e) How many extra kilograms of gasoline would you get if you bought 11.2 gal of gasoline at 0° rather than at 16.5&degC from a pump that is not temperature compensated?
______ kg






7. The concrete sections of a certain superhighway are designed to have a length of 23.0 m. The sections are poured and cured at 10.0°C. What minimum spacing should the engineer leave between the sections to eliminate buckling if the concrete is to reach a temperature of 41.0°C?

a) Determine the number of molecules of gas in the container.
_________ molecules



b) if the pressure of the 1.2-cm3 volume is reduced to 2.0 x 10-11 Pa (an extremely good vacuum) while the temperature remains constant, how many moles of gas remain in the container?
__________ mol







10. Gas is confined in a tank at a pressure of 11.2 atm and a temperature of 26.0°C. If two-thirds of the gas is withdrawn and the temperature is raised to 74.0°C, what is the pressure of the gas reamining in the tank?
________atm






11. A weather balloon is designed to expand to a maximum radius of 24 m at its working altitude, where the air pressure is 0.030 atm and the temperature is 200 K. If the balloon is filled at atmospheric pressure and 253 K, what is its radius at liftoff?
________ m

  4. Can you solve this one. The question states "An expandable cylinder has its top connected to a spring with force constant 2.00 103 N/m (see figure below). The cylinder is filled with 4.00 L of gas with the spring relaxed at a pressure of 1.00 atm and a temperature of 20.0°C"

    (a) If the lid has a cross-sectional area of 0.0100 m2 and negligible mass, how high will the lid rise when the temperature is raised to Tf = 200°C?


    (b) What is the pressure of the gas at Tf = 200°C?

    The question is from chapter 10, question number 60 I believe.

    1. Start with the ideal gas law: PV=nRT
      Since their are two different states for the gas, set up two equations
      P1V1=n1RT1
      P2V2=n2RT2

      Divide the first equation by the second equation (n and R cancel out)
      P1V1/P2V2 = T1/T2

      Now, the pressure is equal to the force over the area (F/A)
      the force of the cylindar will be balanced perfectly by the force of the spring plus atmospheric pressure.
      Express the force of the spring: F/A = -Kx/A
      Express the change in volume in terms of area and its change in position
      deltaV = A*deltax, So then V2 is equal to V1 plus delta V.

      This would be much easier to explain on a video! LMK if this helps
