Open QuestionA 20-cm-diameter cylinder that is 40 cm long contains 50 g of oxygen gas at 20°C.c. What is the number density of the oxygen?
Open QuestionA gas at 100°C fills volume V₀. If the pressure is held constant, what is the volume if (b) the Kelvin temperature is doubled?
Open QuestionA cylinder contains nitrogen gas. A piston compresses the gas to half its initial volume. Afterward,a. Has the mass density of the gas changed? If so, by what factor? If not, why not?
Open QuestionA 6.0-cm-diameter, 10-cm-long cylinder contains 100 mg of oxygen (O₂) at a pressure less than 1 atm. The cap on one end of the cylinder is held in place only by the pressure of the air. One day when the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa, it takes a 184 N force to pull the cap off. What is the temperature of the gas?
Open QuestionThe interior of a Boeing 737-800 can be modeled as a 32-m-long, 3.7-m-diameter cylinder. The air inside, at cruising altitude, is 20°C at a pressure of 82 kPa. What volume of outside air, at −40°C and a pressure of 23 kPa, must be drawn in, heated, and compressed to fill the plane?
