Chapter 32, Problem 32.7QAP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The total counting rate for sample is 450cpm (sample plus background) and the counting period for this rate is 15.0min. The counting rate for background is 7 cpm for time period 2.0 min. The value of corrected counting rate is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The following formula will be used for the corrected counting rate-

Rc=RxRb …….. (1)

Where,

Rc = correcting counting rate

Rx = counting rate for sample

Rb = counting rate for background

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The total counting rate for sample is 450cpm (sample plus background) and the counting period for this rate is 15.0min. The counting rate for the background is 7 cpm for time period 2.0 min. The value of standard deviation σR for the corrected counting rate is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The formula used for the calculation of standard deviation for the corrected counting rate is-

σRc=Rxtx+Rbtb

Where,

Rx = counting rate for sample

Rb = counting rate for background

tx = time required for counting rate for sample

tb = time required for counting rate for background

σRc = standard deviation for the corrected counting rate

Interpretation Introduction

(c)

Interpretation:

The total counting rate for sample is 450cpm (sample plus background) and the counting period for this rate is 15.0min. The counting rate for background is 7 cpm for time period 2.0 min. The value of 95% confidence interval for the corrected counting rate is to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The formula that will be used-

R=R±zσR

The formula used for the calculation of standard deviation for the corrected counting rate is-

σRc=Rxtx+Rbtb

Where,

Rx = counting rate for sample

Rb = counting rate for background

tx = time required for counting rate for sample

tb = time required for counting rate for background

σRc = standard deviation for the corrected counting rate

Rc=RxRb

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)
