Charles's Law: the Effect of Temperature on Volume Charles’s Law: The Effect of Temperature on Name_________________________________ Volume Period______ According to the kinetic theory, an increase in temperature will cause the molecules of a gas to move faster and exert more pressure, or cause the gas to expand. Conversely, as a gas is cooled, the molecules will move more slowly and the gas will contract, or exert less pressure. In other words, the volume of a gas increases as temperature increases if the pressure remains constant. This relationship between the volume of a gas and its temperature is known as Charles’s Law. In this experiment you will study the effects of temperature on gas volume and determine the constant for the relationship, V/T. Objectives: In this experiment, you will Determine the effect of temperature on the volume of a gas when pressure is constant, Use your volume and temperature data to calculate the relationship between these values Equipment 1. Goggles 5. One Hole Stopper 9. Hot Plate 2. Beaker 6. Glass tubing 10. Thermometer 3. Erlenmeyer flask 7. Utility Clamp 11. Graduated Cylinder 4. Towel 8. Deep Sink Procedure 1. Measure the total volume of your Erlenmeyer flask by filling with water and placing the rubber stopper in the opening. Pour this water into the graduated cylinder to find the total volume of the entire flask. This will require you to fill up the 100mL graduated cylinder multiple times, adding all the volumes. 2. Setup the apparatus as shown in the figure below. Add enough water to the beaker, so that the beaker is close to full. Place a one hole stopper fitted with a 3cm glass tube on the flask, and place the flask as shown in the figure on the back. Bring the water to a boil for 5 minutes and record the temperature with the Thermometer as T1 in your data table. 3. Remove the Flask by loosening the clamp from the ring stand. Have your finger plugging the glass tubing as you do this. Flask into the one of the three different temperature sinks. Record the temperature of this sink water using your thermometer. This is T2. 4. Remove finger form end of stopper and hold flask while it cools. When cooled, water will stop being pushed into the flask. Raise the flask upside down so that the water level inside the flask and the sink are level. The Atmospheric pressure inside the flask is now equal to the pressure outside 5. Place your finger over the glass tubing and remove the flask from the water. Place it on your table in an upright position before removing finger. Remove the stopper and record the volume of the water in the flask using the graduated cylinder. Subtract volume of water from volume of entire flask to find volume of gas = V2. 6. Repeat this for other two different temperatures. Cold water should have the smallest volume, warm the most. DATA TABLE Temperature of hot air (T1) in Kelvin. Volume of the entire flask with rubber stopper in = hot air (V1) Temperature of warm water in Kelvin (T2). Volume of water pushed into the flask in warm water. Total volume of gas in flask after water was pushed in. (V2) Temperature of room temp water in Kelvin (T3). Volume of water pushed into the flask in room temp water. Volume of gas in flask after water was pushed in. Temperature of cold water in Kelvin (T4). Volume of water pushed into the flask in cold water. Volume of gas in flask after water was pushed in. Questions 1. Create a graph of Temperature(x axis) vs. Volume(y axis). Include 0 K has 0 mL volume in this graph. 2. Every calculation should have the same value. Explain why using Charles law: V1 V2 V3 V4 = = = T1 T2 T3 T4 3. Show your work for calculating your slope. Use the best two points to support Charles Law. 4. As you temperature decreased, explain what happened to your volume and why (on a particle level)? .

  • Sanitization: Concentration, Temperature, and Exposure Time
    Sanitization: Concentration, Temperature, and Exposure Time Did you know? According to the CDC, contaminated equipment is one of the top five risk factors that contribute to foodborne illnesses. Food contact surfaces in your establishment must be cleaned and sanitized. This can be done either by heating an object to a high enough temperature to kill harmful micro-organisms or it can be treated with a chemical sanitizing compound. 1. Heat Sanitization: Allowing a food contact surface to be exposed to high heat for a designated period of time will sanitize the surface. An acceptable method of hot water sanitizing is by utilizing the three compartment sink. The final step of the wash, rinse, and sanitizing procedure is immersion of the object in water with a temperature of at least 170°F for no less than 30 seconds. The most common method of hot water sanitizing takes place in the final rinse cycle of dishwashing machines. Water temperature must be at least 180°F, but not greater than 200°F. At temperatures greater than 200°F, water vaporizes into steam before sanitization can occur. It is important to note that the surface temperature of the object being sanitized must be at 160°F for a long enough time to kill the bacteria. 2. Chemical Sanitization: Sanitizing is also achieved through the use of chemical compounds capable of destroying disease causing bacteria. Common sanitizers are chlorine (bleach), iodine, and quaternary ammonium. Chemical sanitizers have found widespread acceptance in the food service industry. These compounds are regulated by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and consequently require labeling with the word “Sanitizer.” The labeling should also include what concentration to use, data on minimum effective uses and warnings of possible health hazards.

