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.

What is the total number of joules released when a 5.00-gram sample of water changes from liquid to solid at 0°C?
Marrrta [24]
Energy released from changing the phase of a substance from the liquid phase to solid phase can be calculated by using the specific latent heat of fusion. The heat of fusion of water at 0 degrees Celsius is 334 J/g. Calculation are as follows:
<span>
Energy = 5 grams x 334 J/g
</span><span>Energy = 1670 J</span>

2. List and elaborate on at least two limitations of the 24-hour recall as a
Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer is - may not be typical, and participant burden.

Explanation:

The 24-hour recall is nothing but a retrospective method of diet assessment. In this method, an individual is interviewed about his or her diet consumption during the last 24 hours.

The disadvantages or limitations of this method include the inability of a single day's intake to describe the typical diet, multiple recalls to intake, cost and administration time; participant burden, have to recall to reliably estimate usual intake.

A solution
timurjin [86]
The answer to your question is  C.  A solution is a homogeneous mixture composed of two or more substances, so it couldn't have been A and D. Since a solution can't have its substances separated by a chemical means because they are chemically bonded, thus they are able to be separated by physical means

The turnover number is defined as the maximum number of substrate molecules that can be converted into product molecules per uni
Nataliya [291]

Answer:

Explanation:

turn over number = R max / [E]t   = K2

From given , R max = 249 * 10 ^ -6 mol. L^-1

T [E]t = 2.23 n mol. L^-1

           =   2.23 * 10^-9 mol. L^-1

Putting values in above equation,

=          111.65 * 10^3           S^-1

Turn over number is maximum no of substrate molecule that can be converted into product molecules for unit time by enzyme molecule.
