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.

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

The correct answer would be - lose their native habitats are forced to migrate into new areas in search of shelter and food.

Explanation:

The removal of trees or deforestation to build a housing or city planning or development impact the birds and other animals of that area. Cutting most of the trees from the area will result in a decrease in available food, shelter, and breeding habitat.

It causes complete removal of bird species and forced them to migrate to a new place in search of places that will provide a source of shelter and food for birds.

1. write the complete chemical symbol for the ion with 14 protons 15 neutrons and 18 electrons
motikmotik

Answer:

1.   Si^{-4}

2.  Co^{+2}

Explanation:

An ion is formed when an atom that is said to be neutral gains or losses electrons.

It is thought that a negative ion (anion) is produced as it gains electrons and a positive ion (cation) is formed when it loses an electron.

Atomic number is the total number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom.

From the information

Protons = 14

electron = 18

Net Charge = no of proton - no of electron

= 14 - 18 = -4

Mass number = 14 + 15 = 29

Thus, the chemical symbol = Si^{-4}

For ion with 27 proton, 32 neutrons and 25 electrons

Net charge = 27 - 25 = +2

Mass number = 27 + 32 = 59

Thus, the chemical symbol = Co^{+2}
