Assume that a cold Alaskan river runs into the Bering Sea and that the river has a temperature of 4° Celsius. What is the density of the river in g/cm3? 1.024 10 104 M
Use table 6.1: The vapor pressure of water at various temperatures to answer the questions below.a. Water boils at sea level (Patm = 760 torr) at 100°C. Estimate the temperature (in °C) at which water boils in Johnstown if the atmospheric pressure (Patm) is 701 torr.b. If you hang wet sheets outside on a clothesline on a sunny winter day when the temperature is 0°C, they will eventually dry. Explain why using the table above. T (°C) Pvp (mmHg) T (°C) Pvp (mmHg) T (°C) Pvp (mmHg) T (°C) Pvp (mmHg) -10 2.15 50 92.51 92 566.59 97.5 694.47 0 4.58 60 149.38 93 588.24 98 707.20 10 9.21 70 233.17 94 610.59 98.5 720.12 20 17.54 80 354.53 95 633.64 99 733.25 30 31.82 90 525.27 96 657.41 99.5 750.93 40 55.32 91 545.60 97 681.93 100 760.00
The combined gas law PV=nRT is a very useful equation. From the equation one can see the relationships between the variables. Scenario: I just climbed to the top of mount Everest and it is a beautiful day. For a celebration I want to eat a dehydrated meal with raw chicken. This is safe to do so?  Questions to think about: What pressure is present on the top of Mt. Everest? Greater or less than the pressure at sea level? How does that relate to temperature? What temperature will water boil at the top of Mt. Everest? Will that temperature be hot enough to cook the raw chicken?