INFLUENCE OF TEMPERATURE ON DIFFUSION AND SORPTION OF 237Np(V) THROUGH BENTONITE ENGINEERED BARRIERS A Thesis Presented to the Graduate School of Clemson University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science Environmental Engineering and Earth Sciences by Rachel Nicole Pope May 2017 Accepted by: Dr. Brian A. Powell, Committee Chair Dr. Mark Schlautman Dr. Lindsay Shuller‐Nickles ABSTRACT Diffusion rates of 237Np(V), 3H, and 22Na through Na‐montmorillonite were studied under variable dry bulk density and temperature. Distribution coefficients were extrapolated for conservative tracers. Two sampling methods were implemented, and effects of each sampling method were compared. The first focused on an exchange of the lower concentration reservoir frequently while the second kept the lower concentration reservoir consistent. In both sampling methods, tritium diffusion coefficients decreased with an increase in dry bulk density and increased with an increase in temperature. Sodium diffusion rates followed the same trends as tritium with the exception of sorption phenomena.

  • Chapter 3 3.4-2 the Compressibility Factor Equation of State
    Chapter 3 3.4-2 The Compressibility Factor Equation of State The dimensionless compressibility factor, Z, for a gaseous species is defined as the ratio pv Z = (3.4-1) RT If the gas behaves ideally Z = 1. The extent to which Z differs from 1 is a measure of the extent to which the gas is behaving nonideally. The compressibility can be determined from experimental data where Z is plotted versus a dimensionless reduced pressure pR and reduced temperature TR, defined as pR = p/pc and TR = T/Tc In these expressions, pc and Tc denote the critical pressure and temperature, respectively. A generalized compressibility chart of the form Z = f(pR, TR) is shown in Figure 3.4-1 for 10 different gases. The solid lines represent the best curves fitted to the data. Figure 3.4-1 Generalized compressibility chart for various gases10. It can be seen from Figure 3.4-1 that the value of Z tends to unity for all temperatures as pressure approach zero and Z also approaches unity for all pressure at very high temperature. If the p, v, and T data are available in table format or computer software then you should not use the generalized compressibility chart to evaluate p, v, and T since using Z is just another approximation to the real data. 10 Moran, M.

  • Pressure Vs. Volume and Boyle's
    Pressure vs. Volume and Boyle’s Law SCIENTIFIC Boyle’s Law Introduction In 1642 Evangelista Torricelli, who had worked as an assistant to Galileo, conducted a famous experiment demonstrating that the weight of air would support a column of mercury about 30 inches high in an inverted tube. Torricelli’s experiment provided the first measurement of the invisible pressure of air. Robert Boyle, a “skeptical chemist” working in England, was inspired by Torricelli’s experiment to measure the pressure of air when it was compressed or expanded. The results of Boyle’s experiments were published in 1662 and became essentially the first gas law—a mathematical equation describing the relationship between the volume and pressure of air. What is Boyle’s law and how can it be demonstrated? Concepts • Gas properties • Pressure • Boyle’s law • Kinetic-molecular theory Background Open end Robert Boyle built a simple apparatus to measure the relationship between the pressure and volume of air. The apparatus ∆h ∆h = 29.9 in. Hg consisted of a J-shaped glass tube that was Sealed end 1 sealed at one end and open to the atmosphere V2 = /2V1 Trapped air (V1) at the other end. A sample of air was trapped in the sealed end by pouring mercury into Mercury the tube (see Figure 1). In the beginning of (Hg) the experiment, the height of the mercury Figure 1. Figure 2. column was equal in the two sides of the tube. The pressure of the air trapped in the sealed end was equal to that of the surrounding air and equivalent to 29.9 inches (760 mm) of mercury.

  • The Application of Temperature And/Or Pressure Correction Factors in Gas Measurement COMBINED BOYLE’S – CHARLES’ GAS LAWS
    The Application of Temperature and/or Pressure Correction Factors in Gas Measurement COMBINED BOYLE’S – CHARLES’ GAS LAWS To convert measured volume at metered pressure and temperature to selling volume at agreed base P1 V1 P2 V2 pressure and temperature = T1 T2 Temperatures & Pressures vary at Meter Readings must be converted to Standard conditions for billing Application of Correction Factors for Pressure and/or Temperature Introduction: Most gas meters measure the volume of gas at existing line conditions of pressure and temperature. This volume is usually referred to as displaced volume or actual volume (VA). The value of the gas (i.e., heat content) is referred to in gas measurement as the standard volume (VS) or volume at standard conditions of pressure and temperature. Since gases are compressible fluids, a meter that is measuring gas at two (2) atmospheres will have twice the capacity that it would have if the gas is being measured at one (1) atmosphere. (Note: One atmosphere is the pressure exerted by the air around us. This value is normally 14.696 psi absolute pressure at sea level, or 29.92 inches of mercury.) This fact is referred to as Boyle’s Law which states, “Under constant tempera- ture conditions, the volume of gas is inversely proportional to the ratio of the change in absolute pressures”. This can be expressed mathematically as: * P1 V1 = P2 V2 or P1 = V2 P2 V1 Charles’ Law states that, “Under constant pressure conditions, the volume of gas is directly proportional to the ratio of the change in absolute temperature”. Or mathematically, * V1 = V2 or V1 T2 = V2 T1 T1 T2 Gas meters are normally rated in terms of displaced cubic feet per hour.

