A compression, at a constant pressure of 140 kPa, is performed on 4.0 moles of an ideal monatomic gas (Cv = 3/2 R). The compress

ion reduces the volume of the gas from 0.26 m^3 to 0.12 m^3. The change in the internal energy of the gas, in kJ is _____? ("^3" means to the power of 3)

<u>Answer:</u> The change in internal energy of the gas is 29.414 kJ.

<u>Explanation:</u>

To calculate the temperature of the gas at different volumes, we use ideal gas equation:

PV=nRT

  • When volume = 0.26m^3

We are given:

Conversion used:  1m^3=1000L

P=140kPa\\V=0.23m^3=260L\\n=4.0mol\\R=8.31\text{L kPa }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Putting values in above equation:

140kPa\times 260L=4mol\times 8.31\text{L kPa }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times T_i\\\\T_i=1095.06K

  • When volume = 0.12m^3

We are given:

P=140kPa\\V=0.12m^3=120L\\n=4.0mol\\R=8.31\text{L kPa }mol^{-1}K^{-1}

Putting values in above equation:

140kPa\times 120L=4mol\times 8.31\text{L kPa }mol^{-1}K^{-1}\times T_f\\\\T_f=505.41K

  • To calculate the change in internal energy, we use the equation:

\Delta U=nC_v\Delta T=nC_v(T_f-T_i)

where,

\Delta U = change in internal energy = ?

n = number of moles = 4.0 mol

C_v = heat capacity at constant volume = \frac{3}{2}R

T_f = final temperature = 1095.06 K

T_i = initial temperature = 505.41 K

Putting values in above equation, we get:

\Delta U=4\times \frac{3}{2}\times 8.314J/K.mol\times (505.41-1095.06)\\\\\Delta U=29414.1J

Converting this value in kilojoules, we use the conversion factor:

1 kJ = 1000 J

So, 29414.1J=\frac{1kJ}{1000J}\times 29414.1J=29.414kJ

Hence, the change in internal energy of the gas is 29.414 kJ.

Which feature of four different marine fossils makes the fossil organism most similar to the present-day organism with four limb
zvonat [6]
I found the rest of the exercise on the internet and these are the options.
"-Undifferentiated vertebrae throughout the body.
-One neck vertebra allowing up and down movement.
-Many neck vertebrae that allow for greater mobility.
<span>-Two neck vertebrae allowing up and down and sideways movement."

The correct answer would be the third. - "</span>Many neck vertebrae that allow for greater mobility." The <span>present-day organism with four limbs has a neck with several vertebrae that allow movements of rotation (mostly because of only two vertebrae at the top of the neck), and side way movements, as well as back and forth movements.</span>

18) Calculate the molarity
Sloan [31]

Answer:

B. 0.92 M

Explanation:

Molarity of a solution = number of moles (n) ÷ volume (V)

According to the information provided in this question;

mass of NaCl = 42g

Volume of water = 780mL

Using mole = mass/molar mass

Molar mass of NaCl = 23 + 35.5 = 58.5g/mol

mole = 42/58.5

mole (n) = 0.72mol

Volume (V) = 780 mL = 780/1000 = 0.780 L

Hence, molarity = n/V

Molarity = 0.72/0.780

Molarity = 0.923 M
