Suppose that 33.3 J of heat is added to an ideal gas. The gas expands at a constant pressure of 1.45 104 Pa while changing its v
levacccp [35]

Answer:

ΔU = 25.8 J

Explanation:

The gas absorbs 33.3 J of heat, that is, Q = 33.3 J.

The work (W) of expansion can be calculated using the following expression:

W = -P. ΔV

where,

P is the external pressure

ΔV is the change in volume

W = -1.45 × 10⁴ N . m⁻² × (8.40 × 10⁻⁴ m³ - 3.24 × 10⁻⁴ m³) = -7.48 J

The change in the internal energy (ΔU) is:

ΔU = Q + W

ΔU =  33.3 J + (-7.48 J) = 25.8 J

A kernel of popcorn contains a small amount of water and when heated the popcorn pops. How can you explain this to someone
Aliun [14]
When you put a popcorn kernel in a microwave, the microwave heats up the water. The water then evaporates, and the air wants to escape. There will be so much pressure that the skin/shell of the kernel will break, exposing the corn.
