A small sample of methane burns, releasing 120.0 kJ of heat and doing 830.0 kJ of work. The total energy released is -950.0 kJ.

  • What is energy?

Energy is a property that is transferred to a physical system, recognizable in the performance of work and in the form of heat and light.

A small sample of methane undergoes combustion. As the hot gas mixture expands, it releases energy (E).

  • It releases 120.0 kJ of heat. By convention, when heat is released, we assign it a negative sign. Thus, q = -120.0 kJ.
  • It does 830.0 kJ of work. By convention, when the system does work on the surroundings, we assign it a negative sign. Thus, w = -830.0 kJ.

The change in the energy is the sum of the heat released and the work done.

ΔE = q + w = -120.0 kJ + (-830.0 kJ) = -950.0 kJ

A small sample of methane burns, releasing 120.0 kJ of heat and doing 830.0 kJ of work. The total energy released is -950.0 kJ.

True or False: It is OK to use wet glassware for the aspirin synthesis without potentially affecting your yield
vesna_86 [32]

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Laboratory synthesis of aspirin is done by the acetylation of salicylic acid with the help of acetic anhydride .

As , the  acid anhydride is very sensitive to moisture , as it can hydrolyze into two molecules of  acids,

Hence , the reaction involving acid anhydride  are conducted in anhydrous solvents .

Hence ,

if water is  present in the glassware then , some of the acetic anhydride is wasted , Which in turns reduces the yield than that expected .

(b) Use the first law of thermodynamic to calculate AU for the following situations: (i) A coiled spring unwinds producing 153 J
il63 [147K]

Answer:

(i) ΔU = 116 J

(ii) ΔU = 289 J

(iii) ΔU = 1 KJ

(iv) ΔU = 0 J

(v) ΔU = 3.25 KJ

Explanation:

first law:

  • ΔU = Q + W

(i) W = 153 J;  Q = - 37 J ( Q ( - ), losing friction )

⇒ ΔU = 153 - 37 = 116 J

(ii) W = 289 J; Q = 0 ( insulated)

⇒ ΔU = W = 289 J

(iii) Q = 1 KJ , W = 0 ( isovolumetric process)

⇒ ΔU = Q = 1 KJ

(iv) isothermal ( constant temperature )

  • ΔU = Cv * ΔT

∴ ΔT = 0° ( isothermal )

⇒ ΔU = 0 J

(v) isobaric ( constant pressure )

⇒ ΔU = Q + W

∴ Q = 15.6 KJ

∴ W = - ∫ P dV = - P ΔV;  W (-) the system performs a job and the volume increases

.

∴ P = 950 KPa * ( 1000 Pa / KPa ) = 950000 Pa = 950000 J/m³

∴ ΔV = 18 - 5 = 13 L * ( m³ / 1000 L ) = 0.013 m³

⇒ W = - ( 950000 J/m³) * ( 0.013 m³ ) = - 12350 J ( - 12.35 KJ )

⇒ ΔU = 15.6 KJ + ( - 12.35 KJ )

⇒ ΔU = 3.25 KJ
