Heat is transferred directly from a heat reservoir at 200 C to another heat reservoir at 5C. If the amount of heat transferred i
s 100kJ, what is the total entropy change as a result of this process? Draw a schematic to represent the heat exchange
1 answer:
Answer:
ΔS=0.148 KJ/K
Explanation:
Given that
Q = 100 KJ
T₁=200°C
T₁=200+273 = 437 K
T₂=5°C
T₂=5 + 273 = 278 K
Reservoir 1 is rejecting heat that is why it taken as negative while the reservoir 2 is gaining the heat that is why it is taken as positive.
So the total change in entropy given as
ΔS= - Q/T₁ + Q/T₂
ΔS= - 100/473 + 100/278 KJ/K
ΔS=0.148 KJ/K

Answer:
73.88 g/mol
Explanation:
For this question we have to keep in mind that the unknown substance is a <u>gas</u>, therefore we can use the <u>ideal gas law</u>:
In this case we will have:
P= 1 atm
V= 3.16 L
T = 32 ªC = 305.15 ºK
R= 0.082
n= ?
So, we can <u>solve for "n"</u> (moles):
Now, we have to remember that the <u>molar mass value has "g/mol"</u> units. We already have the grams (9.33 g), so we have to <u>divide</u> by the moles:
