A cylinder with a moving piston expands from an initial volume of 0.250 L against an external pressure of 2.00 atm. The expansio

n does 288 J of work on the surroundings. What is the final volume of the cylinder? (1 LLaTeX: \cdot⋅atm = 101.3 J) Group of answer choices

Answer:

The final volume of the cylinder is 1.67 L

Explanation:

Step 1: Data given

Initial volume = 0.250 L

external pressure = 2.00 atm

Expansion does 288 J of work on the surroundings

Step 2: Definition of reversible work:

Wrev = -P(V2-V1) = -288 J

The gas did work, so V2>V1  (volume expands) and the work has a negative sign.(Wrev<0)

V2 = (-Wrev/P)  + V1

⇒ with Wrev = reverse work (in J)

⇒ with P = the external pressure (in atm)

⇒ with V1 = the initial volume

We can see that your pressure is in  atm  and energy in J

To convert from J to L * atm we should use a convenient conversion unit using the universal gas constants :

R = 8.314472 J/mol *K and R= 0.08206 L*atm/K*mol

V2 =- (-288 J * (0.08206 L*atm/K*mol  /8.314 J/mol *K))/2.00 atm  + 0.250L

V2 = 1.67 L

The final volume of the cylinder is 1.67 L

This year course engages students in becoming skilled readers of prose written in a variety of periods, disciplines, and

rhetorical contexts and in becoming skilled writers who compose for a variety of purposes. More immediately, the course

prepares the students to perform satisfactorily on the A.P. Examination in Language and Composition given in the spring.

Both their writing and their reading should make students aware of the interactions among a writer’s purposes, audience

expectations, and subjects as well as the way generic conventions and the resources of language contribute to effectiveness

in writing. Students will learn and practice the expository, analytical, and argumentative writing that forms the basis of

academic and professional writing; they will learn to read complex texts with understanding and to write prose of

sufficient richness and complexity to communicate effectively with mature readers. Readings will be selected primarily,

but not exclusively, from American writers. Students who enroll in the class will take the AP examination.

Under certain conditions, the substance ammonium chloride can be broken down to form ammonia and hydrogen chloride. If 29.4 gram
lina2011 [118]

Answer: 20.0 g of hydrogen chloride must simultaneously be formed

Explanation:

The balanced chemical reaction is :

NH_4Cl\rightarrow NH_3+HCl

According to the law of conservation of mass, mass can neither be created nor be destroyed. The mass on reactant side must be equal to the mass on product side.

Thus mass of reactants = mass of products

Given : mass of ammonium chloride = mass of reactants = 29.4 g

mass of ammonia = 9.4 g

mass of products = mass of ammonia + mass of hydrogen chloride

9.4 g +mass of hydrogen chloride = 29.4 g

mass of hydrogen chloride = 20.0 g
