Steel coated with a thin layer of ceramic to help protect against corrosion. What do you expect to happen to the coating when the temperature of steel is increased significantly? Explain this behavior and relate it with the role of the bonding energy of the atoms.
3. Solid molecular hydrogen. For H₂ one finds from measurements on the gas that the
Lennard-Jones parameters are & = 50×10-¹6 erg_and o = 2.96 Å. Find the cohesive
energy in kJ per mole of H₂; do the calculation for an fcc structure. Treat each H₂
molecule as a sphere. The observed value of the cohesive energy is 0.751 kJ/mol.,
much less than we calculated, so that quantum corrections must be very important.

- Post-Lab Question: You are asked to construct a 1.00kg cube made of aluminum, and a 1.00kg cube made of brass. What side length should each cube have to produce the desired mass of 1.00kg?arrow_forward3) Normally, when the temperature of a solid, liquid, or gas increases, it expands, i.e., its volume V increases (and its mass density: ρ = m /V decreases). Because of its relatively strong hydrogen bonds, water ice forms an orderly, hexagonal lattice structure that requires the molecules to be about 9% further apart than when in the liquid phase, which means ice floats on water. From 0 °C to 4 °C, a few neighboring water molecules still remain in this structure, with an increasing amount of single molecules floating about freely. Therefore, ice sinks in water. Therefore, water starts to freeze at absolute zero (0 K). Thus, water never completely melts until it starts boiling. Thus, there is no aquatic life in lakes that freeze during the winter. This leads to the unusual behavior of water to increase its density when warming in the above temperature range.arrow_forwardDescribe the strategy for calculating the ratio of numbers of Molecules near given Speeds?arrow_forward
