An isothermal change has to be carried out very slowly. Explain why this is the case.
Use data from the graph and the ideal gas equation to calculate the number of moles
of gas in the sample.
20.) What is the equivalent pressure for a saturated liquid-vapor mixture of T=130 C and x = 0.6
24.) Say a fuel of a car holds 60L of gasoline (SGgasoline=0.74). What is the weight of the gasoline in the tank?
26.) Determine the internal energy of compressed liquid at P= 5000 psia and T = 320℃
A) Sketch three isotherms to represent an ideal gas at three different temperatures, where T1>T2>T3.
B) Using the previous problem, illustrate how attractive or repulsive force (which causes non-ideal behavior) affects the isotherm at one of the temperatures. Also indicate the corresponding compression factor Z values
* Create 2 axes that show x-axis labeled as 1/V (K) and y-axis labeled as P

- Part A Some tire stores claim that filling your car tires with pure, dry nitrogen is much better than using plain air. They make the following claims. 1. The pressure inside N₂-filled tires does not rise or fall with temperature changes. 2. Nitrogen leaks out of tires much more slowly than air because the N₂ molecules are bigger. 3. Nitrogen is not very reactive, and moisture and O₂ in air cause corrosion that shortens tire life by 25-30% Evaluate the claim as a whole. Check all that apply. Claim passes falsifiability test.
