A cubic box with sides of 20.0 cm contains 2.00  1023 molecules of helium with a root-mean-square speed (thermal speed) of 200 m/s. The mass of a helium molecule is 3.40  10-27 kg.
 
  What is the average pressure exerted by the molecules on the walls of the container? The Boltzmann constant is 1.38  10-23 J/K and the ideal gas constant is R = 8.314 J/molK = 0.0821 L  atm/mol  K.
  A) 3.39 kPa B) 1.13 kPa C) 570 Pa D) 9.10 Pa E) 2.26 kPa

Question 2

An electron is bound in an infinite square-well potential (a box) on the x-axis. The width of the well is L and the well extends from x = 0.00 nm to
 
  In its present state, the normalized wave function of the electron is given by: (x) = sin (2x/L). What is the energy of the electron in this state?(h = 6.626  10-34 J  s, mel = 9.11  10-31 kg, 1 eV = 1.60  10-19)
  A) 0.10 eV
  B) 0.052 eV
  C) 0.13 eV
  D) 0.078 eV
  E) 0.026 eV

Did you know?

More than 20 million Americans cite use of marijuana within the past 30 days, according to the National Survey on Drug Use and Health (NSDUH). More than 8 million admit to using it almost every day.

Did you know?

Asthma attacks and symptoms usually get started by specific triggers (such as viruses, allergies, gases, and air particles). You should talk to your doctor about these triggers and find ways to avoid or get rid of them.

Did you know?

Astigmatism is the most common vision problem. It may accompany nearsightedness or farsightedness. It is usually caused by an irregularly shaped cornea, but sometimes it is the result of an irregularly shaped lens. Either type can be corrected by eyeglasses, contact lenses, or refractive surgery.

Did you know?

Multiple sclerosis is a condition wherein the body's nervous system is weakened by an autoimmune reaction that attacks the myelin sheaths of neurons.

Did you know?

There are major differences in the metabolism of morphine and the illegal drug heroin. Morphine mostly produces its CNS effects through m-receptors, and at k- and d-receptors. Heroin has a slight affinity for opiate receptors. Most of its actions are due to metabolism to active metabolites (6-acetylmorphine, morphine, and morphine-6-glucuronide).
