A thermos bottle (Dewar vessel) has an evacuated space between its inner and outer walls to diminish the rate of transfer of the

rmal energy to or from the bottle’s contents. For good insulation, the mean free path of the residual gas (air; average molecular mass 5 29) should be at least 10 times the distance between the inner and outer walls, which is about 1.0 cm. What should be the maximum residual gas pressure in the evacuated space if T 5 300 K? Take an average diameter of d 5 3.1 × 10210 m for the molecules in the air.

There are quite a bunch of typo errors in the question; here is the correct question below:

A thermos bottle (Dewar vessel) has an evacuated space between its inner and outer walls to diminish the rate of transfer of thermal energy to or from the bottle’s contents. For good insulation, the mean free path of the residual gas (air; average molecular mass = 29) should be at least 10 times the distance between the inner and outer walls, which is about 1.0 cm. What should be the maximum residual gas pressure in the evacuated space if T = 300 K? Take an average diameter of d = 3.1 × 10⁻¹⁰ m for the molecules in the air.

Answer:

9.57 × 10⁻⁷ atm

Explanation:

The mean free path ( λ ) can be illustrated by the equation:

λ =   \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} \pi d{^2}N/V }     ----------  (1)

N/V = \frac{N_AP}{RT}                      ------------- (2)

From the above relation, we can deduce that;

P=  \frac{RT}{\sqrt{2}\pi d{^2}N{_A}λ }     -------------(3)

let I=  λ

From the above equations;

d= diameter of the atom

{N_A} = avogadro's constant

P= pressure

R= universal rate constant which is given by 0.08206 L atm mol⁻¹ k⁻¹

T= temperature

From the question, we are given that the mean free path of the residual air molecules ( d = 3.1 × 10⁻¹⁰ m) is equal to 10cm = 0.1m

Therefore, we can determine the pressure using equation (3)

i.e

P=  \frac{RT}{\sqrt{2}\pi d{^2}N{_A}λ }

=  \frac{(8.314J{K^-^1)(300K)}}{\sqrt{2}(3.14)(3.1*10^{-10}m)^2(6.022*10^{23}mol^{-1})(0.1m) }

=97.06 × 10⁻³ Pa   ×   \frac{1atm}{1.01325*10^5Pa}

=9.57 ×  10⁻⁷  atm

Therefore, the maximum residual gas pressure in the calculated space is; 9.57 ×  10⁻⁷  atm

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

coral bleaching is when the temperature of the water changes (even slight changes in temperature effect coral) and the coral reacts negatively to it causing it to die. unfortunately corals cannot recover once they have been bleached.

Rasek [7]
An ideal gas differs from a real gas in that the molecules of an ideal gas have no attraction for one another. 
An ideal gas is defined as one in which collisions between atoms or molecules are perfectly elastic and in which there are no inter-molecular attractive forces. A real gas on the other hand is a gas that does not behave as an ideal gas due to interactions between gas molecules. Particles in a real gas have a real volume since real gases are made up of molecules or atoms that typically take up some space even though they are extremely small.
