I can visualize gas molecules, contained in a vessel, randomly bouncing into each other. As temperature increases, the collisions occur more rapidly. I suppose this also applies to liquids. I'll guess that a liquid's boiling point is where the molecular collisions become so violent that...
There's a recent article about cooling hydrogen in an industrial scale with the magnetocaloric effect.

recently I'm looking for diffusion coefficient of gases in liquids. I have read "THE PROPERTIES OF
GASES AND LIQUIDS" from Bruce E. Poling. but in this book it isn't directly mention what is diffusion coefficient of gases in liquids. can we using liquid-liquid models for gas-liquid models?
I really need a help with this exercise:

I am not sure about value of depth I need to use. What I did:
Hydrostatic pressure at bottom of cube = hydrostatic pressure by oil + hydrostatic pressure by water
= ρoil . g . d + ρwater . g . h
Is it correct I use value d = 0.2 m for depth of oil and value of h = 0.02 m for depth of water to...
Yes, pressure is same along the line for both the tubes since the liquids are in equlibrium. (I ignore the slightly longer air column in the left compared to the right).
Is my answer correct?
Hi All,
I have review my thermodynamic notes (~35 year ago..), and I could not able to restore how to get thermodynamic properties (u,h,s,v ..) for compressed liquids. I have found properties tables for compressed liquids ( for water..) but unfortunately the data starts at 5MPa. What if I look...
(a) Situation (2) is my answer (which cannot be in static equilibrium). The pressures in the lower dashed line (##P_2##) has to be the same on either side (for equilibrium). That means the pressure due to the red liquid is equal to the pressure due to the same length of air column (length)...
I was introduced to the concepts like molarity, molality , mole fraction, formality, normality etc. during general chemistry and it was said that these concepts are used to measure the concentration of solutions. But as the thing called Chemical Equilibrium came I was surprised when I read "In...
Molecular Transport equations for Liquids are harder to compute than that for gases, because intermolecular interactions are far more important in liquids. A System of equations for particle Distribution function and the correlation functions (BBGKY-Hierarchy) is used in General. For gases, it...
Since they're all in the same liquid I'm assuming the buoyant forces would be the same on each block. But then I think about the volumes of the blocks, and them being different. I'm not sure if the block's volume would affect the buoyant force. Any help would be great, thanks!
This is a repost as I didn't read the community guidelines the first time. Hopefully this is better!
First thing I did was write down both the linear and volume expansion formulas.
I then multiplied my alpha by 3 and used the volume expansion equation for both materials.

It seems like having the ability to become supercooled below their melting point is the default for liquids (at least liquids without suspended particles, without many interfaces, and without other perturbations). Are there any liquids that don't supercool at all? Or if not, are there any...
I can understand how this applies to gases as in that scenario work done = pressure * change in volume and if change in volume is zero then W=0
so change in internal energy = Q. But I do not understand how this applies generally to all types of substances, say solid, liquid and gas.

Hi PF, I was wondering about this for some time and I can get my head around it.
Viscosity ##\mu## is a "measure" of the momentum flux
Thermal diffusivity ##\alpha## is a "measure" of the heat flux (kinetic energy of molecules)
In gases both viscous stresses and heat flux take place due to...

I was wondering, can a fish swim in incredibly viscous-dominated liquids? I'm thinking it cannot. My first thought is to consider the Navier-Stokes equations and see that the inertial and transient terms are small, so flow is not accelerating, and thus the fish couldn't accelerate either.

Take a U-shaped piece of pipe, standing upwards. Fill the bottom part with liquid and leave the 'prongs' open. Now slam a parcel of liquid into one end at high speed. The other end will experience some momentum exchange and go pushed upwards.
