On average, each person in the industrialized world is responsible for the emission of of carbon dioxide (data-custom-editor="chemistry" ) every year. This includes that you generate directly, by burning fossil fuels to operate your car or your furnace, as well as generated on your behalf by electric generating stations and manufacturing plants. is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. If you were to store your yearly emissions in a cube at STP, how long would each edge of the cube be?
To determine the mass of neon contained in a rigid, cylinder, you vary the cylinder鈥檚 temperature while recording the reading of a pressure gauge. Your data are as follows:
| Temperature (掳C) | Pressure gauge (atm) |
| 100 | 6.52 |
| 150 | 7.80 |
| 200 | 8.83 |
| 250 | 9.59 |
Use the best-fit line of an appropriate graph to determine the mass of the neon.
At what temperature does the numerical value in 掳F match the numerical value in 掳C?
A demented scientist creates a new temperature scale, the 鈥淶 scale.鈥 He decides to call the boiling point of nitrogen 0掳Z and the melting point of iron 1000掳Z.
a. What is the boiling point of water on the Z scale?
b. Convert 500掳Z to degrees Celsius and to kelvins.
Two students each build a piece of scientific equipment that uses a 655 mm-long metal rod. One student uses a brass rod, the other an invar rod. If the temperature increases by C, how much more does the brass rod expand than the invar rod?
