When fuel is burned in a cylinder equipped with a piston, the volume expands from 0.255 L to 1.45 L against an external pressure

of 1.02 atm. In addition, 875 J is emitted as heat. What is the DE for the burning of the fuel?

Answer : The value of \Delta E for the burning of the fuel is, -998.5 joules.

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the work done.

Formula used :

w=-p_{ext}dV\\\\w=-p_{ext}(V_2-V_1)

where,

w = work done  = ?

p_{ext} = external pressure = 1.02 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 0.255 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 1.45 L

Now put all the given values in the above formula, we get :

w=-p_{ext}(V_2-V_1)

w=-(1.02atm)\times (1.45-0.255)L

w=-1.22L.atm=-1.22\times 101.3J=-123.5J

conversion used : (1 L.atm = 101.3 J)

Now we have to calculate the change in internal energy of the system.

\Delta E=q+w

\Delta E=-875J+(-123.5J)

\Delta E=-998.5J

Therefore, the value of \Delta E for the burning of the fuel is, -998.5 joules.

When I googled how to balance this chemical equation K2CrO4+NaHSO3+H2O=NaHSO4+KOH+Cr(OH)3 they gave me the balanced form of 2K2C
galina1969 [7]
Whatever is on one side of the equation needs to be the same as the other. So K2CrO4+NaHSO3+H2O=NaHSO4+KOH+Cr(OH)3 you need to balance the equation between the = to make a balanced equation.

An atom's tendency is to become stable. What does this mean? A. The electrons all move to one electron shell. B. The atom gains
masya89 [10]
The answer is D. To put it simply, all atom wished to become stable. The only way for that is to obtain an octet structure where the outermost shell would have 8 electrons, thus being full.
