g compute the specific heat capacity at constant volume of nitrogen gas. the molar mass of N2 is 29.0 You warm 1.8 kg ov water at a constant volume from 21 C to 30.5 C in a kettle

Complete question:

(a) compute the specific heat capacity at constant volume of nitrogen gas. the molar mass of N₂ is 29.0 You warm 1.8 kg of water at a constant volume 1.00 L from  21 C to 30.5 C in a kettle. For the same amount of heat, how many kilograms of 21∘C air would you be able to warm to 30.5∘C ?

(b) What volume (in liters) would this air occupy at 21∘C and a pressure of 1.00 atm? Make the simplifying assumption that air is 100% N₂

(a) The specific heat capacity of N₂ is 715.86 J/kg.K

(b) The volume the air occupy at 21∘C is 8784.29 Liters

Explanation:

Given;

M is the molar mass of N₂ = 29 x 10⁻³ kg/mol

specific heat of N₂ at constant volume, Cv = 20.76 J/mol.K

(a)

The specific heat capacity of N₂ is calculated as;

(b) heat capacity of water;

Q = mcΔθ

where;

c is the specific heat capacity of water = 4200 J/kg.K

m is mass of water, = 1.8 kg

Δθ is change in temperature, = 30.5 - 21 = 9.5 °C

Q = 1.8 x 4200 x  9.5

Q = 71820 J

Mass of nitrogen gas N₂, at this quantity of heat;

The volume this air occupy at 21∘C

most historians agree that gabriel mouton, the vicar of st. paul’s church in lyons, france, is the “founding father” of the metric system. he proposed a decimal system of measurement in 1670. mouton based it on the length of one minute of arc of a great circle of the earth (now called a nautical mile, 1852 meters). he also proposed the swing-length of a pendulum with a frequency of one beat per second as the unit of length (about 25 cm). a pendulum beating with this length would have been fairly easy to produce, thus facilitating the widespread distribution of uniform standards. over the years, his work was revised, improved, and extended by a number of french scientists.

the political sponsor of weights and measures reform in the french revolutionary national assembly was the bishop of autun, better known as talleyrand. under his auspices, the french academy appointed several committees to carry out the work of developing a usable system of weights and measures for france. one of the committees recommended a decimalized measurement system based upon a length equal to one ten-millionth of the length of a quadrant of the earth’s meridian (i.e., one ten-millionth of the distance between the equator and the north pole).
