Estimate the time needed for a glycine molecule (see Table 13−413−4 in the textbook) to diffuse a distance of 27 μmμm in water at 20 ∘C∘C if its concentration varies over that distance from 1.16 mol/m3mol/m3 to 0.40 mol/m3mol/m3 . Compare this "speed" to its rms (thermal) speed. The molecular mass of glycine is about 75 u. vdiffusevrmsvdiffusevrms =
A box contains N molecules. Consider two configurations:configuration A with an equal division of the molecules betweenthe two halves of the box, and configuration B with 60.0% of themolecules in the left half of the box and 40.0% in the right half. ForN = 50, what are (a) the multiplicity WA of configuration A, (b) themultiplicityWB of configuration B, and (c) the ratio fB/A of the timethe system spends in configuration B to the time it spends in configurationA? For N = 100, what are (d) WA, (e) WB, and (f) fB/A?For N = 200, what are (g) WA, (h) WB, and (i) fB/A? ( j) With increasingN, does f increase, decrease, or remain the same?
Determine how many times per second each molecule moving with rms speed would move back and forth across a 6.6 mm-long room on average, assuming it made very few collisions with other molecules.To find Vx use the equation v^2=v^2x+v^2y+v^2zand the fact that molecules have no preferred direction.

- In the simple kinetic theory of a gas we discussed in class, the molecules are assumed to be point-like objects (without any volume) so that they rarely collide with one another. In reality, each molecule has a small volume and so there are collisions. Let's assume that a molecule is a hard sphere of radius r. Then the molecules will occasionally collide with each other. The average distance traveled between two successive collisions (called mean free path) is λ = V/(4π √2 r2N) where V is the volume of the gas containing N molecules.
