Chapter 3, Problem 3.46P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

A formula for the density of the block should be derived.

Concept introduction:

It is given that a rectangular block floats at the interface between two immiscible liquids. The dimensions of the block are given as follows,

Height of the block = L

Cross sectional area of the block = A

Density of the light liquid = ρ1

Density of the heavy liquid = ρ2

Height from top surface of light liquid to the top surface of the block = h0

Height from the top of the block to the liquids interface = h1

Height from liquid interface to the bottom of block = h2

Archimedes' principle,

According to Archimedes principle the upward buoyant force that is exerted on a body immersed in a fluid, is equal to the weight of the fluid that the body displaces.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

Prove that the two approaches used to balance force on the block are correct.

At 39.9 ◦C, a mixture of ethanol (x1 = 0.9060, p1 = 130.4 Torr) and isooctane ( p2 = 43.9 Torr) forms a vapor phase with molar fraction y1 = 0.6667 at a total pressure of 185.9 Torr. (a) Calculate the activity and activity coefficient of each component. (b) Calculate the total vapor pressure that the mixture would have if it were ideal.
In the determination of molar mass of an unknown substance by ebullioscopic constant, 30 mL of acetone (C3H6O) was placed in a test tube with thermometer and glass tubing and subjected to water bath. Upon boiling, the temperature reads 56 degC. For the boiling point of unknown-acetone solution, you prepared the solution by mixing 1.60 g of unknown solute in the 30 mL acetone and subjected it again to water bath. The boiling temperature of the solution is 56.68 degC. The density of acetone = 0.9849 g/mL and the Kb of acetone = 1.67 degC/kg. How many moles of solute is present in the solution? Final answer must be rounded off to 2 decimal places, and shall NOT have any units.
