Answer all questions in this section.
0 1 A room contains dry air at a temperature of 20.0 °C and a pressure of 105 kPa.
0 1 . 1 Show that the amount of air in each cubic metre is about 40 mol.
[1 mark]
0 1 . 2 The density of the dry air is 1.25 kg mí3.
Calculate crms for the air molecules.
Give your answer to an appropriate number of significant figures.
[3 marks]
crms = m sí1
0 1 . 3 Calculate, in K, the change of temperature that will double crms for the air molecules.
[2 marks]
change of temperature = K

0 1 . 4 A room contains moist air at a temperature of 20 °C. box
A dehumidifier cools and then condenses water vapour from the moist air.
The final temperature of the liquid water that collects in the dehumidifier is 10 °C.
Drier air leaves the dehumidifier at a temperature of 20 °C.
Table 1 compares the air flowing into and out from the dehumidifier.
Table 1
mass of water
mass of air
moist air flowing in 0.0057
drier air flowing out 0.0037
In one hour, a volume of 960 m3 of air flows through the dehumidifier.
Assume that the density of the air remains constant at 1.25 kg mí3.
Determine how much heat energy is removed in one hour from the water vapour by
the dehumidifier.
specific heat capacity of water vapour = 1860 J kgí1 Kí1
specific latent heat of vaporisation of water = 2.3 × 106 J kgí1
[3 marks]
heat energy removed = J 9
