At its critical point, ammonia has a density of 0.235 g cm23. You have a special thick­walled glass tube that has a 10.0­mm outside diameter, a wall thickness of 4.20 mm, and a length of 155 mm. How much ammonia must you seal into the tube if you wish to observe the disappearance of the meniscus as you heat the tube and its contents to a temperature higher than 132.23°C, the critical temperature?

Explanation:

1. Volume of sealed tube

Assume the sealed tube is a right circular cylinder in which the cap and the base are also 4.20 mm thick.

Its outside dimensions are 155 mm long × 10.0 mm diameter.

Its inside dimensions are

h = 155 mm - 2 × 4.20 mm = 146.6 mm

r = 5.0 mm - 4.20 mm = 0.8 mm

V = πr²h = π(0.8)²× 146.6 mm³ = 294.8 mm³ = 0.2948 cm³