  • Lecture 6: Entropy
    Matthew Schwartz Statistical Mechanics, Spring 2019 Lecture 6: Entropy 1 Introduction In this lecture, we discuss many ways to think about entropy. The most important and most famous property of entropy is that it never decreases Stot > 0 (1) Here, Stot means the change in entropy of a system plus the change in entropy of the surroundings. This is the second law of thermodynamics that we met in the previous lecture. There's a great quote from Sir Arthur Eddington from 1927 summarizing the importance of the second law: If someone points out to you that your pet theory of the universe is in disagreement with Maxwell's equationsthen so much the worse for Maxwell's equations. If it is found to be contradicted by observationwell these experimentalists do bungle things sometimes. But if your theory is found to be against the second law of ther- modynamics I can give you no hope; there is nothing for it but to collapse in deepest humiliation. Another possibly relevant quote, from the introduction to the statistical mechanics book by David Goodstein: Ludwig Boltzmann who spent much of his life studying statistical mechanics, died in 1906, by his own hand. Paul Ehrenfest, carrying on the work, died similarly in 1933. Now it is our turn to study statistical mechanics. There are many ways to dene entropy. All of them are equivalent, although it can be hard to see. In this lecture we will compare and contrast dierent denitions, building up intuition for how to think about entropy in dierent contexts. The original denition of entropy, due to Clausius, was thermodynamic.

  • Derivation of Pressure Loss to Leak Rate Formula from the Ideal Gas Law
    Derivation of Pressure loss to Leak Rate Formula from the Ideal Gas Law APPLICATION BULLETIN #143 July, 2004 Ideal Gas Law PV = nRT P (pressure) V (volume) n (number of moles of gas) T (temperature) R(constant) After t seconds, if the leak rate is L.R (volume of gas that escapes per second), the moles of gas lost from the test volume will be: L.R. (t) Patm Nlost = -------------------- RT And the moles remaining in the volume will be: PV L.R. (t) Patm n’ = n – Nl = ----- - ------------------- RT RT Assuming a constant temperature, the pressure after time (t) is: PV L.R. (t) Patm ------ - --------------- RT n’ RT RT RT L.R. (t) Patm P’ = ------------ = ------------------------- = P - ------------------ V V V L.R. (t) Patm dPLeak = P - P’ = ------------------ V Solving for L.R. yields: V dPLeak L.R. = -------------- t Patm The test volume, temperature, and Patm are considered constants under test conditions. The leak rate is calculated for the volume of gas (measured under standard atmospheric conditions) per time that escapes from the part. Standard atmospheric conditions (i.e. 14.696 psi, 20 C) are defined within the Non- Destructive Testing Handbook, Second Edition, Volume One Leak Testing, by the American Society of Nondestructive Testing.

  • Air Pressure and Wind
    Air Pressure We know that standard atmospheric pressure is 14.7 pounds per square inch. We also know that air pressure decreases as we rise in the atmosphere. 1013.25 mb = 101.325 kPa = 29.92 inches Hg = 14.7 pounds per in 2 = 760 mm of Hg = 34 feet of water Air pressure can simply be measured with a barometer by measuring how the level of a liquid changes due to different weather conditions. In order that we don't have columns of liquid many feet tall, it is best to use a column of mercury, a dense liquid. The aneroid barometer measures air pressure without the use of liquid by using a partially evacuated chamber. This bellows-like chamber responds to air pressure so it can be used to measure atmospheric pressure. Air pressure records: 1084 mb in Siberia (1968) 870 mb in a Pacific Typhoon An Ideal Ga s behaves in such a way that the relationship between pressure (P), temperature (T), and volume (V) are well characterized. The equation that relates the three variables, the Ideal Gas Law , is PV = nRT with n being the number of moles of gas, and R being a constant. If we keep the mass of the gas constant, then we can simplify the equation to (PV)/T = constant. That means that: For a constant P, T increases, V increases. For a constant V, T increases, P increases. For a constant T, P increases, V decreases. Since air is a gas, it responds to changes in temperature, elevation, and latitude (owing to a non-spherical Earth).
