Pressure gauge at the top of a vertical oil well registers 140 bars. The oil well is 6000 m deep and filled with natural gas dow

andreyandreev [35.5K]

Explanation:

(a) The given data is as follows.

Pressure on top ( $P_{o}$ ) = 140 bar = $1.4 \times 10^{7} Pa$ (as 1 bar = $10^{5}$ )

Temperature = $15^{o}C$ = (15 + 273) K = 288 K

Density of gas = $\frac{PM}{ZRT}$

$\frac{dP}{dZ} = \rho \times g$

$\frac{dP}{dZ} = \int \frac{PM}{ZRT}$

$\int_{P_{o}}^{P_{1}} \frac{dP}{dZ} = \frac{Mg}{ZRT} \int_{0}^{4700} dZ$

$ln (\frac{P_{1}}{P_{o}}) = \frac{18.9 \times 10^{-3} \times 9.81 \times 4700 m}{0.80 \times 8.314 J/mol K \times 288 K}$

= 0.4548

$P_{1} = P_{o} \times e^{0.4548}$

= $1.4 \times 10^{7} Pa \times 1.5797$

= $2.206 \times 10^{7} Pa$

Hence, pressure at the natural gas-oil interface is $2.206 \times 10^{7} Pa$ .

(b) At the bottom of the tank,

$P_{2} = P_{1} + \rho \times g \times h$

= 2.206 \times 10^{7} Pa + 700 \times 9.81 \times (6000 - 4700)[/tex]

= $309.8 \times 10^{5} Pa$

= 309.8 bar

Hence, at the bottom of the well at $15^{o}C$ pressure is 309.8 bar.

A balloon has a volume of 3.0 L at room temperature (27oC). At what temperature would the balloon have a volume of 4.0L?

diamong [38]

Answer: 400K

Explanation:

Given that,

Original volume of balloon V1 = 3.0L

Original temperature of balloonT1 = 27°C

Convert the temperature in Celsius to Kelvin

(27°C + 273 = 300K)

New volume of balloon V2 = 4.0L

New temperature of balloon T2 = ?

Since volume and temperature are given while pressure is constant, apply the formula for Charle's law

V1/T1 = V2/T2

3.0L/300K = 4.0L/T2

To get the value of T2, cross multiply

3.0L x T2 = 4.0L x 300K

3.0LT2 = 1200LK

Divide both sides by 3.0L

3.0LT2/3.0L = 1200LK/3.0L

T2 = 400K

Thus, at a temperature of 400 Kelvin, the balloon would have a volume of 4.0L.
