The semiconductor industry manufactures integrated circuits in large vacuum chambers where the pressure is 1.0×10-10 mm of Hg. At T=20°C, how many molecules are in a cylindrical chamber 40 cm in diameter and 30 cm tall?

Step 1: Convert the pressure from mm of Hg to Pascals (Pa). Use the conversion factor: 1 mm of Hg = 133.322 Pa. Multiply the given pressure (1.0×10^−10 mm of Hg) by this factor to express the pressure in SI units.
Step 2: Calculate the volume of the cylindrical chamber. Use the formula for the volume of a cylinder: V = πr²h, where r is the radius and h is the height. Convert the diameter (40 cm) to radius (20 cm) and height (30 cm) to meters before substituting into the formula.
Step 3: Use the ideal gas law to relate pressure, volume, and the number of molecules. The ideal gas law is given by: PV = Nk_BT, where P is pressure, V is volume, N is the number of molecules, k_B is Boltzmann's constant (1.38×10^−23 J/K), and T is temperature in Kelvin. Convert the temperature from Celsius to Kelvin using T(K) = T(°C) + 273.15.
Step 4: Rearrange the ideal gas law to solve for N, the number of molecules: N = (PV) / (k_BT). Substitute the values for pressure (in Pascals), volume (in cubic meters), Boltzmann's constant, and temperature (in Kelvin) into the equation.
Step 5: Perform the calculation to determine the number of molecules in the chamber. Ensure all units are consistent (e.g., pressure in Pascals, volume in cubic meters, temperature in Kelvin) before substituting into the formula.

Ideal Gas Law

The Ideal Gas Law relates the pressure, volume, temperature, and number of moles of a gas through the equation PV = nRT. In this context, it allows us to calculate the number of gas molecules in a given volume at a specific temperature and pressure, assuming the gas behaves ideally.

Molecular Density

Molecular density refers to the number of molecules per unit volume of a gas. It can be derived from the Ideal Gas Law and is crucial for determining how many molecules are present in a specific volume, such as the cylindrical chamber described in the question.

Vacuum Pressure

Vacuum pressure is the pressure in a chamber that is lower than atmospheric pressure. In this case, the extremely low pressure of 1.0×10^−10 mm of Hg indicates a near-perfect vacuum, which significantly affects the behavior and density of gas molecules within the chamber.

A 6.0-cm-diameter, 10-cm-long cylinder contains 100 mg of oxygen (O₂) at a pressure less than 1 atm. The cap on one end of the cylinder is held in place only by the pressure of the air. One day when the atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa, it takes a 184 N force to pull the cap off. What is the temperature of the gas?

On average, each person in the industrialized world is responsible for the emission of 10,000 kg of carbon dioxide (CO₂) every year. This includes CO₂ that you generate directly, by burning fossil fuels to operate your car or your furnace, as well as CO₂ generated on your behalf by electric generating stations and manufacturing plants. CO₂ is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming. If you were to store your yearly CO₂ emissions in a cube at STP, how long would each edge of the cube be?
