A gas expands against a constant external pressure of 2.00 atm until its volume has increased from 6.00 to 10.00 L. During this
mars1129 [50]

Answer:

ΔU = - 310.6 J (negative sign indicates decrease in internal energy)

W = 810.6 J

Explanation:

a.

Using first law of thermodynamics:

Q = ΔU + W

where,

Q = Heat Absorbed = 500 J

ΔU = Change in Internal Energy of Gas = ?

W = Work Done = PΔV =

P = Pressure = 2 atm = 202650 Pa

ΔV = Change in Volume = 10 L - 6 L = 4 L = 0.004 m³

Therefore,

Q = ΔU + PΔV

500 J = ΔU + (202650 Pa)(0.004 m³)

ΔU = 500 J - 810.6 J

<u>ΔU = - 310.6 J (negative sign indicates decrease in internal energy)</u>

<u></u>

b.

The work done can be simply calculated as:

W = PΔV

W = (202650 Pa)(0.004 m³)

<u>W = 810.6 J</u>

Marys airplane trip took 5.8 hours for one-half of that time, the airplane flew at a constant speed of 640 miles per hour and fo
Olenka [21]
Distance is speed x time.  Half of the trip is 5.8/2 = 2.9hrs.
640 x 2.9 = 1856mi
580 x 2.9 = 1682mi
1856mi+1682mi=3538mi.

You could also calculate her average speed.  This is easy since it was divided in two equal time slices.  Average Speed = (640+580)/2 = 610mi/hr
Now 610mi/hr x 5.8hrs = 3538mi

An insulated beaker with negligible mass contains 0.250 kg of water at 75.0C. How many kilograms of ice at -20.0C must be droppe
kkurt [141]

Answer:

The amount of kilograms of ice at -20.0°C that must be dropped into the water to make the final temperature of the system 40.0°C = 0.0674 kg

Explanation:

Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = Heat lost by the water

Total Heat gained by ice = Heat used by ice to move from -20°C to 0°C + Heat used to melt at 0°C + Heat used to reach 40°C from 0°C

To do this, we require the specific heat capacity of ice, latent heat of ice and the specific heat capacity of water. All will be obtained from literature.

Specific heat capacity of ice = Cᵢ = 2108 J/kg.°C

Latent heat of ice = L = 334000 J/kg

Specific heat capacity of water = C = 4186 J/kg.°C

Heat gained by ice in taking the total temperature to 40°C = mCᵢ ΔT + mL + mC ΔT = m(2108)(0 - (-20)) + m(334000) + m(4186)(40 - 0) = 42160m + 334000m + 167440m = 543600 m

Heat lost by water = mC ΔT = 0.25 (4186)(75 - 40) = 36627.5 J

543600 m = 36627.5

m = 0.0674 kg = 67.4 g of ice.
