An insulated piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.16 m2 of CO2 at 150 kPa and 41 °C. Electric resistance heater supplied
heat for 10 mins. During this procedure the volume has doubled while pressure stayed the same. Considering electric resistance heater running on 110 V, calculate the needed current in A ((Give your answer with three decimals, and do NOT enter units!!!).

Answer: the theoretical density is 4.1109 g/cm³
Explanation:
first the image of one set of ZnS bonding in the crystal structure, we calculate the value of angle θ
θ + ∅ + 90° = 180°
θ = 90° - ∅
θ = 90° - ( 109.5° / 2 )
θ = 35.25°
next we calculate the value of x from the geometry
given that; distance angle d = 0.234
x = dsinθ
= 0.234 × sin35.25°)
= 0.135 nm = 0.135 × 10⁻⁷ cm
next we calculate the length of the unit cell
a = 4x
a = 4(0.135)
a = 0.54 nm = 0.54 × 10⁻⁷ cm
next we calculate number of formula units
n' = (no of corner atoms in unit ell × contribution of each corner atom in unit cell) + ( no of face center atom in a unit cell × contribution of each face center atom in a unit cell)
n' = 8 × 1/8) + ( 6 × 1/2)
= 1 + 3
= 4
next we calculate the theoretical density using this equation
P = [n'∑(Ac + AA)] / [Vc.NA]
= [n'∑(Ac + AA)] / [(a)³NA]
where the ∑Ac is sum of atomic weights of all cations in the formula unit( 65.41 g/mol)
∑AA is the sum of weights of all anions in the formula unit( 32.06 g/mol)
Na is the Avogadro’s number( 6.023 × 10²³ units/mole)
so we substitute
P = [4( 65.41 + 32.06)] / [ ( 0.54 × 10⁻⁷ )³ × (6.023 × 10²³)]
= 389.88 / 94.84
= 4.1109 g/cm³
therefore the theoretical density is 4.1109 g/cm³
