A sample of gas in a sealed container (fixed volume) is heated from room temperature to 80.0°C.

Hello!

A) When the temperature inside the container increases, the pressure inside the container increases as well. 

An example for that is when you have an aerosol can and start heating it. The pressure of the gas inside the aerosol can will start to increase, and that would lead to the exploding of the can if heating is kept for too long. Bombs work on this principle too: The heat from the violent chemical reaction inside the closed compartment increase the pressure of the gases until the fragments are ejected at high velocities. 

B) The effect of temperature on the pressure of a gas illustrates Gay-Lussac's Law.

This law was formulated by the famous French chemist that gives it its name. It relates the expansion of a gas with the increase in temperature when the volume is left constant. The Gay-Lussac's Law can be expressed as follows, for the case of this exercise:

\frac{P1}{T1}= \frac{P2}{T2} \\ \\ P2= \frac{P1}{T1}*T2=P1* \frac{80 degC}{25degC}= P1*3,2

You can see that the factor that is multiplying P1 is higher than 1 for the case of heating from 25 °C to 80 °C, so the pressure will increase.

C) At a molecular level, when the temperature is raised the kinetic energy of the molecules inside the container will increase. This increase in the kinetic energy will cause the molecules to move faster, and to hit the walls of the container more often. This causes an increase in the pressure inside the container because there more hits means more force on the walls of the container, and that is the definition of pressure. 

Have a nice day!

A student observes that water in a pot on a burner becomes hotter explain how energy is conserved in the situation
Daniel [21]

  • The water in the pot becomes hotter as a result of heat transfer.

  • <em>Energy can be transferred from a region to another , but there will still the same overall amount of energy</em> ( energy conservation)

  • When a pot containing water  is  placed on the stove and  heat is applied with the burner, there is a flow of heat from the burner to the water.

  • Heat will be transferred from the burner to the pot, then there will be transferred of heat from the pot to the water, the molecules there in the water  will be energized as a result of the heat transfer until the boiling point  is  reached.

  • Energy transfer can take place in three form, this could be conduction, radiation or convention.

  • Convention which is a cyclical process is the one that occurs in fluids only so as a result of convection , the water at the bottom will be heated and the molecules start moving and it will rise till it get to the water at the top of the pot.

<em>Therefore, the water is heated as a result of heat transfer.</em>
