A vertical cylindrical tank contains 1.80 mol of an ideal gas under a pressure of 0.300 atm at 20.0C. The round part of the tank has a radius of 10.0 cm, and the gas is supporting a piston that can move up and down in the cylinder without friction. There is a vacuum above the piston. (a) What is the mass of this piston? (b) How tall is the column of gas that is supporting the piston?

Many fish maintain buoyancy with a gas-filled swim bladder. The pressure inside the swim bladder is the same as the outside water pressure, so when a fish descends to a greater depth, the gas compresses. Adding gas to restore the original volume requires energy. A fish at a depth where the absolute pressure is 3.0 atm has a swim bladder with the desired volume of 5.0 × 10-4 m3. The fish now descends to a depth where the absolute pressure is 5.0 atm.a. The gas in the swim bladder is always the same temperatureas the fish’s body. What is the volume of the swim bladder at the greater depth?b. The fish remains at the greater depth, slowly adding gas to the swim bladder to return it to its desired volume. How much work is required?

A cylinder containing ideal gas is sealed by a piston that is above the gas. The piston is a cylindrical object, with a weight of 22.0 N, which can slide up or down in the cylinder without friction. The inner radius of the cylinder, and the radius of the piston, is 8.00 cm. The top of the piston is exposed to the atmosphere, and the atmospheric pressure is 101.3 kPa. The cylinder has a height of 30.0 cm, and, when the temperature of the gas is 20°C, the bottom of the piston is 11.0 cm above the bottom of the cylinder. (A) Find the number of moles of ideal gas in the cylinder. (B) Heat is added, gradually raising the temperature of the gas to 160°C. Calculate the distance between the bottom of the cylinder and the bottom of the piston when the piston comes to its new equilibrium position.
