In a barometeric tube Hg is replaced by H2O then find the height of H2O column to measure the atmospheric pressure.Assume that vapour pressure of H2O in negligible.

Volume of a cylinder containing 10 marbles and gas is 1 litre at 2 atm pressure. Now pressure on the cylinder is increased to 4 atm, at which volume becomes 725 ml. Calculate volume of each marble.

The diameters of a buble at the surface of a lake is 4 mm and at the bottom of the lake is 1 mm. If atmospheric pressure is 1 atm, what is the depth of the lake ? The density of lake-water and Hg are 1.0 gm/ml and 13.6 gm/ml, respectively. Assume that temperature of lake water is equal to that of atmosphere.Also neglect the contribution of pressure due to surface tension.

What is Aqueous tension ?

When a gas is collected over water, it becomes moist due to water vapour which exerts its own partial pressure at the same temperature of the gas. This partial perssure of water vapours is called aqueous tension. Thus,

A balloon of diameter 20 m weighs 100 kg. Calculate its paylod if it is filled with helium at 1.0 atm and 27 ∘ C. Density of air is 1.2 kg m −3 .(R=0.082 dm 3 atm K −1 mol −1 ).
