Starting out on a trip into the mountains, you inflate the tires on your automobile to a recommended pressure of 3.21xx10^(5) Pa on a day when the temperature is - 5.0^(@)C . You drive to the beach, where the temperature is 28.0^(@)C . Assume that the volume of the tire has increased by 3%. What is the final pressure in the tyres?

The boiling point elevation and freezing point depression of solutions have a number of partical applications. Ethylene glycol (CH_(2)OH-CH_(2)OH) is used in automobile radiatiors as an antifreeze because it lowers the freezing point of the coolant. The same substance also helps to prevent the radiator coolant from boiling away by elevating the boiling point. Ethylene glycol has low vapour pressure. We can also use glycerol as an antifreeze. In order for the boiling point elevation to occur, the solute must be non-volatile, but no such restriction applies to freezing point depression. For example, methanol (CH_(3)OH) , a fairly volatile liquid that boils only at 65^(@)C , is sometimes used as an antifreeze in automobile radiators. 620 g glycol is added to 4 kg water in the radiator of car. What amount of ice will separate out at -6^(@)C ?

The stress strain graph for a metal wire is shown in the fig. Up to the point E, the wire returns to its original state O along the curve EPO, when it is gradually unloaded. Point B corresponds to the fracture of the wire. (a) Up to what point on the curve is Hooke's law obeyed? (this point some times called proportional limits). (b) Which point on the curve corresponding to elastic limit or yield point of the wire? (c ) Indicate the elastic and plastic regions of the stress-strain graph. (d) Describe what happens when the wire is loaded up to a stress corresponding to the point A on the graph and then unloaded gradually. In particular explain the dotted curve. (e) What is peculiar about the portion of the stress- strain graph from C to B? Up to what stress can the wire be subjected without causing fracture?

For example, methanol (CH_(3)OH), a fairly volatile liquid that boils only at 65^(@)C, is sometimes used as an antifreeze in automobile radiators. 124 g each of the two reagents glycol and glycerol are added in 5 kg of water of the radiators in two cars. Which of the following statements is wrong? (a)Both will act as antifreeze. (b)Glycol will be better. (c)Glycerol is better because its molar mass is greater than glycol. (d)all of these
