Chapter 18, Problem 15P

A volumetric flask made of Pyrex is calibrated at 20.0°C. It is filled to the 100-mL mark with 35.0°C acetone. After the flask is filled, the acetone cools and the flask warms so that the combination of acetone and flask reaches a uniform temperature of 32.0°C. The combination is then cooled back to 20.0°C. (a) What is the volume of the acetone when it cools to 20.0°C? (b) At the temperature of 32.0°C, does the level of acetone lie above or below the 100-mL mark on the flask? Explain.

An aluminum cup of 61 cm3 capacity is completely filled with glycerin at 22°C. How much glycerin will spill out of the cup if the temperature of both the cup and glycerin is increased to 41°C? (The linear expansion coefficient of aluminum is 23 × 10-6 1/C°. The coefficient of volume expansion of glycerin is 5.1 × 10-4 1/C°.)
A tire is filled with air at 15 degree C to a gauge pressure of 230kPa. If the tire reaches a temperature of 38 degree C, what fraction of the original air must be removed if the original pressure of 230 kPa is to be maintained?
An ideal gas is enclosed in a constant volume container at a pressure of 0.7 atm and an initial temperature of 100 C. The pressure is then decreased to 0.512 atm with a temperature of 37 C. If the pressure is then decreased again to 0.34 atm what is the final temperature?
