A piston system absorbs 50.5 J of energy in the form of heat from the surroundings. The piston is working against a pressure of

0.491 atm. The final volume of the system is 56.2 L. What was the initial volume of the system if the internal energy of the system decreased by 106.0 J? (To convert between L∙atm and J, use 1 L∙atm = 101.3 J.)

Answer:

The initial volume of the system: <u>V₁ = 53.06 L</u>

Explanation:

Given: heat absorbed by system: q =  50.5 J, Pressure: P = 0.491 atm, Final volume: V₂ = 56.2 L, The change in the internal energy: ΔE = -106.0 J

Initial volume: V₁ = ? L

<u>According to the First Law of Thermodynamics</u>:

ΔE = q - PΔV

⇒ PΔV = q - ΔE = 50.5 J - (-106.0 J) = 156.5 J

As, 1 L∙atm = 101.3 J  ⇒   1 J = (1 ÷ 101.3) L∙atm

⇒ PΔV = 156.5 J = (156.5 ÷ 101.3) L∙atm = 1.54 L∙atm

So,

ΔV = 1.54 L∙atm ÷ P = 1.54 L∙atm ÷ 0.491 atm = 3.14 L

∵ ΔV = V₂ - V₁ = 3.14 L

⇒ V₁ = V₂ -  3.14 L = 56.2 L -  3.14 L = <u>53.06 L</u>

<u>Therefore, the initial volume of the system: V₁ = 53.06 L</u>

Aloiza [94]
The given above pretty much states already that with the presence of the calcium carbonate which acts as the buffer will allow the solution to withstand changes in acidity. The greater the amount, the higher chances that it will be able to withstand the said changes. Therefore, if Lake X had greater ppm of CaCO3 then, it will be able to withstand greater amount of acid rain.

Classify each of the observed changes according to whether or not they are likely to represent evidence that a chemical reaction
Mama L [17]

Answer:

a solution color becoming less intense  due to dilution- is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

bubbles (gas formation) - evidence of a chemical reaction

explosion or fire - evidence of a chemical reaction

changes in color- evidence of a chemical reaction

precipitation- evidence of a chemical reaction

changes in temperature - evidence of a chemical reaction

a solid liquifying - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

solution colors mixing - is not an evidence of a chemical reaction

Explanation:

A chemical change is not easily reversible and yields new substances. It is often accompanied by a loss or gain of heat.

In the answer section, i have shown some evidences that lead us to conclude that a chemical reaction has taken place. The occurrence of a chemical change often goes with the formation of new substances as earlier stated and any of these signs may accompany the process.

For instance, when a metal is dropped in dilute acid solution, bubble of hydrogen gas indicates that a chemical reaction has taken place.
