Question 1 Report
(a) State two differences between boiling and evaporation.
(b) A closed inexpansibie vessel contains air saturated with water vapour at 77°C. The total pressure in the vessel is 1007 mmHg. Calculate the new pressure in the vessel if the temperature is reduced 1.2 27°C. [ The s.v.p. of water at 77°C and 27°C respectively are 314 mmHg and 27 mmHg. Treat the air in the vessel as an ideal gas]
(c) The lengtn of a zinc rod at 23°C is 200 m. Calculate the increase in length of the rod when its temperature rises to 33°C. [ expansivity of zinc = 2.6 x 10\(^{-5}\) K\(^{-1}\)]
(d) Explain with there is no temperature change when a solid being heated changes into liquid at its melting point.
