Three kilograms of steam is contained in a horizontal, frictionless piston and the cylinder is heated at a constant pressure of

0.5 bar from 100 °C to such a temperature that the specific volume increases by 2.5 times. If the amount of heat that must be added to accomplish this change is 500 kJ, calculate the final temperature of the steam, the expansion work, and the change in internal energy.

Answer:

Final temperature: 659.8ºC

Expansion work: 3*75=225 kJ

Internal energy change: 275 kJ

Explanation:

First, considering both initial and final states, write the energy balance:

U_{2}-U_{1}=Q-W

Q is the only variable known. To determine the work, it is possible to consider the reversible process; the work done on a expansion reversible process may be calculated as:

dw=Pdv

The pressure is constant, so:  w=P(v_{2}-v_{1} )=0.5*100*1.5=75\frac{kJ}{kg} (There is a multiplication by 100 due to the conversion of bar to kPa)

So, the internal energy change may be calculated from the energy balance (don't forget to multiply by the mass):

U_{2}-U_{1}=500-(3*75)=275kJ

On the other hand, due to the low pressure the ideal gas law may be appropriate. The ideal gas law is written for both states:

P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{1}

P_{2}V_{2}=nRT_{2}\\V_{2}=2.5V_{1}\\P_{2}=P_{1}\\2.5P_{1}V_{1}=nRT_{2}  

Subtracting the first from the second:

1.5P_{1}V_{1}=nR(T_{2}-T_{1})

Isolating T_{2}:

T_{2}=T_{1}+\frac{1.5P_{1}V_{1}}{nR}

Assuming that it is water steam, n=0.1666 kmol

V_{1}=\frac{nRT_{1}}{P_{1}}=\frac{8.314*0.1666*373.15}{500} =1.034m^{3}

T_{2}=100+\frac{1.5*500*1.034}{0.1666*8.314}=659.76 ºC

5. How many moles are in 58.6 L of Nitrogen gas (N.) at STP?
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

2.6166 moles

Explanation:

stp means: T=273k   p=101.3kpa

R= 8.31(constant)       v=58.6  

using the ideal gas law; pv=nRt

                                        101.3 x 58.6 = n x 8.31 x 273

                                         n= (101.3 x 58.6)\(8.31 x 273)

                                         n= 2.6166moles

Why would it be difficult to sift the iron fillings from the sand
slamgirl [31]

Explanation:

Sand and iron fillings have the same size of particles.

It would be difficult to use a mesh to separate them. Also, sometimes , the iron filing clings well to the surface of the sand particles.

The best way to separate them is to use a bar magnet. The magnetic properties of the iron fillings will get it attracted to the bar magnet leaving the sand particles behind.

Which statement accurately describes binary star systems?
Yakvenalex [24]

Answer:

The correct answer is D.They have stars that may appear to wobble.

Explanation:

Binary star - Wikipediaen.wikipedia.org › wiki › Binary_star

''Astronomers have discovered some stars that seemingly orbit around an empty space. Astrometric binaries are relatively nearby stars which can be seen to wobble around a point in space, with no visible companion. The same mathematics used for ordinary binaries can be applied to infer the mass of the missing companion''

Consider the following hypothetical molecular collisions and predict which of the following will form potential products, given
Annette [7]

Answer:

The collision theory is defined as the rate of a reaction is proportional to the rate of reactant collisions.

Explanation:

The reacting species should collide with orientation that allows contract between the atoms that will become bonds together in the product.

The collision occurs with adequate energy  to permit mutual penetration of the reacting species. The two physical factors based on the orientation and energy of collision, the following reaction with carbon monoxide with oxygen is considered.

 2CO(g) + O2(g) → 2CO2 (g)

After collision between the carbon monoxide and oxygen the reaction is

 CO(g) + O2(g) → CO2 (g) + O(g)

Based on the theories of chemical reaction the molecules collide with sufficient amount of energy an activated complex is formed.
