Open Questionb. A nitrogen molecule consists of two nitrogen atoms separated by 0.11 nm, the bond length. Treat the molecule as a rotating dumbbell and find the rms angular velocity at this temperature of a nitrogen molecule around the z-axis, as shown in Figure 20.10.
Open QuestionThe 2010 Nobel Prize in Physics was awarded for the discovery of graphene, a two-dimensional form of carbon in which the atoms form a two-dimensional crystal-lattice sheet only one atom thick. Predict the molar specific heat of graphene. Give your answer as a multiple of R.
Open QuestionConsider a container like that shown in Figure 20.12, with n₁ moles of a monatomic gas on one side and n₂ moles of a diatomic gas on the other. The monatomic gas has initial temperature T₁ᵢ. The diatomic gas has initial temperature T₂ᵢ.a. Show that the equilibrium thermal energies are

Open QuestionAt 100℃ the rms speed of nitrogen molecules is 576 m/s. Nitrogen at 100℃ and a pressure of 2.0 atm is held in a container with a 10 cm x 10 cm square wall. Estimate the rate of molecular collisions (collisions/s) on this wall.
Open Question5.0 x 10²³ nitrogen molecules collide with a 10 cm² wall each second. Assume that the molecules all travel with a speed of 400 m/s and strike the wall head-on. What is the pressure on the wall?
