When 25.9 j was added as heat to a particular ideal gas, the volume of the gas changed from 41.0 cm3 to 67.5 cm3 while the pressure remained constant at 1.08 atm. (a) by how much did the internal energy of the gas change? if the quantity of gas present is 1.66 x 10-3 mol, find the molar specific heat of the gas at (b) constant pressure and (c) constant volume.

Acommon technique in analysis of scientific data is normalization. the purpose of normalizing data is to eliminate irrelevant constants that can obscure the salient features of the data. the goal of this experiment is to test the hypothesis that the flux of light decreases as the square of the distance from the source. in this case, the absolute value of the voltage measured by the photometer is irrelevant; only the relative value conveys useful information. suppose that in part 2.2.2 of the experiment, students obtain a signal value of 162 mv at a distance of 4 cm and a value of 86 mv at a distance of 5.7 cm. normalize the students' data to the value obtained at 4 cm. (divide the signal value by 162.) then calculate the theoretically expected (normalized) value at 5.7 cm.
