Concept explainers

Diatomic Gas

Molecule, is a collection of two or more atoms together (which constitute the smallest observable unit) into a pure material. There are some ways to represent the structure of a molecule. Factor symbols represent atoms in Lewis structures, and dots represent electrons that accompany them. A pair of mutual electrons (covalent bond) may be represented by a single dash. The ball-and-stick model depicts the spatial structure of the atoms better.

An air bubble starts rising from the bottom of a lake. Its diameter is 3.60 mm at the bottom and 4.00 mm at the surface. The depth of the lake is 2.50 m, and the temperature at the surface is 40.0C. What is the temperature at the bottom of the lake? Consider the atmospheric pressure to be 1.01 105 Pa and the density of water to be 1.00 103 kg/m3. Model the air as an ideal gas. 53. Use the ideal gas law for the bottom (point 1) and the surface (point 2) of the lake. At the surface, the pressure is atmospheric pressure. However, at the bottom it is equal to to the sum of the atmospheric pressure and the pressure due to 2.50 m column of water. P2=1.01105PaP1=P2+WghWP1=1.01105Pa+(1.00103kg/m3)(9.81m/s2)(2.50m) Use the ideal gas law (Eq. 19.17). T1=P1V1P2V2T2 The volume ratio at the bottom and top of the lake can be calculated with the diameters given.

An ideal gas is trapped inside a tube of uniform cross-sectional area sealed at one end as shown in Figure P19.49. A column of mercury separates the gas from the outside.

Find an expression (in terms of the parameters given) for the length L3 of the column of air in Figure P19.49C, when the tube is inclined at an angle with respect to the vertical. FIGURE P19.49
Case Study When a constant-volume thermometer is in thermal contact with a substance whose temperature is lower than the triple point of water, how does the right tube in Figure 19.22 need to be moved? Explain. FIGURE 19.22 1 Gas in the constant-volume gas thermometer is at Ti, and the mercury in the manometer is at height hi above the gasmercury boundary. 2 The thermometer is placed in thermal contact with an object, and its temperature increases. The increased temperature increases the gas volume. 3 By raising the right-hand tube of the mercury manometer, the gas volume is restored to its original size. The mercury is now at hi + h above the gasmercury boundary. This increase in height is a result of the increase in gas temperature and pressure.
