Chapter 18, Problem 3P
A gas thermometer is constructed of two gas-containing bulbs, each in a water bath, as shown in Fig. 18-30. The pressure difference between the two bulbs is measured by a mercury manometer as shown. Appropriate reservoirs, not shown in the diagram, maintain constant gas volume in the two bulbs. There is no difference in pressure when both baths are at the triple point of water. The pressure difference is 120 torr when one bath is at the triple point and the other is at the boiling point of water. It is 90.0 torr when one bath is at the triple point and the other is at an unknown temperature to be measured. What is the unknown temperature?

Two evacuated bulbs are connected by a tube of negligible volume. The volume of one of the bulbs is twice that of the other. The larger volume bulb is placed in a 200K Isother constant-temperature bath and the other in a 300K bath, and then 1.00mol of an ideal me gas is injected into the system. Find the final number of moles of gas in each bulb.

- In a chemical processing plant, a reaction chamber of fixed volume V0 is connected to a reservoir chamber of fixed volume 4V0 by a passage containing a thermally insulating porous plug. The plug permits the chambers to be at different temperatures. The plug allows gas to pass from either chamber to the other, ensuring that the pressure is the same in both. At one point in the processing, both chambers contain gas at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 27.0C. Intake and exhaust valves to the pair of chambers are closed. The reservoir is maintained at 27.0C while the reaction chamber is heated to 400C. What is the pressure in both chambers after that is done?arrow_forwardThe pipe below is 100 meters long at a diameter of 0.25 m between Point 1 and 3 and 100 meters long at diameter of 0.5 m Point 3 and 2.

These sacs are called alveoli, and it is from them that oxygen enters the blood.

Assuming that the air behaves as an ideal gas at body temperature (310 K), find the number of oxygen molecules in one of the sacs.arrow_forward
