A constant-volume gas thermometer registers an absolute pressure corresponding to 325 mm of mercury when in contact with water at the triple point. What pressure does it read when in contact with water at the normal boiling point?
Some folks claim that ice cubes freeze faster if the trays are filled with hot water, because hot water cools off faster than cold water . What do you think?
The rate of effusion—that is, leakage of gas through tiny cracks—is proportional to vrms. If tiny cracks exist in the material that’s used to seal the space between two glass panes, how many times greater is the rate of He leakage out of the space between the panes than the rate of Xe leakage at the same temperature?
(a) 370 times; (b) 19 times;
(c) 6 times; (d) no greater—the He leakage rate is the same as for Xe.
