A piston confines 0.200 mol Ne(g) in 1.20 at 25 degree C. Two experiments are performed. (a) The gas is allowed to expand throug

h an additional 1.20 L against a constant of 1.00atm. (b) The gas is allowed to expand reversibly and isothermally to the same final volume. Please calculate the work done by the gas system in these two processes, respectively. Which process does more work? (revised from 6/e exercise 8.11) Please show calculation details.

Answer:

The second experiment (reversible path) does more work

Explanation:

Step 1:

A piston confines 0.200 mol Ne(g) in 1.20L at 25 degree °C

<em>(a) The gas is allowed to expand through an additional 1.20 L against a constant of 1.00atm</em>

<em></em>

Irreversible path: w =-Pex*ΔV

⇒ with Pex = 1.00 atm

⇒ with ΔV = 1.20 L

W = -(1.00 atm) * 1.20 L

W = -1.20L*atm *101.325 J /1 L*atm = -121.59 J

<em>(b) The gas is allowed to expand reversibly and isothermally to the same final volume.</em>

<em></em>

W = -nRTln(Vfinal/Vinitial)

⇒ with n = the number of moles = 0.200

⇒ with R = gas constant = 8.3145 J/K*mol

⇒ with T = 298 Kelvin

⇒ with Vfinal/Vinitial  = 2.40/1.20 = 2

W = -(0.200mol) * 8.3145 J/K*mol *298K *ln(2.4/1.2)

W = -343.5 J

The second experiment (reversible path) does more work

Calculate the tempature of a 0.50 mol sample of a gas at a pressure of 0.987 atm and a volume of 12 L
dalvyx [7]

Answer:

The temperature is 288, 88K

Explanation:

We use the formula PV= nRT:

T= PV/nR

T= 0,987 atm x12 L/0,50 mol x 0,082 l atm/K mol

<em>T=288,88K</em>
