A diving bell has an air space of 3.8 m³ when on the deck of a boat. What is the volume of the air space when the bell has been lowered to a depth of 63 m? Take the mean density of sea water to be 1.025 g cm⁻³ and assume that the temperature is the same as on the surface.
(No Response) m³

A sample of 4.0 mol O₂ (C^°_p,m = 29.355 J K⁻¹ mol⁻¹) is originally confined in 27 dm³ at 270 K and then undergoes adiabatic expansion against a constant pressure of 600 Torr until the volume has increased by a factor of 3.0. Calculate q, w, ΔU, ΔT, and ΔH. (The final pressure of the gas is not necessarily 600 Torr.)

It is found that the boiling point of a binary solution of A and B with X_A = 0.6589 is 88°C. At this temperature the vapor pressures of pure A and B are 128.1 kPa and 50.55 kPa, respectively.

Many biological electron transfer reactions, such as those associated with biological energy conversion, may be visualized as arising from electron tunneling between protein-bound co-factors, such as cytochromes, quinones, flavins, and chlorophylls. This tunneling occurs over distances that are often greater than 1.0 nm, with sections of protein separating the electron donor from acceptor. For a specific combination of donor and acceptor, the rate of electron tunneling is proportional to the transmission probability, with κ ≈ 7 nm⁻¹ (Use the equations given below.). By what factor does the rate of electron tunneling between two co-factors increase as the distance between them changes from 2.0 nm to 1.3 nm? (No Response) -fold

Stern-Gerlach splittings of atomic beams are small and require either large magnetic field gradients or long magnets for their observation. For a beam of atoms with zero orbital angular momentum, such as H or Ag, the deflection is given by x = ±(μ_BL²/4E_K)dB/dz, where μ_B is the Bohr magneton, L is the length of the magnet, E_K is the average kinetic energy of the atoms in the beam, and dB/dz is the magnetic field gradient across the beam.
