Three 1.0-l flasks, maintained at 308 k, are connected to each other with stopcocks. initially the stopcocks are closed. one of

the flasks contains 1.5 atm of n2, the second 2.2 g of h2o, and the third, 0.30 g of ethanol, c2h6o. the vapor pressure of h2o at 308 k is 42 mmhg and that of ethanol is 102 mmhg. the stopcocks are then opened and the contents mix freely. what is the pressure

Answer:

0.6103 atm.

Explanation:

  • We need to calculate the vapor pressure of each component after the stopcocks are opened.
  • Volume after the stopcocks are opened = 3.0 L.

<u><em>1) For N₂:</em></u>

P₁V₁ = P₂V₂

P₁ = 1.5 atm & V₁ = 1.0 L & V₂ = 3.0 L.

P₂ of N₂ = P₁V₁ / V₂ = (1.5 atm) (1.0 L) / (3.0 L) = 0.5 atm.

<u><em>2) For H₂O:</em></u>

Pressure of water at 308 K is 42.0 mmHg.

we need to convert from mmHg to atm: <em>(1.0 atm = 760.0 mmHg)</em>.

P of H₂O = (1.0 atm x 42.0 mmHg) / (760.0 mmHg) = 0.0553 atm.

We must check if more 2.2 g of water is evaporated,

n = PV/RT = (0.0553 atm) (3.0 L) / (0.082 L.atm/mol.K) (308 K) = 0.00656 mole.

m = n x cmolar mass = (0.00656 mole) (18.0 g/mole) = 0.118 g.

It is lower than the mass of water in the flask (2.2 g).

<em><u>3) For C₂H₅OH:</u></em>

Pressure of C₂H₅OH at 308 K is 102.0 mmHg.

we need to convert from mmHg to atm: (1.0 atm = 760.0 mmHg).

P of C₂H₅OH = (1.0 atm x 102.0 mmHg) / (760.0 mmHg) = 0.13421 atm.

We must check if more 0.3 g of C₂H₅OH is evaporated,

n = PV/RT = (0.13421 atm) (3.0 L) / (0.082 L.atm/mol.K) (308 K) = 0.01594 mole.

m = n x molar mass = (0.01594 mole) (46.07 g/mole) = 0.7344 g.

<em>It is more than the amount in the flask (0.3 g), so the pressure should be less than 0.13421 atm.</em>

We have n = mass / molar mass = (0.30 g) / (46.07 g/mole) = 0.00651 mole.

So, P of C₂H₅OH = nRT / V = (0.00651 mole) (0.082 L.atm/mole.K) (308.0 K) / (3.0 L) = 0.055 atm.

  • <em>So, </em><em>total pressure</em><em> = </em><em>P of N₂ + P of H₂O + P of C₂H₅OH</em><em> = 0.5 atm + 0.0553 atm + 0.055 atm = </em><em>0.6103 atm</em><em>.</em>

The maximum efficiency possible in an energy conversion process that is not limited by the second law of thermodynamics
Anna [14]

Answer:

100 %

Explanation:

The maximun efficiency possible (whem not limited by the  second law of thermodynamics) happens when all the energy used is transformed into the type of energy we required with no other transformations.

For example, in an engine we want that all the energy we supply is being converted to work. That's the ideal case, but in reality always some of that energy is lost in the form of heat.
