Read this scenario, and then answer the questions that follow. Human transportation enabled a species of beetle to move from Asia to North America. This beetle feeds on a particular species of flowering trees. In its native habitat, predators control its population. However, the beetle has fewer predators in North America. A group of scientists studied the effect this beetle has on the tree population in the forest. After five years of research, they determined that the beetle population doubled each year. On the other hand, the number of healthy trees decreased by 40 percent from the previous year's population. During the first year of their research, the scientists estimated that there were 250 beetles and 4,000 healthy trees in the forest area.

it means there are 3 atoms of oxygen

what is the average time it took the car to travel 0.25 meters?

⇒ 2.23 seconds

what is the average time it took the car to travel 0.50 meters?

⇒ 3.13 seconds

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
