QUESTION 1 (6 Mks)
In a constant-volume gas thermometer, the pressure at 20.0°C is 0.980 atm. (a) What is the
pressure at 45.0°C? (b) What is the temperature if the pressure is 0.500 atm?
QUESTION 2 (5 Mks)
A pair of eyeglass frames is made of epoxy plastic. At room temperature (20.0°C), the frames
have circular lens holes 2.20 cm in radius. To what temperature must the frames be heated if
lenses 2.21 cm in radius are to be inserted in them? The average coefficient of linear expansion
for epoxy is 1.30 X 10

. If a
50.0 m

steel container is filled completely with carbon tetrachloride when the temperature is
10.0°C, how much will spill over when the temperature rises to 30.0°C?
QUESTION 4 (6 Mks)
One mole of oxygen gas is at a pressure of 6.00 atm and a temperature of 27.0°C. (a) If the gas
is heated at constant volume until the pressure triples, what is the final temperature? (b) If the
gas is heated until both the pressure and volume are doubled, what is the final temperature?
QUESTION 5 (8 Mks)
A 1.0-mol sample of an ideal gas is kept at 0.0°C during an expansion from 3.0 L to 10.0 L. (a)
How much work is done on the gas during the expansion? (b) How much energy transfer by
heat occurs with the surroundings in this process? (c) If the gas is returned to the original
volume by means of an isobaric process, how much work is done on the gas?
