Chapter 1, Problem 1.58QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The temperature at which the numerical reading on a Celsius thermometer equal that on a Fahrenheit thermometer has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Kelvin scale:

  • The absolute temperature scale is called as Kelvin scale.
  • The smallest temperature by theoretical is 0K, it is known as the absolute zero temperature.
  • The relationship between degrees Celsius and Kelvin is given by the equation given below:

K=oC+273.15

  • Conversion of temperature units in between degree Celsius and Kelvin is given by

Conversion of oFintooC:oC=(oF-32oF)×5oC9oFConversion of oCintooF:oF=(oC×9oF5oC)+32oF

Answer to Problem 1.58QP

The temperature at which the numerical reading on a Celsius thermometer equal that on a Fahrenheit thermometer is 40.

Explanation of Solution

Different units are there to represent temperature scales.

Conversion of temperature units in between degree Celsius and Kelvin is given by

Conversion of oFintooC:oC=(oF-32oF)×5oC9oFConversion of oCintooF:oF=(oC×9oF5oC)+32oF

oF=(oC×9oF5oC)+32oFoC=(oF-32)×5/9

oC=(oC×9/5)+32oC(oC×9/5)=324/5×oC=32oC=32×(5/4)oC=40

Thus the temperature at which the numerical reading on a Celsius thermometer equal that on a Fahrenheit thermometer is 40

Conclusion

The temperature at which the numerical reading on a Celsius thermometer equal that on a Fahrenheit thermometer was calculated.

A. B. b. Now consider the two bicyclic molecules A. and B. Note that A. is a dianion and B. is a neutral molecule. One of these molecules is a highly reactive compound first characterized in frozen noble gas matrices, that self-reacts rapidly at temperatures above liquid nitrogen temperature. The other compound was isolated at room temperature in the early 1960s, and is a stable ligand used in organometallic chemistry. Which molecule is the more stable molecule, and why?
