If we have 16.42L of O2 gas at STP, how many moles of this gas do we have? Note: it is understood that the unit of your answer is some number of moles, however do not explicitly include units in your answer. Enter only a number. If you do enter a unit ("mol" in this case), you answer will be counted wrong. (STP means "standard temperature and pressure," which is 1 atmosphere of pressure or 101,325 Pa, and 273K).
For a one-dimensional problem of a gas medium confined between two parallel plates, determine the direct exchange factor gig; (i.e., per unit area), where medium zone i is an infinitely large slab of thickness Az (located between z, sz s zi + Az), and j is another medium zone (located at z, sz s 2; + Az).

Answer please
The Dieterici equation of state is similar to the van der Waals equation in that they both employ gas-specific constants a and b to attempt to account for the interaction between molecules and the nonzero volume of the individual molecules of gas. However, the Dieterici equation of state has a significantly different functional form: P(V – b) = RTe-a/(rVT) Note that a and b are constants (n is implicitly constant as volume is expressed as molar volume). What are the following partial derivatives for the Diererici equation of state? ӘР a) b) ƏP. T

What properties of a nonideal gas do the van der Waals constants a and b represent?
Problem II There is a piece of 10 mm thick a-iron plate. This plate initially has hydrogen uniformly distributed inside with an initial concentration Co. Assume that there is no hydrogen in the air. The plate is left in the air and the hydrogen concentration varies with the time as follows: 4Co C(x, t) = (-9n²Dt\ 12 3nx sin еxp where / is the thickness of the plate. If we would like to remove 95% of the hydrogen from the plate, how long will it take when the plate is at 25 °C? The pre-exponential and activation energy for hydrogen in a-iron are 0.1 mm/s and 13,400 J/mol, respectively.
The average translational kinetic energy for a molecule (Erans) is given by the following equation: Etrans =mv? Where m is the mass of the molecule and v? is the average of the square of the velocity. Given v2 = 3kT/m where k is the Boltzmann's constant, calculate the ratio of the kinetic energies at 200 °C and 100 °C
Calculate the average volume per molecule for an ideal gas at room temperature and atmospheric pressure. Then take the cube root to get an estimate of the average distance between molecules. How does this distance compare to the size of a small molecule like N2 or H20?
