In a student experiment, a constant-volume gas thermometer is calibrated in liquid nitrogen (−196°C) and in boiling pentane (36.1°C). The separate pressures are 0.347 atm and 1.436 atm. Hint: Use the linear relationship P = A + BT, where A and B are constants.

(a) What value of absolute zero does the calibration yield?
°C

(b) What pressure would be found at the freezing point of water?
atm

(c) What pressure would be found at the boiling point of water?
atm

A hollow aluminum cylinder 22.5 cm deep has an internal capacity of 2.000 L at 15.0°C. It is completely filled with turpentine at 15.0°C. The turpentine and the aluminum cylinder are then slowly warmed together to 65.0°C. (The average linear expansion coefficient for aluminum is 24 ✕ 10−6°C−1, and the average volume expansion coefficient for turpentine is 9.0 ✕ 10−4°C−1.)

(a) How much turpentine overflows?
cm3

(b) What is the volume of turpentine remaining in the cylinder at 65.0°C? (Give your answer to at least four significant figures.)
L

(c) If the combination with this amount of turpentine is then cooled back to 15.0°C, how far below the cylinder's rim does the turpentine's surface recede?
cm

In this week's experiment, the heat of vaporization of liquid nitrogen is determined by measuring the change in temperature of a known sample of warm water when liquid nitrogen is added. In one experiment, the mass of water is 104 grams, the initial temperature of the water is 69.3oC, the mass of liquid nitrogen added to the water is 60.6 grams, and the final temperature of the water, after the liquid nitrogen has vaporized, is 41.3oC. Specific heat of water...

Constant-volume calorimeters are sometimes calibrated by running a combustion reaction of known ΔE and measuring the change in temperature. For example, the combustion energy of glucose is 15.57 kJ/g. When a 2.000 g sample of glucose burns in a constant volume calorimeter, the calorimeter temperature increases from 21.45 to 23.34°C. Find the total heat capacity of the calorimeter (in kJ/K).

(8%) Problem 9: A constant-volume thermometer consists of a rigid bulb and a pressure gauge. To obtain accurate results, this thermometer must be calibrated at a known pressure and temperature. Once this is done, the bulb is sealed off from the atmosphere. The volume and number of moles of gas can no longer change and the temperature is calculated from the pressure measurement.
