Chapter 12, Problem 38P

* Mount Everest (a) Determine the number of molecules per unit volume in the atmosphere at the top of Mount Everest. The pressure is $\text{0}\text{.31 }\times {\text{ 10}}^{\text{5}}{\text{N/m}}^{\text{2}}$, and the temperature is $\text{-30 °C}$. (b) Determine the number of molecules per unit volume at sea level, where the pressure is $\text{1}\text{.0 }\times {\text{ 10}}^{\text{5}}{\text{N/m}}^{\text{2}}$ and the temperature is $\text{20 °C}$.
