I'm pretty sure they come closer, and on the small chance i'm wrong, they separate.

When heat is applied to molecules, they speed up and separate, that's why water turns to steam. Hope this helps!

Air is compressed from an inlet condition of 100 kPa, 300 K to an exit pressure of 1000 kPa by an internally reversible compress

ElenaW [278]

Answer:

(a) $W_{isoentropic}=8.125\frac{kJ}{mol}$

(b) $W_{polytropic}=7.579\frac{kJ}{mol}$

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) In this case, since entropy remains unchanged, the constant $k$ should be computed for air as an ideal gas by:

$\frac{R}{Cp_{air}}=1-\frac{1}{k} \\\\\frac{8.314}{29.11} =1-\frac{1}{k}\\$

$0.2856=1-\frac{1}{k}\\\\k=1.4$

Next, we compute the final temperature:

$T_2=T_1(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )^{1-1/k}=300K(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} )^{1-1/1.4}=579.21K$

Thus, the work is computed by:

$W_{isoentropic}=\frac{kR(T_2-T_1)}{k-1} =\frac{1.4*8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}(579.21K-300K)}{1.4-1}\\\\W_{isoentropic}=8.125\frac{kJ}{mol}$

(b) In this case, since $n$ is given, we compute the final temperature as well:

$T_2=T_1(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )^{1-1/n}=300K(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} )^{1-1/1.3}=510.38K$

And the isentropic work:

$W_{polytropic}=\frac{nR(T_2-T_1)}{n-1} =\frac{1.3*8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}(510.38-300K)}{1.3-1}\\\\W_{polytropic}=7.579\frac{kJ}{mol}$

$W_{isothermal}=RTln(\frac{p_2}{p_1} )=8.314\frac{J}{mol*K}*300K*ln(\frac{1000kPa}{100kPa} ) \\\\W_{isothermal}=5.743\frac{kJ}{mol}$

Regards.

Why do scientific theories change?

Sergio039 [100]

Scientific theories change because theories may be modified or overturned as new evidence and perspective emerges. ... The process of theory change may take time and involve controversy, but eventually the scientific explanation that is more accurate will be accepted. Hoped you get it!
