Answer:

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

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

(c) W_{isothermal}=5.743\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}

(c) Finally, for isothermal, final temperature is not required as it could be computed as:

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.

Choose two of the following scientists: Anton Lavoisier, John Dalton, JJ Thomson, Robert Millikan, Ernest Rutherford, James Chad
elixir [45]

Answer:

John Dalton:

John Dalton was the scientist who introduced atomic theory in the field of chemistry. Dalton worked on different gases and formulated this theory. The main points of Dalton's theory are:

  • Every element present is made up of atoms.
  • Atoms of an elements are have the same same properties whereas these properties are different for each element.
  • According to his theory, an atom could not be broken down.
  • Different atoms combine or get separated from each other during a chemical reaction.

Ernest Rutherford:

Ernest Rutherford is known as the father of nuclear physics due to his impressing research work on radioactivity of atoms. Rutherford was the first scientist to discover the nucleus of an atom and prove that the nucleus was charged. He also described that the electrons circle around the nucleus of an atom.

If kc = 7.04 × 10-2 for the reaction: 2 hbr(g) ⇌h2(g) + br2(g), what is the value of kc for the reaction: 1/2 h2(g) + 1/2 br2 ⇌h
Kay [80]
At the first reaction when 2HBr(g) ⇄ H2(g) + Br2(g)
So Kc = [H2] [Br2] / [HBr]^2
7.04X10^-2 = [H2][Br] / [HBr]^2

at the second reaction when 1/2 H2(g) + 1/2 Br2 (g) ⇄ HBr
Its Kc value will = [HBr] / [H2]^1/2*[Br2]^1/2
we will make the first formula of Kc upside down:
1/7.04X10^-2 = [HBr]^2/[H2][Br2]
and by taking the square root: 
∴ √(1/7.04X10^-2)= [HBr] / [H2]^1/2*[Br]^1/2
∴ Kc for the second reaction = √(1/7.04X10^-2) = 3.769
