Consider a cylinder of a gasoline engine at the beginning of the compression cycle, during which a fuel/air mixture (for our pur

poses mostly composed of nitrogen and oxygen, i.e. an ideal gas of diatomic molecules) at 300 K and 1 bar is compressed down to one-tenth volume (compression ratio of 10:1). Assume that the compression is rapid so no heat exchange occurs with the environment. Calculate the pressure and the temperature of the compressed gas. In a diesel engine the compression ratios are typically much higher; redo the same calculation with the compression ratio of 20:1.

Answer:

(i) Final pressure and temperature are 25.119 bar and 753.566 K, (ii) Final pressure and temperature are 66.289 bar and 994.336 K.

Explanation:

This system experiments an adiabatic compression, as such compression happens with no heat interaction between the piston-cylinder device and surroundings. This is a particular case of polytropic process, in which there is no entropy generation according to the Second Law of Thermodynamics.

The compression process is represented by the following formulas:

\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}} = \left(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} \right) ^{\gamma} (Eq. 1)

\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}} = \left(\frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} \right)^{\gamma - 1} (Eq. 2)

Where:

p_{1}, p_{2} - Initial and final pressures, measured in bar.

T_{1}, T_{2} - Initial and final temperatures, measured in Kelvins.

V_{1}, V_{2} - Initial and final volumes, measured in cubic meters.

\gamma - Specific heat ratio of air, dimensionless.

From Theory of Diesel and Otto Cycles we know that compression ratio is defined as:

r_{c} = \frac{V_{1}}{V_{2}} (Eq. 3)

And (Eqs. 1, 2) can be rewritten as follows:

\frac{p_{2}}{p_{1}} = r_{c}^{\gamma} (Eq. 1b)

\frac{T_{2}}{T_{1}}  = r_{c}^{\gamma - 1} (Eq. 2b)

Then, we clear final pressure and pressure in each expression and calculate them for each case:

p_{2} = p_{1}\cdot r_{c}^{\gamma}

T_{2} = T_{1}\cdot r_{c}^{\gamma-1}

(i) r_{c} = 10, p_{1} = 1\,bar, T_{1} = 300\,K, \gamma = 1.4

p_{2} = (1\,bar)\cdot 10^{1.4}

p_{2} = 25.119\,bar

T_{2} = (300\,K)\cdot 10^{0.4}

T_{2} = 753.566\,K

Final pressure and temperature are 25.119 bar and 753.566 K.

(ii) r_{c} = 20, p_{1} = 1\,bar, T_{1} = 300\,K, \gamma = 1.4

p_{2} = (1\,bar)\cdot 20^{1.4}

p_{2} = 66.289\,bar

T_{2} = (300\,K)\cdot 20^{0.4}

T_{2} = 994.336\,K

Final pressure and temperature are 66.289 bar and 994.336 K.

What are the products in this chemical reaction? 2H3PO4+3Ca(OH)2→Ca3(PO4)2+6H2O
finlep [7]
<h2>Answer:C</h2>

Explanation:

A chemical equation is a equation that describes a corresponding chemical reaction.

A chemical reaction is generally written as

reactants→products

reactants refer to all the reactants involved in the chemical reaction.

Reactants are usually written on the left hand side of the chemical equation.

products refer to all the products formed in the chemical reaction.

products are usually written on the right hand side of the chemical equation.

In the given reaction,Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2},H_{2}O are written on the right side of the equation.

So,Ca_{3}(PO_{4})_{2},H_{2}O are the products.

What is the oxidation number of chromium in dichromate ion, cr2o72-?
castortr0y [4]
Oxidation number is charge of element in compound. Can be neutral, positive or negative.
Oxygen in dichromate has oxidation number -2, becauce there are seven oxygens, net oxidation number of oxygen is -14.
2·x(oxidation number of Cr) + 7· (-2) = -2   2x= +12
x= +6, oxidation number of one chromium is +6.

Describe two physical and two chemical changes involved in cooking. (4 points)
Ivenika [448]
Physical changes are when things get changed without altering chemical consistencies, which is melting solid butter into liquid one, or boiling water. Chemical changes are things such as caramelizing sugar when making sweets, or when carbon dioxide is created and released when baking bread.

Which is the best description of the chemical reaction shown here in aqueous solution? ch3ch2cooh (aq) ↔ ch3ch2coo- (aq) + h+ (a
AnnZ [28]
The given reaction: 
<span>ch3ch2cooh (aq) ↔ ch3ch2coo- (aq) + h+ (aq)
is called a reversible reaction.

This means that, the reaction does not reach an end point.
In this type of reactions, reactants react together to form products, while products combine together to form reactants.
So, the reaction proceeds in both direction forming both reactants and products.</span>
