A cylinder contains (16g) of (O_2). The work done when the gas is compressed to (75\%) of the original volume at constant temperature of (27^\circ) is ________. Discussion: Given mass of (O_2), m=(16g) Number of moles of (O_2), $$n=\frac{m}{M}$$ where (M)=molecular weight of (O_2)=(32g) $$n=\frac{16}{32}=\frac{1}{2}$$ Temperature (T=27^\circ=300K) If (V_1) be the original volume and (V_2) […]
Question: How many subgroups does the group (\mathbb{Z\times Z}) have? A. 1 B. 2 C. 3 D. infinitely many. Discussion: How many subgroups does (\mathbb{Z}) have? Well, for every (m\ge 0) we have a subgroup (m\mathbb{Z}). And these are all distinct. So there are infinitely many subgroups of (\mathbb{Z}). So how many subgroups does (\mathbb{Z}\times {\bar{0}}) […]

In this post, let's learn about variation of specific heat by finding out the difference between mean specific heat and specific heat at midpoint. The Problem: The variation of the specific heat of a substance is given by the expression $$ C=A+BT^2$$ where (A) and (B) are constants and (T) is the Celsius temperature. Find […]
