An ideal monatomic gas initially has a temperature of 300 K and a pressure of 5.79 atm. It is to expand from volume 420 cm3 to v

olume 1450 cm3. If the expansion is isothermal, what are (a) the final pressure and (b) the work done by the gas

Answer:

a) The final pressure is 1.68 atm.

b) The work done by the gas is 305.3 J.

Explanation:

a) The final pressure of an isothermal expansion is given by:

T = \frac{PV}{nR}

T_{i} = T_{f}

\frac{P_{i}V_{i}}{nR} = \frac{P_{f}V_{f}}{nR}

Where:

P_{i}: is the initial pressure = 5.79 atm

P_{f}: is the final pressure =?

V_{i}: is the initial volume = 420 cm³

V_{f}: is the final volume = 1450 cm³

n: is the number of moles of the gas

R: is the gas constant

P_{f} = \frac{P_{i}V_{i}}{V_{f}} = \frac{5.79 atm*420 cm^{3}}{1450 cm^{3}} = 1.68 atm

Hence, the final pressure is 1.68 atm.

b) The work done by the isothermal expansion is:

W = P_{i}V_{i}ln(\frac{V_{f}}{V_{i}}) = 5.79 atm*\frac{101325 Pa}{1 atm}*420 cm^{3}*\frac{1 m^{3}}{(100 cm)^{3}}ln(\frac{1450 cm^{3}}{420 cm^{3}}) = 305.3 J

Therefore, the work done by the gas is 305.3 J.

I hope it helps you!

Which method can be used for separating a mixture of sand and salt?
Veronika [31]
Answers A and C can be automatically eliminated because evaporation has to do with the water cycle and magnetism has to do with electric current and such. Next we can eliminate B or distillation because it also has to do with water/liquids. Therefore, the answer is D or filtration because it is the only answer left.

I hope this helps!
