The reaction rate for the prepupal development of male Drosophila is temperature-dependent. Assuming that the reaction rate is exponential as in R x e-bdlCB!) , the activation energy for this development is 3.01 x 10-19 J. A Drosophila is originally at 20.10°C, and its temperature is increasing. If the rate of development has increased 3.50%, how much has its temperature increased? The value of the Boltzmann constant is 1.381 x 10-23 J/K (see Table B.1). °C

On a hot summer day, the density of air at atmospheric pressure at 35 °C is 1.1455 kg/m3. What is the number of moles contained in 1 m3 of ideal gas at this temperature and pressure? Avogadro’s number of air molecules has a mass of 2.85×10-2kg. what is the mass of 1 m3 of air? Does the value calculated in part (B) agree with the stated density of air at this temperature?
A research group recently made an interesting discovery, while studying laser interactions with molecular gases. They found that nitrous oxide molecules (mass 44.013 g per mole) can reach temperatures exceeding 1,648 degrees Celsius after a interacting with a few closely-spaced (in time) laser pulses. At this temperature, what is the rms speed (in m/s) of a nitrous oxide molecule?
Suppose that the root-mean-square velocity vms of water molecules (molecular mass is equal to 18.0 g/mol) in a flame is found to be 1350 m/s. What temperature T does this represent? The Boltzmann constant is k = 1.38 x 10-23 J/K and Avogadro's number is NA = 6.022 x 1023 mol-'. T = K
An automobile tire contains 0.038 m² of air at a gauge pressure of 2.41 × 10³ N/m2. The composition of air is about 78% nitrogen (N2) and 21% oxygen (O2), both diatomic molecules. How much more internal energy, in joules, does the air in the tire have than the same volume of air has at zero gauge pressure outside the tire? Emt,2 - Ent,1 J
A car tire contains 0.034m^3 of air at a gauge pressure of 2.76x10^5 N/m^2. The composition of air is about 78% nitrogen (N2) and 21% oxygen (O2), both diatomic molecules. How much more internal energy, in joules, does the air in the tire have than the same volume of air has at zero gauge pressure outside the tire? Eint,2 - Eint,1 = _____
Interstellar space is quite different from the gaseous environments we commonly encounter on Earth. For instance, a typical density of the medium is about 1 atom cm−3 and that atom is typically H; the effective temperature due to stellar background radiation is about 10 kK. Estimate the diffusion coefficient and thermal conductivity of H under these conditions. Compare your answers with the values for gases under typical terrestrial conditions. Comment: Energy is in fact transferred much more effectively by radiation.
An SUV tire contains 0.037 m3 of air at a gauge pressure of 2.61 × 105 N/m2. The composition of air is about 78% nitrogen (N2) and 21% oxygen (O2), both diatomic molecules. How much more internal energy, in joules, does the air in the tire have than the same volume of air has at zero gauge pressure outside the tire? Einternal,2−Einternal,1 = ? Hints: -Assume not only equal volumes but also equal temperatures.-Since the temperature is constant, what must be changing in this process?-The heat capacity, and thus the internal energy, depends upon whether gas is monatomic or diatomic.
