- An ideal gas at 14.7 °C and a pressure of 2.92 x 105 Pa occupies a volume of 3.40 m³. (a) How many moles of gas are present? (b) If the volume is raised to 5.33 m³ and the temperature raised to 31.0 °C, what will be the pressure of the gas? (a) Number Units (b) Number Unitsarrow_forwardA metal rod had a coefficient of linear expansion α = 1.5 x 10-5 1/K. It has a starting length of 210 cm. When the temperature changes from 25 °C to 55 °C, by how much does the length of the rod change, in cm?arrow_forwardA shipment from Earth to Mars contains a 50 gallon [gal] tank filled with an ideal gas. The molecular weight of the ideal gas is 15.9 grams per mole [g/mol]. NASA tells the astronauts on Mars that the tank and gas combined had an initial total mass of 5 kilograms [kg] and the pressure was 3 atmospheres [atm] before it left the Earth. During the trip, the temperature was kept constant at 20 degrees Celsius [°C]. When it arrives on Mars, the astronauts check the sensors and discover the pressure is 2.2 atmospheres [atm] and the temperature is 20 degrees Celsius [°C]. Based on this information, the astronauts determine that some of the gas leaked during shipment. Determine how much gas leaked from the tank in units of grams [g]. Gravity on Mars = 3.71 meters per second squared[m/s2].arrow_forward
- If a 0.69 km (at -12°C ) section of straight railroad track made of steel is assumed to behave as a single piece, what is the difference in the length of the track between a cold winter day (-12°C) and a hot summer day (+38°C)? The coefficient of linear expansion (α) of steel is 1.2 × 10-5 °C-1.[1 km = 1,000 m]arrow_forwardWhen the temperature of a coin is raised by 82 °F, the coin's diameter increases by 2.20 x 10-5 m. If the original diameter is 2.15 x 10-2 m, find the coefficient of linear expansion.arrow_forwardIf you have 6 moles of a diatomic ideal gas (such as oxygen or nitrogen), how much heat is required to raise the temperature of this gas from 261.5K to 282K if the volume of the gas remains constant during the heating?arrow_forward
- During an all-night cram session, a student heats up a 0.807 liter (0.807 x 10- 3 m3) glass (Pyrex) beaker of cold coffee. Initially, the temperature is 15.5 °C, and the beaker is filled to the brim. A short time later when the student returns, the temperature has risen to 98.0 °C. The coefficient of volume expansion of coffee is the same as that of water. How much coffee (in cubic meters) has spilled out of the beaker?arrow_forwardA glass tube of radius 0.80 cm contains liquid mercury to a depth of 64.0 cmat 12˚C. Find the depth of the mercury column at 100˚C. Assume that the linear expansion coefficient of the glass is 10x10-6 K-1and the linear expansion coefficient of mercury is 0.61x10-4 K-1.arrow_forward
