1. A sample consisting of 1.0 mol CaCO3 (s) was heated to 800oC when it is decomposed. The heating was carried out in a containe

r fitted with a piston that was initially resting on the solid. Calculate the work done during complete decomposition at 1.0 atm. What work would be done if instead of having a piston, the container was open to the atmosphere?

Expansion work against constant external pressure: w=-pex Δ Δ V 3. The attempt at a solution . I tried following that. Because Vf>>Vi, and Vf=nRT/pex, then w=-pex x nRT/pex=-nRT (im assuming n is number of moles of CO2?). 1 mole of CaCO3 makes 1 mole of CO2, so plugging in numbers, I get 8.9kJ, although I dont use the 1 atm pressure at all

yaroslaw [1]

Question:

A cork floats on the surface of an incompressible liquid in a container exposed to atmospheric pressure. The container is then sealed and the air above the liquid is evacuated. The cork:

A. sinks slightly  

B. rises slightly  

C. floats at the same height  

D. bobs up and down about its old position

Answer:

The correct answer is C)  floats at the same height  

Explanation:

The liquid is incompressible because its density very high and leaves no room for further compaction whether or not there is atmospheric pressure. So when you put a cork on the liquid, pressure or no pressure, there is no displacement hence it floats on the same height regardless of the absence of air.

Cheers!
