Question 1Helium gas is contained in a cylinder by a gas-tight piston which can beassumed to move without friction. The gas occupies a volume of 1 x 10^-3m^3 temperature of 300K and a pressure of 1 x 10^5 Pa.(a) Calculate :i.the number of helium atoms in the container,ii.the total KE of the helium atoms(b) Energy is now supplied to the gas in such a way that the gas expands andthe temperature remains constant at 300K. State, and explain what changes, if any, will have occurred in the following quantities :i. The internal energy of the gasii. The root-mean-square speed of the helium atomsiii. The density of the gas.(Given : Boltzmann's constant = 1.38 x 10^23 JK^-1)
In an electrochemical cell, a metal anode lost 0.227 g while a total volume of 0.08149 L of hydrogen gas was produced. The temperature was 298 K and the barometric pressure was 745.4 mm Hg. At 298 K, the vapor pressure of water is 23.8 mm Hg.
How many moles of hydrogen gas were collected?
Indicate whether each statement is true or false: (a) NaCl dissolves in water but not in benzene 1C6H62 because benzene is denser than water. (b) NaCl dissolves in water but not in benzene because water has a large dipole moment and benzene has zero dipole moment. (c) NaCl dissolves in water but not in benzene because the water–ion interactions are stronger than benzene–ion interactions.

- What is degree of reaction? Give expressions of reaction rate equations by degree of reaction.arrow_forward25. A sample of an alkali metal that has a bcc unit cell is found to have a mass of 1.000 g.and a volume of 1.0298 cubic meter. When the metal reacts with excess water, the reaction produces 539.29 mL of hydrogen gas at 0.980 atm and 23°C. Identify the metal, determine the unit cell dimensions, and give the approximate size of the atom in picometers.arrow_forwardProblem 3 An FCC iron-carbon alloy initially containing 0.35 wt% C is exposed to an oxygen-rich and virtually carbon- free atmosphere at 1400 K (1127 °C). Under these circumstances the carbon diffuses from the alloy and reacts at the surface with the oxygen in the atmosphere; that is, the carbon concentration at the surface position is maintained essentially at 0 wt% C. (This process of carbon depletion is termed decarburization.) At what position will the carbon concentration be 0.15 wt% after a 10-h treatment? The value of D at 1400 K is 6.9 x 10¹¹ m²/s.arrow_forward
- For reactions in condensed phases (liquids and solids), the difference between ΔH and ΔU is usually quite small. This statement holds for reactions carried out under atmospheric conditions. For certain geochemical processes, however, the external pressure may be so great that ΔH and ΔU can differ by a significant amount. A well-known example is the slow conversion of graphite to diamond under Earth’s surface. Calculate ΔH − ΔU for the conversion of 1 mole of graphite to 1 mole of diamond at a pressure of 50,000 atm. The densities of graphite and diamond are 2.25 g/cm3 and 3.52 g/cm3 , respectively.arrow_forwardA mechanism for hardening steel is called carburization. To achieve this process, the piece of steel is exposed to an atmosphere rich in hydrocarbon such as methane (CH4). Consider a steel with a carbide concentration of 0.25wt%, which must be treated at 950˚C. If the carbon concentration at the surface is suddenly increased to 1.20wt%, how long does it take for a penetration of 0.5mm from the surface to reach a concentration of 0.80wt%? . The diffusion coefficient for carbon in iron at this temperature is 1.6 x 10-11 m2s-1. Assume that the piece of steel is semi-finite. Use the table below.arrow_forwardThe vapor pressure of liquid lead is 400. mm Hg at 1.90x103 K.

- Vacancy diffusion vs interstitial diffusion (when they can happen?)arrow_forwardDecarburization of a steel occurs when carbon diffuses from the steel to the surface and enters the atmosphere. How long will it take for a 0.6 % C steel surface to decarburize below 0.1 % C for a depth of 2 mm if the FCC steel is held at 1250 °C in an atmosphere containing zero carbon? I need this question's answer. It's important for me.arrow_forwardThe net potential energy EN between two adjacent ions is sometimes represented by the expression C ; - - - + Dexp(-6) (2.18) r EN in which r is the interionic separation and C, D, and p are constants whose values depend on the specific material. (a) Derive an expression for the bonding energy Eo in terms of the equilibrium interionic separation ro and the constants D and p using the following procedure: 1. Differentiate EN with respect to r and set the resulting expression equal to zero. 2. Solve for C in terms of D, p, and ro.arrow_forward
