Suppose that we use a heater to boil liquid nitrogen (n2 molecules). 4480 j of heat turns 20 g of liquid nitrogen into gas. note that the latent heat is equal to the change in enthalpy, and that liquid nitrogen boils at 77 k. the system is kept at a constant pressure of 1 atm. 20) assuming that you can treat the gas as ideal gas and that the volume of the liquid compute the binding energy of a nitrogen molecule in the liquid. (the binding energy is the difference in internal energy per molecule between the liquid and gas) approximately zero,

a. 9.4 x 10-21 j
b. 3.8 х 1027 j
c. 4.2 x 10-18 j
d. 10-20 j e. 2.1 x 10-19 j

Chapter 23, problem 075 the figure shows a geiger counter, a device used to detect ionizing radiation (radiation that causes ionization of atoms). the counter consists of a thin, positively charged central wire surrounded by a concentric, circular, conducting cylindrical shell with an equal negative charge. thus, a strong radial electric field is set up inside the shell. the shell contains a low-pressure inert gas. a particle of radiation entering the device through the shell wall ionizes a few of the gas atoms. the resulting free electrons (e) are drawn to the positive wire. however, the electric field is so intense that, between collisions with gas atoms, the free electrons gain energy sufficient to ionize these atoms also. more free electrons are thereby created, and the process is repeated until the electrons reach the wire. the resulting "avalanche" of electrons is collected by the wire, generating a signal that is used to record the passage of the original particle of radiation. suppose the radius of the central wire is 24 âµm, the inner radius of the shell 2.3 cm, and the length of the shell 14 cm. if the electric field at the shell's inner wall is 2.8 ă— 104 n/c, what is the total positive charge on the central wire?
