Answer:
<em>The internal energy change is 330.01 J</em>
Explanation:
Given
the initial volume = 5.75 L
the final volume = 1.23 L
is the external pressure = 1.00 atm
q the heat energy removed = -128 J (since is removed from the system)
expansion against a constant external pressure is an example of an irreversible pathway, here pressure in is greater than pressure out and can be obtained thus;
W = -ΔV
W = -1.00 x(1.23 - 5.75)
W = -1.00 x -4.52
W = 4.52 L atm
converting to joules we have
W = 4.52 L atm x 101.33 J/ L atm = 458.01 J
The internal energy change during compression can be calculated thus;
ΔU = q + W
ΔU = -128 J + 458.01 J
ΔU = 330.01 J
Therefore the internal energy change is 330.01 J
