Question
Problem 6. (microscopic effects on macroscopic bulk properties) Water at 20°C is placed in a closed, rigid container and is slowly heated. Determine if the statements given below are true or false. Statement (G): If the pressure inside the container is atmospheric pressure, then the water will be at a šaturation temperature of 100°C even if the water begins to boil. Statement (ii): If the temperature of the water is at 100°C and the pressure of the sys- tem is lower from 1 bar to 0.1 bars, then the water will go from a saturate liquid to a liquid-vapor. (a) Statement (i) is true; Statement (ii) is true (b) Statement (i) is true; Statement (i) is false. (c) Statement (i) is false; Statement (i is true. (d) Statement (i) is false; Statement (ii) is false.Explanation / Answer
Answer:
Correct answer is option (c), Statement (i) is false; Statement (ii) is true.
