One mole of an ideal gas is expanded from a volume of 1.00 liter to a volume of 8.00 liters against a constant external pressure

of 1.00 atm. How much work (in joules) is performed on the surroundings? Ignore significant figures for this problem. (T = 300 K; 1 L·atm = 101.3 J)

Answer : The work done on the surroundings is, 709.1 Joules.

Explanation :

The formula used for isothermally irreversible expansion is :

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

where,

w = work done

p_{ext} = external pressure = 1.00 atm

V_1 = initial volume of gas = 1.00 L

V_2 = final volume of gas = 8.00 L

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

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

w=-(1.00atm)\times (8.00-1.00)L

w=-7L.atm=-7\times 101.3J=-709.1J

The work done by the system on the surroundings are, 709.1 Joules. In this, the negative sign indicates the work is done by the system on the surroundings.

Therefore, the work done on the surroundings is, 709.1 Joules.

If an atom with a mass number of 27 has 14 neutrons,it is an isotope of which element​
kkurt [141]

Answer:

the number of neutrons in above isotope = A - Z = 27 - 13 = 14. Note: The molar mass of aluminium, which is average of atomic masses of all isotopes = 26.981538 g/mol, since 13Al27 is the major isotope.

What volume of 0.307 m naoh must be added to 200.0ml of 0.425m acetic acid (ka = 1.75 x 10-5 ) to produce a buffer of ph = 4.250
Blababa [14]

The buffer solution target has a pH value smaller than that of pKw (i.e., pH < 7.) The solution is therefore acidic. It contains significantly more protons \text{H}^{+} than hydroxide ions \text{OH}^{-}. The equilibrium equation shall thus contain protons rather than a combination of water and hydroxide ions as the reacting species.

Assuming that x \; \text{L} of the 0.307 \text{mol} \cdot \text{dm}^{-3} sodium hydroxide solution was added to the acetic acid. Based on previous reasoning, x is sufficiently small that acetic acid was in excess, and no hydroxide ion has yet been produced in the solution. The solution would thus contain 0.2000 \times 0.425 - 0.307 \; x = 0.085 - 0.307 \; x moles of acetic acid and 0.307 \; x moles of acetate ions.

Let \text{HAc} denotes an acetic acid molecule and \text{Ac}^{-} denotes an acetate ion. The RICE table below resembles the hydrolysis equilibrium going on within the buffer solution.

\begin{array}{lccccc}\text{R} & \text{HAc} & \leftrightharpoons & \text{H}^{+} & + & \text{Ac}^{-}\\\text{I} & 0.085 - 0.307 \; x& & 0 & & 0.307 \; x\\\end{array}

The buffer shall have a pH of 4.250, meaning that it shall have an equilibrium proton concentration of 10^{4.250}\; \text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3}. There were no proton in the buffer solution before the hydrolysis of acetic acid. Therefore the table shall have an increase of 10^{-4.250}\;\text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3} in proton concentration in the third row. Atoms conserve. Thus the concentration increase of protons by 10^{-4.250}\;\text{mol}\cdot \text{dm}^{-3} would correspond to a decrease in acetic acid concentration and an increase in acetate ion concentration by the same amount. That is:

\begin{array}{lcccccc}\text{R} & \text{HAc} & \leftrightharpoons & \text{H}^{+} & + & \text{Ac}^{-}\\\text{I} & 0.085 - 0.307 \; x& & 0 & & 0.307 \; x\\\text{C} & - 10^{-4.250} & & +10^{-4.250} & & +10^{-4.250} \\\text{E} & 0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x& & 10^{-4.250} & & 10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x\end{array}

By definition:

\text{K}_{a} = [\text{H}^{+}] \cdot [\text{Ac}^{-}] / [\text{HAc}]\\\phantom{\text{K}_{a}} = 10^{-4.250} \times (10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x) / (0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x)

The question states that

\text{K}_{a} = 1.75 \times 10^{-5}

such that

10^{-4.250} \times (10^{-4.250} + 0.307 \; x) / (0.085 - 10^{-4.250} - 0.307 \; x) = 1.75 \times 10^{-5}\\6.16 \times 10^{-5} \; x = 1.48 \times 10^{-6}\\x = 0.0241

Thus it takes 0.0241 \; \text{L} of sodium hydroxide to produce this buffer solution.
