The constant volume heat capacity of a gas can be measured by observing the decrease in temperature when it expands adiabaticall

y and reversibly. If the decrease in pressure is also measured, we can use it to infer the value of γ = Cp/Cv and hence, by combining the two values, deduce the constant-pressure heat capacity. A fluorocarbon gas was allowed to expand reversibly and adiabatically to twice its volume; as a result, the temperature fell from 298.15 K to 248.44 K and its pressure fell from 202.94 kPa to 81.840 kPa.

Answer:

The value is  C_p  = 42. 8 J/K\cdot mol

Explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     \gamma = \frac{C_p }{C_v}

The  initial volume of the  fluorocarbon gas is  V_1 = V

 The final  volume of the fluorocarbon gas isV_2 = 2V

  The initial  temperature of the fluorocarbon gas is  T_1  =  298.15 K

  The final  temperature of the fluorocarbon gas is T_2  =  248.44 K

   The initial  pressure is P_1  = 202.94\  kPa

    The final   pressure is  P_2  =  81.840\  kPa

Generally the equation for  adiabatically reversible expansion is mathematically represented as

       T_2 =  T_1  * [ \frac{V_1}{V_2} ]^{\frac{R}{C_v} }

Here R is the ideal gas constant with the value  

        R =  8.314\  J/K \cdot mol

So  

   248.44 =   298.15  * [ \frac{V}{2V} ]^{\frac{8.314}{C_v} }

=> C_v  =  31.54 J/K\cdot mol

Generally adiabatic reversible expansion can also be mathematically expressed as

    P_2 V_2^{\gamma} = P_1 V_1^{\gamma}

=>[ 81.840 *10^3] [2V]^{\gamma} = [202.94 *10^3] V^{\gamma}    

=>  2^{\gamma} =  2.56

=>    \gamma =  1.356

So

     \gamma  =  \frac{C_p}{C_v} \equiv  1.356 = \frac{C_p}{31.54}

=>    C_p  = 42. 8 J/K\cdot mol

A chunk of ice breaks off a glacier and falls 30.0 m before it hits the water. Assuming it falls freely (there is no air resista
lina2011 [118]

Answer:

The ice chunk will take 2.47 seconds to hit the water.

Explanation:

Height from which ice chunk fell = h = 30.0 m

Initial velocity of the ice chunk = u = 0 m/s

Time taken by ice chunk to cover 30.0 m of height = t

Acceleration due to gravity = g 9.8m/s^2

Using second equation of motion ;

h=ut+\frac{1}{2}gt^2

30.0 m=0 m/s\times t+\frac{1}{2}\times 9.8 m/s^2\times t^2

t=\sqrt{\frac{30.0m/s\times 2}{9.8 m/s^2}}2.47 s

The ice chunk will take 2.47 seconds to hit the water.

(b)Calculate the number of moles of CuSO4 that were in the impure sample of CuSO4(s) .
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

The questions are incomplete

Explanation:

(b) This question is incomplete. However to calculate the number of moles of CuSO₄ present in the impure sample. The formula below can be used;

number of moles = mass of CuSO₄ present in the impure sample ÷ molar mass of CuSO₄

(c) This question is also incomplete. However, to calculate the mass percentage of CuSO₄ present in the impure sample of CuSO₄, the formula below can be used.

Mass percentage of CuSO₄ =

mass of CuSO₄ present in the impure sample/mass of impure CuSO₄ × 100

Thus, the mass of the impure sample must be measured also since the actual mass of the CuSO₄ present in the impure sample must have been measured before calculating the number of moles.

How many liters of water would you need to add to 4.36 moles of NaCl to create a 9.4 M solution?
marishachu [46]

Answer:

0.464 L

Explanation:

Molarity (M) = number moles (n) ÷ volume (V)

According to the information given in this question:

number of moles (n) = 4.36 moles

Molarity = 9.4M

Volume = ?

Using M = n/V

9.4 = 4.36/V

9.4V = 4.36

V = 4.36/9.4

V = 0.464 L

Hence, 0.464L of water are needed the volume of water.

How does the product of burning differ from the original material​
guajiro [1.7K]

Answer:

Burning is a chemical process by which two atoms or molecules will combine with each other. In burning, the two atoms or molecules will combine and release energy.When the molecules combine and release energy, it is released in the form of heat and often light.Different compounds react with oxygen differently – some contain lots of heat energy while others produce a smaller amount.The bigger the fuel load, the more intense the fire will be in terms of heat energy output. Moisture content: If the fuel isn't dry enough, it won't burn.Flames consist primarily of carbon dioxide, water vapor, oxygen and nitrogen. If hot enough, the gases may become ionized to produce plasma. Depending on the substances alight, and any impurities outside, the color of the flame and the fire's intensity will be different.
