A vessel of volume V0 contains an ideal gas at pressure p0 and temperature T. Gas is continuously pumped out of this vessel at a constant volume-rate dV/dt = r keeping the temperature constant. The pressure of the gas being taken out equals the pressure inside the vessel. Find (a) the pressure of the gas as a function of time, (b) the time taken before half the original gas is pumped out.
Use R = 8.3 J K−1 mol−1

उत्तर
Let P be the pressure and n be the number of moles of gas inside the vessel at any given time t .
Suppose a small amount of gas of dn moles is pumped out and the decrease in pressure is dP .
Applying equation of state to the gas inside the vessel , we get
`(P - dP) V_0 = (n - dn) RT`
⇒ `PV_0 - dPV_0 = nRT - dnRT`
But `PV_0 = nRT`
⇒ `V_0dP = dnRT` ..............(1)
The pressure of the gas taken out is equal to the inner pressure .
Applying equation of state , we get
`(P - dP) dV = dnRT`
⇒ `PdV = dnRT` ..........(2)
From eq. (1) and eq. (2) , we get
`V_0dP = PdV`
⇒ `(dP)/P = (dV)/V_0`
`(dV)/dt = r`
⇒ `dV = rdt`
⇒ `dV = -rdt` ........(3) [Since pressures decreases , rate is negative]
Now ,
`(dP)/P = (-rdt)/V_0` [From eq. (3)]
(a)
Integrating the equation P = P0 to P = P and time t = 0 to t = t , we get
`∫_(P0)^P = ∫_0^t`
⇒ `In P - In P_0 = - (rt)/V_0`
⇒ `In (P/P_0) = - (rt) /V_0`
⇒ `P = P_0e^((-rt)/V_0)`
(b)
`P = P_0/2`
`P_0/2 = P_0e^((-rt)/V_0)`
⇒ `e^((rt)/V_0) = 2`
⇒`(rt)/V_0 = In 2`
⇒ `t = (V_0 In 2)/r`

A barometer correctly reads the atmospheric pressure as 76 cm of mercury. Water droplets are slowly introduced into the barometer tube by a dropper. The height of the mercury column first decreases and then becomes constant. If the saturation vapour pressure at the atmospheric temperature is 0.80 cm of mercury, find the height of the mercury column when it reaches its minimum value.
A faulty barometer contains certain amount of air and saturated water vapour. It reads 74.0 cm when the atmospheric pressure is 76.0 cm of mercury and reads 72.10 cm when the atmospheric pressure is 74.0 cm of mercury.
