The heat change in temperature of gas from,

a50Kto 100Kis 62J.

b250Kto 300Kis 104J.

cF2250Kto 3000Kis 150J.

Step by step solution

01

Step: 1 a Temperature changes from 50K to 100K:

If the temperature changes by T,then the thermal energy for diatomic gas changes by equation 20.30in the form

ΔEth=nCVΔT

Knowing the mass Mand the molar mass m, we can get the number of moles by

n=Mm=0.2g2g/mol=0.1mol

This thermal energy converts to heat..The temperature change from50Kto 100K. In this range,CV=32R. So, the heat in equation will be

ΔEth=nCVΔT=32nRΔT=32(0.1mol)(8.314J/molK)(100K50K)=62J.

02

Step: 2 b Temperature changes from 250K to 300K:

The temperature changes from 250Kto 300K.In this range,CV=52R.so,the heat equation will be

ΔEth=nCVΔT=52nRΔT=52(0.1mol)(8.314J/molK)(300K250K)=104J.

03

Step: 3 c Temperature changes from 2250K to 3000K:

The temperature changes from 2250Kto 3000K.In this range,CV=72R.so,the heat equation will be

ΔEth=nCVΔT=72nRΔT=72(0.1mol)(8.314J/molK)(2300K2250K)=150J.

Dust particles are10μmin diameter. They are pulverized rock, with ρ2500kg/m3. If you treat dust as an ideal gas, what is the rms speed of a dust particle at20°C?

1.0molof a monatomic gas interacts thermally with 1.0mol of an elemental solid. The gas temperature decreases by 50oC at constant volume. What is the temperature change of the solid?

On earth, STP is based on the average atmospheric pressure at the surface and on a phase change of water that occurs at an easily produced temperature, being only slightly cooler than the average air temperature. The atmosphere of Venus is almost entirely carbon dioxide CO2, the pressure at the surface is a staggering 93atm, and the average temperature is localid="1648638013375" 470°C. Venusian scientists, if they existed, would certainly use the surface pressure as part of their definition of STP. To complete the definition, they would seek a phase change that occurs near the average temperature. Conveniently, the melting point of the element tellurium is localid="1648638019185" 450°C. What are (a) the rms speed and (b) the mean free path of carbon dioxide molecules at Venusian STP based on this phase change in tellurium? The radius of a CO2molecule islocalid="1648638027654" 1.5×10-10m.

Solids and liquids resist being compressed. They are not totally incompressible, but it takes large forces to compress them even slightly. If it is true that matter consists of atoms, what can you infer about the microscopic nature of solids and liquids from their incompressibility?
