A movable piston traps 0.205 moles of an ideal gas in a vertical cylinder. If the piston slides without friction in the cylinder

, how much work will be done on the gas when its temperature is decreased from 270 ∘C to 24∘C? Hint: Since the piston slides without friction, the pressure will remain constant. Use the ideal gas law to change W=−PΔ???? to an expression using ???? and T. Be sure to include the appropriate sign of the work in the answer.

Answer : The work done on the gas will be, 418.4 J

Explanation :

First we have to calculate the volume at 270°C.

PV_1=nRT

where,

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm

V_1 = volume of gas = ?

T = temperature of gas = 270^oC=273+270=543K

n = number of moles of gas = 0.205 mol

R = gas constant  = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get:

(1atm)\times V_1=0.205mol\times 0.0821L.atm/mol.K\times 543K

V_1=9.12L

Now we have to calculate the volume at 24°C.

PV_2=nRT

where,

P = pressure of gas = 1 atm

V_2 = volume of gas = ?

T = temperature of gas = 24^oC=273+24=297K

n = number of moles of gas = 0.205 mol

R = gas constant  = 0.0821 L.atm/mol.K

Now put all the given values in the ideal gas equation, we get:

(1atm)\times V_2=0.205mol\times 0.0821L.atm/mol.K\times 297K

V_2=4.99L

Now we have to calculate the work done.

Formula used :

w=-p\Delta V\\\\w=-p(V_2-V_1)

where,

w = work done

p = pressure of the gas = 1 atm

V_1 = initial volume = 9.12 L

V_2 = final volume = 4.99 L

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

w=-p(V_2-V_1)

w=-(1atm)\times (4.99-9.12)L

w=4.13L.artm=4.13\times 101.3J=418.4J

conversion used : (1 L.atm = 101.3 J)

Therefore, the work done on the gas will be, 418.4 J

A sample of helium gas in a balloon is compressed from 4.0 L to 3.2 L at a constant temperature. If the pressure of the gas in t
vampirchik [111]

Answer:

286 kPa

Explanation:

Boyles law states that volume of gas is inversely proportional to pressure o gas for a fixed amount of gas at constant temperature

P1V1 = P2V2

where P1 is pressure and V1 is volume at first instance

P2 is pressure and V2 is volume at the second instance

substituting the values in the equation

229 kPa x 4.0 L = P2 x 3.2 L

P2 = 286.25 kPa

the new pressure is 286 kPa

A student conducting the iodine clock experiment accidentally makes an s2o32- stock solution that is too concentrated. how will
cupoosta [38]
Adding (S2O3)2- would affect the reaction mechanism that involves this ion. From the reaction mechanism given above, the equilibrium of step 2 would be affected. Adding the stock solution of (S2O3)2- would shift the equilibrium to the right thus making more products of the said mechanism. Also, the reaction rate of this step would occur faster than the original rate. This is based on Le Chatelier's Prinicple which states that a corresponding change would happen to the equilibrium of a reaction when pressure, concentration of the substances or temperature is changed. So, that after the addition, a color change would appear immediately because I3- would be removed slowly from solution, and would therefore be able to react with starch.

Answer:

B.

the passage of genetic instructions from one generation to the next generation.

These are called genes. One mate reporduces with another made and the genetic buildup merges 50 % and 50% with genetics(if it's meiosis), or DNA codes from the parents to the offspring that then possess some of the genes. That shows heridity.
