Answer:

a) 0 J

b) W = nRTln(Vf/Vi)

c) ΔQ = nRTln(Vf/Vi)

d) ΔQ = W

Explanation:

a) To find the change in the internal energy you use the 1st law of thermodynamics:

\Delta U=\Delta Q-W

Q: heat transfer

W: work done by the gas

The gas is compressed isothermally, then, there is no change in the internal energy and you have

ΔU = 0 J

b) The work is done by the gas, not over the gas.

The work is given by the following formula:

\\W=nRTln(\frac{V_f}{V_i})

n: moles

R: ideal gas constant

T: constant temperature

Vf: final volume

Vi: initial volume

Vf < Vi, then W < 0 and the work is done on the gas

c) The gas has been compressed. Thus, its temperature increases and heat has been transferred to the gas.

The amount of heat is equal to the work done W

d)

\Delta U = \Delta Q-W\\\\0=\Delta Q-W\\\\\Delta Q=W=nRTln(\frac{V_f}{V_i})

One molecule of bromine (Br2) and two molecules of potassium chloride (KCI) combine in a reaction. How many atoms are in the pro
Liula [17]

In the reaction between 1 molecule of bromine and 2 molecules of potassium chloride, there are six atoms in the products.

Let's consider the balanced equation for the reaction between 1 molecule of bromine and 2 molecules of potassium chloride. This is a single replacement reaction.

Br₂ + 2 KCl ⇒ 2 KBr + Cl₂

We obtain as products, 2 molecules of potassium bromide and 1 molecule of chlorine.

  • 1 molecule of KBr has 2 atoms, so 2 molecules contribute with 4 atoms.
  • 1 molecule of Cl₂ has 2 atoms.
  • The 4 atoms from KBr and the 2 atoms from Cl₂ make a total of 6 atoms.

In the reaction between 1 molecule of bromine and 2 molecules of potassium chloride, there are six atoms in the products.

k0ka [10]
Pressure is given by:
P=F/A
force=1200*10=12000 N
Area=pi*r^2=3.14*0.15^2
=0.07065 m^2
Thus;
P=12000/0.7065
P=169,851.38 N/m^2
but
1 N/m^2=1 Pa
thus our pressure is:
169,851.38 Pa
