A sample of an ideal gas in a cylinder of volume 2.67 L at 298 K and 2.81 atm expands to 8.34 L by two different pathways. Path

A is an isothermal, reversible expansion. Path B has two steps. In the first step, the gas is cooled at constant volume to 1.00 atm. In the second step, the gas is heated and allowed to expand against a constant external pressure of 1.00 atm until the final volume is 8.34 L. Calculate the work for path A and B.

Explanation:

  • For path A, the calculation will be as follows.

As, for reversible isothermal expansion the formula is as follows.

            W = -2.303 nRT log(\frac{V_2}{V_1})

Since, we are not given the number of moles here. Therefore, we assume the number of moles, n = 1 mol.

As the given data is as follows.

              R = 8.314 J/(K mol),          T = 298 K ,

          V_{2} = 8.34 L,    V_{1} = 2.67 L

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

            W = -2.303 nRT log(\frac{V_2}{V_1})

   = -2.303 \times 1 \times 8.314 J/K mol \times 298 log(\frac{8.34}{2.67})

     = -2.303 \times 1 \times 8.314 J/K mol \times 298 \times 0.494

    = -2818.68 J

Hence, work for path A is -2818.68 J.

  • For path B, the calculation will be as follows.

Step 1: When there is no change in volume then W = 0

Hence, for step 1, W = 0

Step 2: As, the gas is allowed to expand against constant external pressure P_{external} = 1.00 atm.

So,              W = -P_{external} \times \Delta V

Now, putting the given values into the above formula as follows.

               W = -P_{external} \times \Delta V

                   = -1 atm \times (8.34 L - 2.67 L)  

                    = -5.67 atm L

As we known that, 1 atm L = 101.33 J

Hence, work will be calculated as follows.

       W = -\frac{101.33 J}{1 atm L} \times 5.67 atm L

            = -574.54 J

Therefore, total work done by path B = 0 + (-574.54 J)

                        W = -574.54 J

Hence, work for path B is -574.54 J.

How would a system in which both matter and energy are exchanged freely between the system and the surroundings be classified? (
Nata [24]

Answer:

An open system

Explanation:

An open system is a system in which both matter and energy are exchanged freely between the system and the surroundings.

An example is a pot of water boiling on the stove. The surroundings (the stove) can supply heat energy to the water and the water can escape into the atmosphere.

A <em>closed system</em> is a system in which energy but not matter is exchanged freely between the system and the surroundings.

An example is a pressure cooker on the stove. The surroundings (the stove) can supply heat energy to the food inside, but no matter can escape through the closed lid.

An <em>isolated system</em> is a system in which neither energy nor matter can be exchanged between the system and the surroundings.

An example is a thermos of hot soup. The cap prevents matter from escaping and the shiny interior reflects heat back into the soup.

How to change 5 % W/V of NaCl to ppm , M ? molar mass = 58.5<br>please clear explain​
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Answer:

50000ppm and 0.855M.

Explanation:

ppm is an unit of chemistry defined as the ratio between mg of solute (NaCl) and Liters of solution. Molarity, M, is the ratio between moles of NaCl and liters

A 5% (w/v) NaCl contains 5g of NaCl in 100mL of solution.

To solve the ppm of this solution we need to find the mg of NaCl and the L of solution:

<em>mg NaCl:</em>

5g * (1000mg / 1g) = 5000mg

<em>L Solution:</em>

100mL * (1L / 1000mL) = 0.100L

ppm:

5000mg / 0.100L = 50000ppm

To find molarity we need to obtain the moles of NaCl in 5g using its molar mass:

5g * (1mol / 58.5g) = 0.0855moles NaCl

Molarity:

0.0855mol NaCl / 0.100L = 0.855M
