To solve this problem it is necessary to apply the concepts related to thermal transfer given by the thermodynamic definition of heat as a function of mass, specific heat and temperature change.

Mathematically this is equivalent to

Q = mC_p \Delta T

Where

m = mass

C_p = Specific Heat

\Delta T = Change at temperature

In mass terms (KJ / g) this can be expressed as

\frac{Q}{g} = \frac{C_p \Delta T}{m_{grams}}

Our values are given as

\Delta T = 29.8-25.25 = 4.55\°C

C_p = 31.71kJ/\°C

Replacing,

\frac{Q}{m} = \frac{(31.71kJ/\°C) (4.55\°C)}{2.599g}

\frac{Q}{m} =55.51kJ/g

Therefore the heat of combustion per gram on the material is 55.51KJ/g

Assume the work done compressing the He gas is -63 kJ and the internal energy change of the gas is 79 kJ. What is the heat loss
klemol [59]

Answer:

Heat gain of 142 kJ

Explanation:

We can see that job done by compressing the He gas is negative, it means that the sign convention we are going to use is negative for all the work done by the gas and positive for all the job done to the gas. With that being said, the first law of thermodynamics equation will help us to solve this problem.

ΔU = Q + W ⇒ Q = ΔU -W

Q = 79 - (-63) = 142 kJ

Therefore, the gas gained heat by an amount of 142 kJ.
