An ideal gas is allowed to expand isothermally from 2.00 l at 5.00 atm in two steps:

Physics
1 answer:
Burka [1]3 years ago
5 0

Heat added to the gas = Q = 743 Joules

Work done on the gas = W = -743 Joules

\texttt{ }

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

The Ideal Gas Law that needs to be recalled is:

\large {\boxed {PV = nRT} }

<em>P = Pressure (Pa)</em>

<em>V = Volume (m³)</em>

<em>n = number of moles (moles)</em>

<em>R = Gas Constant (8.314 J/mol K)</em>

<em>T = Absolute Temperature (K)</em>

Let us now tackle the problem !

\texttt{ }

<u>Given:</u>

Initial volume of the gas = V₁ = 2.00 L

Initial pressure of the gas = P₁ = 5.00 atm

<u>Unknown:</u>

Work done on the gas = W = ?

Heat added to the gas = Q = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

<h3>Step A:</h3>

<em>Ideal gas is allowed to expand isothermally:</em>

P_1V_1 = P_2V_2

5.00 \times 2.00 = 3.00 \times V_2

V_2 = 10 \div 3

V_2 = 3\frac{1}{3} \texttt{ L}

\texttt{ }

<em>Next we will calculate the work done on the gas:</em>

W_A = -P_2(V_2 - V_1)

W_A = -3.00(3\frac{1}{3} - 2.00)

W_A = \boxed{-4 \texttt{ L.atm}}

\texttt{ }

<h3>Step B:</h3>

<em>Using the same method as above:</em>

P_2V_2 = P_3V_3

3.00 \times 3\frac{1}{3} = 2.00 \times V_3

V_3 = 10 \div 2

V_3 = 5 \texttt{ L}

\texttt{ }

<em>Next we will calculate the work done on the gas:</em>

W_B = -P_3(V_3 - V_2)

W_B = -2.00(5 - 3\frac{1}{3})

W_B = \boxed{-3\frac{1}{3} \texttt{ L.atm}}

\texttt{ }

<em>Finally we could calculate the total work done and heat added as follows:</em>

W = W_A + W_B

W = -4 + (-3\frac{1}{3})

W = -7\frac{1}{3} \texttt{ L.atm}

W = -7\frac{1}{3} \times 101.33 \texttt{ J}

\boxed{W \approx -743 \textt{ J}}

\texttt{ }

\Delta U = Q + W

0 = Q + (-743)

\boxed{Q = 743 \texttt{ J}}

\texttt{ }

Sergio039 [100]

Answer: 2 diodes

Explanation:

Given : In proof testing of circuit boards, the probability that any particular diode will fail is 0.01.

The number of diodes contained by circuit board = 200

Then , the expected number of diodes to fail is given by :-

0.01\times200=2

Therefore, there are 2 diodes that we will expect to fail.

What is the main incentive for using a traditional economy? A. profit B. stability C. progress D. economic equality Please selec
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

the answer is B, stability

Explanation:

A traditional economy is a system that is based on honorable customs, history, and beliefs. Tradition guides economic decisions, such as production and distribution. Traditional economies depend on agriculture, fishing, hunting, gathering or some combination above. They use exchange instead of money. Most traditional economies operate in emerging markets and developing countries. They are often in Africa, Asia, Latin America and the Middle East. But you can find scholarships from traditional economies scattered all over the world. Economists and anthropologists believe that all other economies started out as traditional economies. Thus, they expect the remaining traditional economies to evolve into market, command or mixed economies over time.
