 181 x106/K.

The pressure of the gas inside the thermometer is 254.0 kPa when the thermometer is in contact with boiling water. The boiling water is under regular atmospheric pressure. What is the temperature of the thermometer, when it reads a pressure of 494.0 kPa? Submit Answer Tries 0/12arrow_forwardA 10-kg chunk of ice at -30°C is mixed with 0.726 kg of water at 50°C. Find the temperature of the resulting mixture, assuming no heat gain or loss with the environment. Express your answer in degrees Celsius. (What can I use to solve this equation?)

- A student constructs a simple constant volume gas thermometer and calibrates it using the boiling point of water, 100°C, and the freezing point of a specific brine solution, -21°C. The pressures measured at the calibration points are 1.366 atm and 0.9267 atm, respectively. From these data, what temperature will the student calculate, in degrees Celsius, for the value of absolute zero? T =arrow_forwardB. i. State the assumption of the kinetic theory of a gas that addresses molecular movement. ii. Given that: 3/2 kT = ½ m, where T = molecular temperature in kelvin and = molecular mean-square speed, sketch a general graph of T versus molecular root means square speed (c²>). jii. Given that for an ideal gas: PV = nRT, sketch a general graph of P versus T.arrow_forwardSuppose a walrus transfers energy by conduction through its blubber at the rate of 125 W when immersed in -1.25°C water. The walrus’s internal core temperature is 37.0°C, and it has a surface area of 1.85 m2. Chart attached. What is the average thickness of its blubber, in centimeters, which has the conductivity of fatty tissue?arrow_forward
- The normal freezing point of a certain liquid X is - 5.90 °C, but when 43. g of zinc chloride (ZnCl,) are dissolved in 400. g of X the solution freezes at -7.2 °C instead. Use this information to calculate the molal freezing point depression constant K, of X. Be sure your answer is rounded to the correct number of significiant digits. °C·kg K, = 0 molarrow_forwardQuestion 1. The table below shows a collection of data for a thermocouple. Temperature is in degrees Celsius, and the Voltage is in millivolts. (a) Plot the graph using rectangular graph paper with Temperature as the independent variable and determine the basic functional relationship between Temperature and Voltage. Alternatively, you can use Microsoft Excel to plot the data, but attach the graph in your answer page. (b) Determine specific the equation, using the method of selected points that best fits the data. Show how you determined the equation.
