Forces on a Completely-Submerged Gate (Interactive Simulation) @LearnChemE

Uploaded May 2023 | Updated September 2026, 2 weeks ago

Organized by textbook: learncheme.com Explains how to use an interactive simulation that models the forces on a gate that is completely submerged in water. The force applied at the bottom of the gate to keep it closed is calculated from the water level and weight of the gate.

Forces on a Completely-Submerged Gate (Interactive Simulation)

$How Accurate is the Shortcut Vant Hoff Method for Chemical Equilibrium? Organized by textbook: https://learncheme.com/ Uses a spreadsheet (https://learncheme.com/student-resources/excel-files/) that uses Gibbs minimization to compare the equilibrium mole fractions for the reaction 0.5N2 + 1.5H2 to NH3 for two approaches: (1) a temperature-dependent heat of reaction, and (2) a constant heat of reaction.
