A closed, frictionless piston-cylinder contains a gas mixture with the following composition on a mass basis: 40% carbon dioxide

, 25% oxygen, 35% neon The cylinder contains 0.8 kg of the mixture at 260 oC and 450 kPa. Determine the magnitude and direction of work when the mixture undergoes an isobaric process to 95 oC.

Answer:

W=-37.6kJ, therefore, work is done on the system.

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, the first step is to compute the moles of each gas present in the given mixture, by using the total mixture weight the mass compositions and their molar masses:

n_{CO_2}=0.8kg*0.4*\frac{1kmolCO_2}{44kgCO_2}= 0.00727kmolCO_2\\\\n_{O_2}=0.8kg*0.25*\frac{1kmolO_2}{32kgO_2}=0.00625kmolO_2\\ \\n_{Ne}=0.8kg*0.35*\frac{1kmolNe}{20.2kgNe}=0.0139kmolNe

Next, the total moles:

n_T=0.00727kmol+0.00625kmol+0.0139kmol=0.02742kmol

After that, since the process is isobaric, we can compute the work as:

W=P(V_2-V_1)

Therefore, we need to compute both the initial and final volumes which are at 260 °C and 95 °C respectively for the same moles and pressure (isobaric closed system)

V_1=\frac{n_TRT_1}{P}= \frac{0.02742kmol*8.314\frac{kPa*m^3}{kmol\times K}*(260+273)K}{450kPa}=0.27m^3\\ \\V_2=\frac{n_TRT_2}{P}= \frac{0.02742kmol*8.314\frac{kPa*m^3}{kmol\times K}*(95+273)K}{450kPa}=0.19m^3

Thereby, the magnitude and direction of work turn out:

W=450kPa(0.19m^3-0.27m^3)\\\\W=-37.6kJ

Thus, we conclude that since it is negative, work is done on the system (first law of thermodynamics).

Regards.

A certain material has a mass of 12.48 g while occupying 12.48 cm3 of space. What is this material?
Salsk061 [2.6K]
This material has a density of 1 g/cm3.
(since 12.48 g/ 12.48 cm3 = 1 g/cm3)

Therefore, this material is water.

If 8.700 g of c6h6 is burned and the heat produced from the burning is added to 5691 g of water at 21 °c, what is the final tem
leonid [27]
C₆H₆ is benzene which has a molar mass of 78 g/mol. When benzene is burned, the reaction is called combustion. The heat produced in this reaction is called the heat of combustion. For benzene, the heat of combustion is -3271 kJ/mol.

Heat of benzene = (8.7 g)(1 mol/78 g)(-3271 kJ/mol) = -364.84 kJ

By conservation of energy,
Heat of benzene = - Heat of water
where
Heat of Water = mCp(Tf - T₀)
where Cp for water is 4.187 kJ/kg·°C

Thus,

-364.84 kJ = -(5691 g)(1 kg/1000 g)(4.187 kJ/kg·°C)(Tf - 21)
<em>Tf = 36.31°C</em>
