Packet 3: Tossup 3

When this quantity remains unchanged, a monatomic ideal gas has a molar heat capacity of 3/2 R. (15[1])Another state function is integrated (15[1])with respect to this quantity to give the work done by an ideal gas. This quantity (15[1])is held constant during an (15[1])isochoric (“eye-so-KOR-ik”) process, (-5[1])such as combustion (15[2]-5[1])inside a bomb calorimeter. This quantity is (15[1])modified by the b coefficient in the (*) van der (10[1])Waals (10[1])equation. (10[1]-5[1])This (-5[1])quantity is proportional to particle number by Avogadro’s law and (-5[1])proportional to temperature by Charles’ (10[1])law. (10[1])This quantity for liquids is often measured by a graduated cylinder. (10[5])For 10 (10[2])points, (10[3])what quantity can be expressed in liters? (10[1])■END■ (10[2]0[1])
