A gas is inside a cylinder fitted with a piston. The gas and its surroundings are both at 20 ∘C and the gas is compressed as the

piston moves and decreases the cylinder volume. The compression takes place slowly enough to allow the gas temperature to stay at 20 ∘C and the work done on the gas by the compression is 1.9 × 103 J. What is the change in entropy of the gas

Answer:

-  6.48 J K⁻¹

Explanation:

Temperature of gas = 20°C

= 273 +20 = 293 K.

As temperature is fixed , there will be no change in gas internal energy

Δ E = 0

From the relation

Δ Q =  Δ E+ Δ W

Work done on the gas is 1.9 x 10³

Δ W = - 1.9 x 10³ J

Δ Q = - 1.9 x 10³ J

Δ S =  Δ Q / T

=\frac{- 1.9 \times 10^3 }{293}

= -  6.48 J K⁻¹

What are some possible materials you could use to make your battery? DON’T FORGET TO include information about why it is importa
Dima020 [189]

Explanation:

Commercially available batteries use a variety of metals and electrolytes. Anodes can be made of zinc, aluminum, lithium, cadmium, iron, metallic lead, lanthanide, or graphite. Cathodes can be made of manganese dioxide, mercuric oxide, nickel oxyhydroxide, lead dioxide or lithium oxide. Potassium hydroxide is the electrolyte used in most battery types, but some batteries use ammonium or zinc chloride, thionyl chloride, sulfuric acid or lithiated metal oxides. The exact combination varies by battery type. For example, common single-use alkaline batteries use a zinc anode, a manganese dioxide cathode, and potassium hydroxide as the electrolyt

What is the charge on 1.0 kg of protons? (e = 1.60 × 10-19 c, mproton = 1.67 × 10-27 kg)?
Andru [333]
First, we need to find the number of protons, which is the total mass divided by the mass of one proton:
N= \frac{m}{m_p}= \frac{1.0 kg}{1.67 \cdot 10^{-27} kg}=6.0 \cdot 10^{26} protons

Then, the total charge is the number of protons times the charge of a  single proton:
Q=Ne = 6.0 \cdot 10^{26}\cdot 1.60 \cdot 10^{-19} C=9.6 \cdot 10^7 C
