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

To maintain good kidney function, you should drink at least 3 quarts of water daily. Water dilutes urine and helps prevent concentrations of salts and minerals that can lead to kidney stone formation. Chronic dehydration is a major contributor to the development of kidney stones.

Did you know?

More than 34,000 trademarked medication names and more than 10,000 generic medication names are in use in the United States.

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?

Side effects from substance abuse include nausea, dehydration, reduced productivitiy, and dependence. Though these effects usually worsen over time, the constant need for the substance often overcomes rational thinking.
