Pre-lab 8: Cold EngineThe experimental setup for this week's lab consists of a syringe connected to a metal can (reservoir), a cold bath (water -ice mixture) and a "hot" bath (water at room temperature). A schematics of the syringe - reservoir system is shown below.Plunger ofmass mFilled withgas (air)Syringe ofvolume Vcor VH- Volume Vo includes tube + Metal can-Metal can submergedin water of temperatureТсorTH.TubeStopperFigure 1: Schematic of the syringe - reservoir system. The syringe is essentially a glass cylinder fitted with a movable piston(plunger). The markings on the syringe indicate the volume of gas in the syringe, but do not include the additional, unknownvolume, Vo, in the gas can and tubing. Problem 1 (Part 2.1 in the lab handout):Consider the syringe mounted horizontally. When the metal can is immersed in the cold bath, the temperature is To andthe total volume of gas is Vc + Vo, where Vc is the volume in the syringe while in the cold bath (see Fig. 1). So we can writethe ideal gas law as:Patm (Vc + Vo) = NkTc = nRTc(1)Write down a similar equation for when the can is immersed in the hot bath. Using the two expressions, prove that:Vo =VHTC - VCTHTH-TC(2where TH and VH refer to the hot state.
