The volume of a vacuum manifold used to transfer gases is calibrated using Boyle's law. A 0.251 dm² flask at a pressure of 697 Torr is attached, and after system pump down, the manifold is at 10.4 mTorr. The stopcock between the manifold and flask is opened and the system reaches an equilibrium pressure of 287 Torr. Assuming isothermal conditions, what is the volume of the manifold?

A piece of metal "X" weighing 0.0382 g was placed in an eudiometer containing dilute aqueous HCI. After the metal fully dissolved ,15.4 mL of hydrogen gas was collected by displacement of water and a 400 mm column of water was observed. The water temperature was 25 degrees Celcius and the barometric pressure was 758.8 mm Hg ( torr). Refer to the introduction and data sheet to solve the following problems. a) Calculate the volume occupied by the hydrogen gas at STP. b) How many moles of the metal were consumed in the reaction? c) What is the molar mass of the metal?

Stress may trigger some headaches. This could be related to increased (hypertension) or decreased (hypotension) osmotic pressure in cerebrospinal fluid and inside the skull. The human body temperature also may be influenced by these changes. Calculate the pressure p ( in units of torr) inside the brain, if it resulted in 39oC fever. You need to assume a normal body temperature is 37oC, the average CP,m of the human body is approximated as 12.5R, and the outside pressure is 1 atm. Also, assume the process of giving the headache is adiabatic.

A 1 cm diameter spherical pellet of a strongly basic oxide is held at the center of a closed vessel of 5-liter volume. Initially the vessel is evacuated and then filled with an equimolar mixture of H₂S and N₂ at 25 °C and 1 atm total pressure. As the molecules of H₂S reach the surface of the pellet, they get absorbed instantaneously so that the concentration of H₂S at the surface remains zero at all time. Diffusion of H₂S occurs through a stagnant film of estimated thickness of 4 mm surrounding the pellet. The bulk of the gas may be assumed to have a uniform composition at any time. Calculate the time of absorption of 95% of H₂S in nitrogen is 1.73x10 m²/s at this temperature and 1 atm pressure.
