Which word best discribes entropy

1 answer:

4 0

Entropy, the measure of a system's thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work. Because work is obtained from ordered molecular motion, the amount of entropy is also a measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system.

A sample of gas contains 3.0L of nitrogen at 320kPa. What volume would be necessary to decrease the pressure at 110kPa

Phoenix [80]

Answer:

$V_{2} = 8.92 L$

Explanation:

We have the equation for ideal gas expressed as:

PV=nRT

Being:

P = Pressure

V = Volume

n = molar number

R = Universal gas constant

T = Temperature

From the statement of the problem I infer that we are looking to change the volume and the pressure, maintaining the temperature, so I can calculate the right side of the equation with the data of the initial condition of the gas:

$P_{1} V_{1} =nRT$
