The Rankine temperature scale(abbreviated ) uses the same scale size degrees as Fahrenheit, but measured up from absolute zero like Kelvin(so Rankine is to Fahrenheit as Kelvin is to Celsius). Find the conversion formula between Rankine and Fahrenheit and also between Rankine and Kelvin. What is the room temperature on the Rankine scale?
Problem 1.49. Consider the combustion of one mole of with mole of under standard conditions, as discussed in the text. How much of the heat energy produced comes from a decrease in the internal energy of the system, and how much comes from work done by the collapsing atmosphere? (Treat the volume of the liquid water as negligible.)
Problem 1.41. To measure the heat capacity of an object, all you usually have to do is put it in thermal contact with another object whose heat capacity you know. As an example, suppose that a chunk of metal is immersed in boiling water (100°C), then is quickly transferred into a Styrofoam cup containing 250 g of water at 20°C. After a minute or so, the temperature of the contents of the cup is 24°C. Assume that during this time no significant energy is transferred between the contents of the cup and the surroundings. The heat capacity of the cup itself is negligible.
List all the degrees of freedom, or as many as you can, for a molecule of water vapor. (Think carefully about the various ways in which the molecule can vibrate.)
Imagine some helium in a cylinder with an initial volume of and an initial pressure of Somehow the helium is made to expand to a final volume of ,in such a way that its pressure rises in direct proportion to its volume.
(a) Sketch a graph of pressure vs. volume for this process.
(b) Calculate the work done on the gas during this process, assuming that there are no "other" types of work being done.
(c) Calculate the change in the helium's energy content during this process.
(d) Calculate the amount of heat added to or removed from the helium during this process.
(e) Describe what you might do to cause the pressure to rise as the helium expands.
