problem 1,2 and 3
steps and theory please.
Estimate the constant-volume specific heat capacity CV? of benzene (C6?H6?), in units of the ideal gas constant R. See the image of benzene structure below. Explain your estimate in detail. Recall that for a monatomic ideal gas, CV?=23?R. Figure 1: Benzene molecule Problem 2 An interstellar gas cloud consists of atomic hydrogen with density nH?=104cm?3. At what temperature would the thermal (kinetic) pressure of the gas be equal to the radiation pressure of the photons emitted by the gas? Problem 3 One kilomole of a monatomic ideal gas follows the reversible closed cycle shown in the figure below. Here, P1?=10atm,V1?=2m3, and V2?=4m3. The segment of the cycle from point 1 to point 2 is adiabatic. Calculate the change in entropy for each segment of the cycle. What is the sum of entropy changes over the complete cycle?
