A parcel of air with a volume of 9.1 x 104 km3 that contains 5.7 x 107 kg of water vapor rises to an altitude where all the water condenses and then freezes. What is the change in temperature of the parcel of air due to freezing? Assume the density of the air at the condensation altitude is 7.2 x 102 g/m3.
At 26.0 m below the surface of the sea (density = 1 025 kg/m3), where the temperature is 5.00°C, a diver exhales an air bubble having a volume of 1.10 cm3. If the surface temperature of the sea is 20.0°C, what is the volume of the bubble just before it breaks the surface in centimeters?
A parcel of air with a volume of 5.2 x 103 km3 that contains 8.9 x 106 kg of water vapor, rises to an altitude where all the water in the parcel condenses. What is the change in temperature of the parcel due to condensation? Assume the density of the air at the condensation altitude is 8.7 x 102 g/m3.
