- One process for decaffeinating coffee uses carbon dioxide ( M=44.0 g/mol) at a molar density of about 14,0 mol/m3 and a temperature of about 60 . (a) Is CO2 a solid, liquid, gas, or supercritical fluid under those conditions? (b) The van der Waals constants for carbon dioxide are a=0.3658 Pa m6/mol2 and b=4.286105 m3/mol.

- There are two important isotopes of uranium, 235 U and 238 U ; these isotopes are nearly identical chemically but have different atomic masses. Only 235 U is very useful in nuclear reactors. Separating the isotopes is called uranium enrichment (and is often in the news as of this writing, because of concerns that some countries are enriching uranium with the goal of making nuclear weapons.) One of the techniques for enrichment, gas diffusion, is based on the different molecular speeds of uranium hexafluoride gas, UF6 . (a) The molar masses of 235 U and 238 UF6 are 349.0 g/mol and 352.0 g/mol, respectively. What is the ratio of their typical speeds vrms ? (b) At what temperature would their typical speeds differ by1.00 m/s? (c) Do your answers in this problem imply that this technique may be difficult?arrow_forwardJill takes in 0.0140 mol of air in a single breath. The air is taken in at 20.0°C and exhaled at 35.0°C.

- ANSWER THE FF AND SHOW THE COMPLETE SOLUTION: a.) A Styrofoam cooler contains ice at 0 degrees Celsius. For the ice to melt into water at 0 degrees Celsius, it needs to take in 34 kJ of heat. How long would this take if the heat current through the cooler is 9.4 W? (answer for this is: 1hr) b.) A Styrofoam cooler contains ice at 0 degrees Celsius. The cooler is left outside where the temperature is 30 degrees Celsius. For the ice to melt into water at 0 degrees Celsius, it needs to take in 34 kJ of heat. If the cooler has a total wall area of 0.73 m^2, thickness 5.0 cm, and thermal conductivity 0.027 W/m·K, how long (in minutes) would it take for the ice to melt?arrow_forwardA large metal cylinder with a bottom 2 m in diameter is made out of iron plate that is 5.2 mm thick. Water in the cylinder is heated by a burner that can maintain a 2.3 C° difference between the top and the bottom surface of the bottom plate.

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.arrow_forward
