If aluminum is diffused into a thick slice of silicon with no previous aluminum in it at a temperature of 1100˚C for 8 hours, wh

at is the depth below the surface at which the concentration is 1016 atoms/cm3 if the surface concentration is maintained at 1018 atoms/cm3? Use D = 2 x 10-12 cm2/s for aluminum diffusing in silicon at 1100˚C.

Answer:

8.354 nanometers

Explanation:

To treat a diffusive process in function of time and distance we need to solve  2nd Ficks Law. This a partial differential equation, with certain condition the solution looks like this:

\frac{C_{s}-C{x}}{C_{s}-C_{o}}=erf(x/2\sqrt{D*t})

Where Cs is the concentration in the surface of the solid

Cx is the concentration at certain deep X

Co is the initial concentration of solute in the solid

and erf is the error function

Then we solve right side,

\frac{C_{s}-C{x}}{C_{s}-C_{o}}=\frac{1018atoms/cm3-1016atoms/cm3}{1018atoms/cm3}=0.001964

And we need to look up the inverse error function of 0.001964 resulting in: 0.00174055

Then we solve for x:

x=0.00174055*2*\sqrt{D*t} =0.00174055*2*\sqrt{2*10^{-12}cm^{2}/s*8h*3600s/h}=8.35464*10^{-7}cm

A diver exhales a bubble with a volume of 250 mL at a pressure of 2.4 atm and a temperature of 15 °C. What is the volume of the
alexdok [17]

Answer : The volume of the bubble is, 625 mL

Explanation :

Combined gas law is the combination of Boyle's law, Charles's law and Gay-Lussac's law.

The combined gas equation is,

\frac{P_1V_1}{T_1}=\frac{P_2V_2}{T_2}

where,

P_1 = initial pressure of gas = 2.4 atm

P_2 = final pressure of gas = 1.0 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 250 mL

V_2 = final volume of gas = ?

T_1 = initial temperature of gas = 15^oC=273+15=288K

T_2 = final temperature of gas = 27^oC=273+27=300K

Now put all the given values in the above equation, we get:

\frac{2.4atm\times 250mL}{288K}=\frac{1.0atm\times V_2}{300K}

V_2=625mL

Therefore, the volume of the bubble is, 625 mL
