Chapter 6, Problem 91IAE
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The reason should be determined for the necessity to include the density of mercury liquid and acceleration due to gravity in the definition of millimeter of mercury.

Concept introduction:

Pressure is defined as the force exerted by a gas against the walls of container.The pressure is denoted with symbol "P". The common units which are used to measure pressure are atmosphere (atm), pascal (Pa) etc.

Describe in your own words the Kinetic Molecular Theory of gases. The Kinetic Molecular Theory of gases tells us that the energy content of any gas is related only to its temperature. It also tells us that it is possible to compute the "RMS" (root mean squared) velocity of any gas molecule if you know its formula weight and its temperature. Using this information describe how you might compute the RMS velocity of sulfur dioxide (SO2) in the atmosphere of the planet Venus (T = 820 F), the RMS velocity of oxygen (O2) in the atmosphere of Earth (T = 50 F), or the RMS velocity of carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere of Mars (T = - 80 F).
An atom of argon has a radius Ar = 71. pm and an average speed in the gas phase at 25°C of 249.m/s. Suppose the speed of an argon atom at 25°C has been measured to within 1.0%. Calculate the smallest possible length of box inside of which the atom could be known to be located with certainty. Write your answer as a multiple of Ar and round it to 2 significant figures. For example, if the smallest box the atom could be in turns out to be 42.0 times the radius of an atom of argon, you would enter "42. Ar" as your answer. Ar X ?
In a hydrochloric acid (HCl) molecule, the distance between the hydrogen atom and the chlorine atom is 1.27 × 10-10 meters. The mass of an hydrogen atom is 2 atomic mass units (amu) and the mass of a chlorine atom is 35 amu. How far from the hydrogen (H) atom is the center of mass of the molecule, in meters? Justify your answer using your equations and rationale used.
