onsider the following cyclic process carried out in two steps on a gas: Step 1: 42 J of heat is added to the gas, and 14 J of ex

pansion work is performed. Step 2: 53 J of heat is removed from the gas as the gas is compressed back to the initial state. Calculate the work for the gas compression in Step 2.

Answer:

W = -25 J

Explanation:

For a cyclic process, the variation of internal energy (ΔU) must be 0. It means that ΔU from step 1 must be equal to ΔU from step 2. For the first law of the thermodynamics, the energy must be conserved, so:

ΔU = Q - W, from each step. Q is the heat and W the work

When the heat is gained by the system, the process is endothermic, so Q >0, when the system loses heat, the process is exothermic, and Q<0. When the system is expanding W>0, and when it is compressing, W<0.

From step 1:

ΔU = 42 - 14

ΔU = 28 J

From step 2:

28 = -53 - W

W = -53 + 28

W = -25 J

The constitutional isomer of ethanol, dimethyl ether (CH3OCH3), is a gas at room temperature. Suggest an explanation for this ob
Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Because of its weak intermolecular forces.

Explanation:

Hello there!

In this case, according to the given description, it turns out possible for us to recall the chemical structures of both ethanol and dimethyl ether as follows:

CH_3CH_2OH\\\\CH_3COCH_3

Thus, we can see that ethanol have London dispersion forces (C-C bonds), dipole-dipole forces (C-O bonds) and also hydrogen bonds (O-H bonds) which make ethanol a liquid due to the strong hydrogen bonds. On the other hand, we can see that dimethyl ether has just London and dipole forces, which are by far weaker than hydrogen bonding, that makes it unstable when liquid and therefore it tends to vaporize quite readily.

Regards!

Which is an example of an exothermic process?
Gwar [14]

1) Answer: A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine.

Explanation: Reactions or process in which heat is released(produced) are known as exothermic reactions or process and those in which the heat is absorbed are known as endothermic reactions or process.

If a beaker feels cools when chemical in it react then it means the chemicals have absorbed the heat energy from its surroundings and so it is an example of an endothermic process.

A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine means the energy is released in the chemical reaction and so it is an example of an exothermic process.

Plants use the sun's energy for photosynthesis which is a process of forming food for the plants. Energy acts as a reactant in this process and so it is an example of endothermic process.

Frying an egg by heating it on a stove is an example of an endothermic process as the heat is required to fry the egg.

So, the only exothermic process is the second one, "A hot pack feels warm when chemicals in it combine."

2) In the given equation, heat is written as a product means the heat is released in the equation and so it is an example of an exothermic reaction.

So, the correct choice is the last one " It is exothermic because energy is released."
