    mole of H_(2(g)) is 22.4 L, it supports Avogadro’s law that one mole of an ideal gas occupies 22.4 L at STP. At the same time, it indicates that a direct relationship exists between volume and the number of moles of gas as temperature and pressure stays constant. One real world application of the importance of this problem is demonstrated when a helium balloon is lighter than an identical balloon filled with air (http://antoine.frostburg.edu/chem/senese/101/gases/faq/everyday-gas-laws.shtml).…

    Now, the liquid flow governing equations are presented to determine the volume fraction of the liquid and its velocity. The capillary pressure at porous media is defined as the difference between pressure in the liquid and vapor phase. Mass conservation for liquid phase is as follow: (18) (∂(εsρ_l))/∂t+∇.(ρ_l u ⃗_l )=S_(g-l) Darcy law can be used for liquid momentum equation in porous media; therefore, momentum equation is reduced and can be expressed by: (19) u ⃗_l=-K_l/μ_l ∇p_l Also, the liquid…

    first experiment studied the relationship between volume and pressure, while keeping the amount of the gas sample and temperature constant. Table 1 shows the atmospheric pressure recorded during the experiment. Atmospheric Pressure (mm Hg) 644.0 mm Hg Table 1. Atmospheric pressure was recorded using barometer in lab next door. This atmospheric pressure is of the lab next door, and is not the atmospheric pressure in which the experiment took place. Possible errors from this assumption will be…
