1. Suppose you have a one gram sample of potassium Suppose a meteorite is found in the earth near your home and you are invited to help a scientist determine its age. The meteorite has 12.5% potassium-40 as compared to a similar newly formed meteor. How old is the meteorite? 2. Use the age of the meteorite you calculated in the previous question to determine how much uranium-235 was in the meteorite when it formed if it currently has 3.50 grams of U-235.

answer : (a) volume of the gas = 8.67 ×   l

                (b) second virial coefficient b = -1.21226 l/mole

solution :   given,     t = 300k

                                p = 20atm

                                z = 0.86

                                n = 8.2 mmoles = 8.2 × moles

                                r =   0.082 l atm/k/mol

        find,     (a) volume of gas   and (b) second virial coefficient b at 300k.

formula used :            

                          and            

(a)            

                    = \times 0.082\times 300}{20}[/tex]

                    = 8.67 ×   l

(b)      

                    = (0.00867-1) × 8.659

                    = - 8.5839 l/mole
