0.2 mol of gaseous HCl is added to 1.0 L of a buffer solution that contains 3.0 M CH3COOH and 3.0 M CH3COONa. What is the pH of the solution? Assume that Ka for CH3COOH is 10-5. Assume also that the volume of the solution does not change when the HCl is added.

Type your answer in decimal number carrying only one digit after decimal. So you must round up or down at the second digit after decimal.

For example, your answer must be like 1.7, 2.3, 3.4, 4.2, 5.8, 6.6, 7.4, etc.

0.5 Kg of air at t1 = 327 0C and the specific volume v1 = 0.2 m3/Kg is enclosed in a cylinder under a piston. The gas slowly expands with no friction to the temperature t2 = 0 0C and the specific volume v2 =0.65 m3/Kg (polytrophic process). Find the work and heat of the process and change in internal energy of gas. Determine the initial and final pressure of the gas. The isentropic exponent and particular gas constant for air are equal to k=1.4 and R=287 J/KgK, respectively.

) The air in a room with volume 210m3 contains 0.2% carbon dioxide by volume initially. Fresher air with only 0.1% carbon dioxide flows into the room at the rate of 3m3/min and the mixed air flows out at the same rate. Find the percentage of carbon dioxide in the room as a function of time. What is the percentage of carbon dioxide in the room at the end of 30 minutes? What happens in the long run(that is what happens to your function when time t goes to infinity)?

Additional Requirements

1. Honesty pledge that you have completed the Course Experience Survey (CES).

Note: We value your feedback and want to encourage students to provide their feedback especially this semester when things have been so different (e.g. fully online classes, shift to final assessment as assignment instead of exam). Your responses on the CES are confidental, all you need to be to earn 0.5 mark for this is pledge that you have completed the CES. While there is no way we can in fact check this we hope you will be honest and motivated to complete the CES which you can access on Canvas via Student Surveys in the navigation menu.

A solid disk of mass m1 = 9.9 kg and radius R = 0.2 m is rotating with a constant angular velocity of ω = 35 rad/s. A thin rectangular rod with mass m2 = 3.1 kg and length L = 2R = 0.4 m begins at rest above the disk and is dropped on the disk where it begins to spin with the disk.

1)

What is the initial angular momentum of the rod and disk system?

2)

What is the initial rotational energy of the rod and disk system?

3)

What is the final angular velocity of the disk?

4)

What is the final angular momentum of the rod and disk system?

5)

What is the final rotational energy of the rod and disk system?

6)

The rod took t = 6.5 s to accelerate to its final angular speed with the disk. What average torque was exerted on the rod by the disk?

A water pipe tapers down from an initial radius of R1 = 0.2 m to a final radius of R2 = 0.09 m. The water flows at a velocity v1 = 0.86 m/s in the larger section of pipe.

1. What is the volume flow rate of the water?
2. What is the velocity of the water in the smaller section?
3. Using this water supply, how long would it take to fill up a swimming pool with a volume of V = 130 m3? (give your answer in minutes)
4. The water pressure in the center of the larger section of the pipe is P1 = 243120 Pa. Assume the density of water is 103 kg/m3. What is the pressure in the center of the smaller section of the pipe?
5. If the pipe was turned vertical and the volume flow rate in the larger section is kept the same, which answers would change?

*the speed of water in the smaller section

*the volume flow rate in the smaller section

*the pressure in the smaller section
