Question
Chapter 10, Problem 8QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The atmospheric pressure in a mine, which is situated 500 m below the sea level is greater or less than 1 atm is to be determined.
Concept introduction:
In the physical sense, pressure is the force applied per unit area and its common unit is
The expression for pressure is as follows:
As we go above the sea level, the density of the atmosphere decreases resulting in the low atmospheric pressure at higher altitudes.
As we go below the sea level, the density of the atmosphere increases resulting in high atmospheric pressure below the sea levels.

An open vessel containing water stands in a laboratory measuring 5.0 m x 5.0 m x 3.0 m at 25 °C ; the vapor pressure (vp) of water at this temperature is 3.2 kPa. When the system has come to equilibrium, what mass of water will be found in the air if there is no ventilation? Repeat the calculation for open vessels containing benzene (vp = 13.1 kPa) and mercury (vp = 0.23 Pa)
Every chemist knows to ‘add acid to water with constant stirring’ when diluting a concentrated acid in order to keep the solution from spewing boiling acid all over the place. Explain how this one fact is enough to prove that strong acids and water do not form ideal solutions.
