One mole of a monatomic ideal gas is subjected to the following sequence of steps: a. Starting at 300 K and 10 atm, the gas expa

nds freely into a vacuum to triple its volume. b. The gas is next heated reversibly to 400 K at constant volume. c. The gas is reversibly expanded at constant temperature until its volume is again tripled. d. The gas is finally reversibly cooled to 300 K at constant pressure. Calculate the values of q and w and the changes in U , H , and S .

Answer:

a) Q = 0; W = 0; ΔU = 0; ΔH = 0; ΔS = 0.09 atm.L/K

b) Q = 1250 J; W = 0; ΔU = 1250 J; ΔH = 1250 J; ΔS = -0.0235 atm.L/K

c) Q = 3653.545 J; W = - 3653.545 J; ΔU = 0; ΔH = 0; ΔS = - 3653.545 J

d) Q = - 2080 J; W = 830 J; ΔU = - 1250 J; ΔH = - 2080 J; ΔS = - 5.984 J/K

Explanation:

a) If there is a vacuum, the work is zero, as it is a free expansion, the volume increases, the pressure decreases, the temperature is constant and the internal energy is constant.

∴ n = 1 mole

∴ PV = RTn....ideal gas

∴ P1 = 10 atm

∴ R = 0.082 atm.L/K.mol

∴ T = 300 K = T2

∴ V2 = 3*V1

⇒ W = 0.....expands freely into vacuum

⇒ ΔU = Q = 0....first law

⇒ ΔS = -  nR Ln(P2/P1).....ideal gas

∴ V1*P1/T1 = V2*P2/T2

∴ T1 = T2 = 300 K

⇒ P2 = V1*P1 / V2 = V1*P1 / 3V1 = 10 atm/3 = 3.33 atm

⇒ ΔS = - (1mol)*(0.082 atm.L/K.mol) Ln ( 3.33/10)

⇒ ΔS = 0.09 atm.L/K

∴ ΔH = ΔU + (P2V2 - P1V1) = 0 + 0 = 0

b) heated reversibly at constant volume:

⇒ W = 0 ...at constant volume

∴ T2 = 400 K; T1 = 300 K

∴ V1 = V2

⇒ Q = ΔU = CvΔT....first law

∴ Cv = 12.5 J/K.mol.....monoatomic ideal gas

∴ ΔT = 400 - 300 = 100 K

⇒ Q = ΔU = 12.5 J/mol.K * 100K = 1250 J/mol * 1 mol = 1250 J

∴ ΔH = ΔU + PΔV = ΔU + 0 = 1250 J

∴ ΔS = - nR Ln (P2/P1)

∴ P2/T2 = P1/T1...constant volume

∴ P1 = 3.33 atm

⇒ P2 = P1*T2 / T1 = (3.33 atm)*(400K) / (300K) = 4.44 atm

⇒ ΔS = - (1mol)*(0.082atm.L/K.mol) Ln (4.44/3.33)

⇒ ΔS = - 0.0235 atm.L/K

c) reversibly expanded at constant temperature:

∴ T1 = T2 = 400K

∴ V2 = 3*V1

∴ ΔU = 0...constant temperature

⇒ Q = - W....fisrt law

∴ W = - ∫ PdV..... reversibly expansion

∴ P = nRT/V... ideal gas

⇒ W = - nRT ∫ dV/V

⇒ W = - nRT Ln (V2/V1)

⇒ W = - (1mol)*(8.314 J/K.mol) Ln (3)

⇒ W = - 9.134 J/K *400K = - 3653.545 J

⇒ Q = - W = 3653.545 J

⇒ ΔH = ΔU + P1V1 - P2V2 = 0 + nRT1 - nRT2 = 0 + 0 = 0

∴ ΔS = - nR Ln(P2/P1)

∴ P1 = 4.44 atm

⇒ P2 = V1*P1*T2/ V2*T1 = V1*(4.44atm)*(400K) / (3.V1)*(400K)

⇒ P2 = 4.44atm/3 = 1.48 atm

⇒ ΔS = - (1mol)*(8.314 J/mol.K) Ln (1.48/4.44)

⇒ ΔS = -9.134J/K * 400K = - 3653.545 J

d) reversibly cooled at constant pressure:

∴ T2 = 300 K;  T1 = 400 K

∴ P2 = P1

⇒ Q = ΔH = CpΔT

∴ Cp = 20.8 J/K.mol

∴ ΔT = 300 - 400 = - 100 K

⇒ Q = ΔH = 20.8 J/mol.K * ( -100K) = - 2080 J/mol * 1mol = - 2080 J

⇒ ΔU = nCvΔT = (1mol)*(12.5 J/mol.K)*( - 100K) = -1250 J

⇒ W = ΔU - Q = ΔU - ΔH = -1250 J - ( - 2080 J ) = 830 J

∴ ΔS = ∫ δQ/T = ∫ nCpdT/T

⇒ ΔS = nCp Ln (T2/T1)

⇒ ΔS = (1mol)*(20.8 J/mol.K) Ln (300/400) = - 5.984 J/K

In substitution reactions, (CH3)3C-I reacts at the same rate with Br- and Cl- even though Br- is a more reactive nucleophile tha
Kamila [148]

Answer:

A. (CH3)3C-I reacts by SN1 mechanism whose rate is independent of nucleophile reactivity.

Explanation:

We must recall that (CH3)3C-I is a tertiary alkyl halide. Tertiary alkyl halides preferentially undergo substitution reaction via SN1 mechanism.

In SN1 mechanism, the rate of reaction depends solely on the concentration of the alkyl halide (unimolecular mechanism) and is independent of the concentration of the nucleophile. As a result of this, both Br^- and Cl^- react at the same rate.
