The correct option is D.

Metals have different properties which are utilized in diverse ways to meet the need of man. One of the properties of metals is thermal conductivity. Thermal conductivity refers to the ability of the metal to conduct heat. This property is especially useful in the working of electric pressing iron. The heat released by the metal that is used in the manufacturing of the iron is regulated by mean of thermostat, which keep the heat constant in order to protect the clothes been ironed from damage.

It would most likely be D. Thermal conductivity, as the metal used in ironing is able to conduct heat and allow ironing to be done.

Calculate the change in the entropy of the system and also the change in the entropy of the surroundings, and the resulting tota
Ghella [55]

Answer:

(a) ΔS_{sys}  = 2.881 J/K; ΔS_{sur}  = -2.881 J/K; total change in entropy = 0

(b)ΔS_{sys}  = 2.881 J/K; ΔS_{sur}  = 0 ; total change in entropy = 2.881 J/K

(c) ΔS_{sys}  = 0 ; ΔS_{sur}  = 0 ; total change in entropy = 0

Explanation:

In the given problem, we need to calculate the change in the entropy of the system and also the change in the entropy of the surroundings, and the resulting total change in entropy, when a sample of nitrogen gas of mass 14 g at 298 K and 1.00 bar doubles its volume. We have the following variable:

mass (m) = 14 g

Temperature = 298 K

Pressure = 1.00 bar

Initial volume = V_{1}

Final volume = V_{2} = 2V_{1}

(a) Change in entropy of the system ΔS_{sys} = nRIn\frac{V_{2} }{V_{1} }

where R = 8.314 J/(mol*K)

n = number of moles = mass/molar mass = 14/ 28 = 0.5 moles

ΔS_{sys} = 0.5*8.314*ln2 = 2.881 J/K

Change in entropy of the surrounding ΔS_{sur} = -2.881 J/K

Therefore, for a reversible process, the total change in entropy = ΔS_{sys}+ΔS_{sur} = 2.881 - 2.881 = 0

(b) Because entropy is a state function, we use the same procedure as in part (a). Thus, ΔS_{sys}  = 2.881 J/K

Since surrounding does not change in this process ΔS_{sur} = 0.

total change in entropy = ΔS_{sys}+ΔS_{sur} = 2.881 - 0 = 2.88 J/K

(c) For an adiabatic reversible expansion, q(rev) = 0, thus:

ΔS_{sys}  = 0

Since heat energy is not transferred from the system to the surrounding

ΔS_{sur}  = 0

total change in entropy = ΔS_{sys}+ΔS_{sur} = 0
