b)
A car tire is filled with air to 33 psi at 295 K.
i)
After a drive, the temperature inside of the tire rises to 318 K due to friction with the
road surface. If the tire volume is constant, what is the pressure (in psi)?
If the tire leaks 1.0 g of air per minute and the temperature is constant, how many
minutes will it take for the tire to reach the original pressure of 33 psi (molecular mass
of air= 28.8 g/mol).
Define absolute zero temperature.
A sample of hydrogen gas is produced in a chemical reaction at 21.0 °C, where the hydrogen
bubbles through water before being collected. Measured from the barometer, the
atmospheric pressure of the wet gas in this experiment is 750.1 mmHg. Calculate the

- Chlorofluorocarbons such as CCl3F and CCl2F2 have been linked to ozone depletion in Antarctica. In 1994, these gases were found in quantities of 261 and 509 parts per trillion by volume (World Resources Institute, World resources 1996–97). Compute the molar concentration of these gases under conditions typical of (a) the mid-latitude troposphere (10 °C and 1.0 atm) and (b) the Antarctic stratosphere (200 K and 0.050 atm). Hint: The composition of a mixture of gases can be described by imagining that the gases are separated from one another in such a way that each exerts the same pressure. If one gas is present at very low levels it is common to express its concentration as, for example, ‘x parts per trillion by volume’. Then the volume of the separated gas at a certain pressure is x × 10−12 of the original volume of the gas mixture at the same pressure.
