A cylinder is closed by a piston connected to a spring of constant 2.30 x 10³ N/m. With the spring relaxed, the cylinder is filled with 5.00 L of gas at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 20.0°C. (a) If the piston has a cross-sectional area of 0.0150 m² and negligible mass, how high will it rise when the temperature is raised to 250°C? (b) What is the pressure of the gas at 250°C? Pa

(a) The temperature of the gas in Container 1 is lower than the temperature of the gas in Container 2. (b) The temperature of the gas in Container 1 is greater than the temperature of the gas in Container 2. (c) The value of R for the gas in Container 1 is ½ the value of R for the gas in Container 2. (d) The rms speed of the gas molecules in Container 1 is lower than the rms speed of the gas molecules in Container 2. (e) The rms speed of the gas molecules in Container 1 is greater than the rms speed of the gas molecules in Container 2.
(a) A tank contains one mole of helium gas at a pressure of 6.35 atm and a temperature of 22.0°C. The tank (which has a fixed volume) is heated until the pressure inside triples. What is the final temperature of the gas? °C (b) A cylinder with a moveable piston contains one mole of helium, again at a pressure of 6.35 atm and a temperature of 22.0°C. Now, the cylinder is heated so that both the pressure inside and the volume of the cylinder double. What is the final temperature of the gas? °C
An automobile tire is inflated with air originally at 10.0°C and normal atmospheric pressure. During the process, the air is compressed to 27.0% of its original volume and the temperature is increased to 39.0°C. (a) What is the tire pressure in pascals? Pa (b) After the car is driven at high speed, the tire's air temperature rises to 85.0°C and the tire's interior volume increases by 3.00%. What is the new tire pressure (absolute) in pascals? Pa
Step 1 (a) The ideal-gas equation describes each condition of the air in the tire. We will set up ratios in order to describe these changes. Dividing the equations PV = nRT in the initial and final states, we have PfVf Tf P¡Vi Ti Solving for the final pressure in the tire, gives Pf = = = which gives I Tf P(V)() P₁ Vf T₁ = (1.013 x 105 Pa) x 105 Pa. Note that the volume V¡ cancels out of the equation. = Vf Po = Pr (V ( ) ( ) Pd Pf Vi V₁ Step 2 (b) After the car is driven, the temperature and volume of air in the tire have changed. Let Td be the temperature and Vd be the volume of air in the tire. We have PdVd Td PfVf Tf' x 105 Pa 273 + 273 + Vf Vf Again we see that the volume Vf cancels out of the equation. °C K °℃ K = x 105 Pa.
