By how much (in picograms) does the mass of 1 mol of ice at 0°Cdiffer from that of 1 mol of water at 0°C?

Short Answer

Expert verified

The difference in mass due to conversion of ice into water is 0.068pg.

Step by step solution

01

Identification of given data

The mass of ice and water is m=1mol

02

Latent heat and internal energy

The latent heat of any substance is the amount of heat required to change the state of unit amount of substance without any variation in temperature of substance. The difference in mass due to change in ice into water is found by dividing latent heat of ice by internal energy of ice.

03

Determination of difference in mass

The difference in mass due to conversion from ice into water is given as:

Δm=Hc2

Here is the mass of water molecule and its 18g/mol, C is the speed of light and its value is 3×108m/s, H is the latent heat of ice and its value is 6000J/mol.

Substitute all the values in the equation.

Δm=18g334J/g3×108m/s2Δm=0.068×10-12gΔm=0.068×10-12g1pg10-12gΔm=0.068pg

Therefore, the difference in mass due to conversion of ice into water is 0.068pg.

The light from galaxy NGC 221 consists of a recognizable spectrum of wavelengths. However, all are shifted towards the shorter-wavelength end of the spectrum. In particular, the calcium “line” ordinarily observed at 396.85nmis observed at 396.58nm. Is this galaxy moving toward or away from Earth? At what speed?

If it is fundamental to nature that a given mass has a critical radius at which something extraordinary happens (i.e., a black hole forms), we might guess that this radius should depend only on mass and fundamental constants of nature. Assuming that rcriticaldepends only on M, G, and c, show that dimensional analysis gives the equation for the Schwarzschild radius to within a multiplicative constant.

For reasons having to do with quantum mechanics. a given kind of atom can emit only certain wavelengths of light. These spectral lines serve as a " fingerprint." For instance, hydrogen's only visible spectral lines are656, 486,434,and410nm . If spectra/ lines were ofabsolutely precise wavelength. they would be very difficult to discern. Fortunately, two factors broaden them: the uncertainty principle (discussed in Chapter 4) and Doppler broadening. Atoms in a gas are in motion, so some light will arrive that was emitted by atoms moving toward the observer and some from atoms moving away. Thus. the light reaching the observer will Cover a range ofwavelengths. (a) Making the assumption that atoms move no foster than their rms speed-given by ,vrms=2KBT/m whereKB is the Boltzmann constant. Obtain a formula for the range of wavelengths in terms of the wavelengthλ of the spectral line, the atomic massm , and the temperatureT. (Note: .vrms<<c) (b) Evaluate this range for the656nm hydrogen spectral line, assuming a temperature of5×104K .
