    Gibbs Energy and Reaction Quotient

    I have been putting some thought into understanding Gibbs energy but I can't quite figure one thing out. Here is my dilemma: Say that someone wants to react A with B to form C, and they mix pure A with pure B. At the moment the reaction starts, there is no C in the mixture (is this...

    How Does Temperature Affect the Heat Capacity of a Rubber Band?

    [b]1. The problem: Suppose a rubber band obeys the equation of state: L = f (b/T), where L is length, f is tension, b is a constant, and T is temperature. For this rubber band, determine (δC[SUB]L/δL)[SUB]T, i.e. the change in the constant length heat capacity with length at constant...

    Finding binding energy from equilibrium bond length

    [b]1. The equilibrium bond length of the He dimer is 2.97 angstroms. What is the binding energy in kJ/mol for this dimer? Would be dimer be stable at room temperature T= 300K (Hint: compare the binding energy to kT) [b]2. interaction potential for the dimer: V(r) =...

    Undergrad Explaining Microscope Functionality using Funsci's Lens Layout | Need Help

    I have made a micrscope for a class, and now i have to explain how it works. I followed the lens layout from this website http://www.funsci.com/fun3_en/ucomp1/ucomp1.htm, and I don't understand why I have the plano-convex lenses oriented the way they are. Basically in the objective I have two...
