How many significant figures does 0.00340 have?
True [87]
Greetings!

"<span>How many significant figures does 0.00340 have?"...

A significant figure is:
-A non zero number
-A zero in between non zero numbers
-Trailing zeros to the right of the decimal point

Therefore, this number has three significant figures:
3,4,0

Hope this helps.

A mole of ideal gas expands at T=27 °C. The pressure changes from 20 atm to 1 atm. What’s the work that the gas has done and wha
Airida [17]

Answer:

  • The work made by the gas is 7475.69 joules
  • The heat absorbed is 7475.69 joules

Explanation:

<h3>Work</h3>

We know that the differential work made by the gas  its defined as:

dW =  P \ dv

We can solve this by integration:

\Delta W = \int\limits_{s_1}^{s_2}\,dW = \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv

but, first, we need to find the dependence of Pressure with Volume. For this, we can use the ideal gas law

P \ V = \ n \ R \ T

P = \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{V}

This give us

\int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv = \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{V} \ dv

As n, R and T are constants

\int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} P \ dv = \ n \ R \ T \int\limits_{v_1}^{v_2} \frac{1}{V} \ dv

\Delta W= \ n \ R \ T  \left [ ln (V) \right ]^{v_2}_{v_1}

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ( ln (v_2) - ln (v_1 )

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ( ln (v_2) - ln (v_1 )

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ln (\frac{v_2}{v_1})

But the volume is:

V = \frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P}

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ln(\frac{\frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P_2}}{\frac{\ n \ R \ T}{P_1}} )

\Delta W = \ n \ R \ T  ln(\frac{P_1}{P_2})

Now, lets use the value from the problem.

The temperature its:

T = 27 \° C = 300.15 \ K

The ideal gas constant:

R = 8.314 \frac{m^3 \ Pa}{K \ mol}

So:

\Delta W = \ 1 mol \ 8.314 \frac{m^3 \ Pa}{K \ mol} \ 300.15 \ K  ln (\frac{20 atm}{1 atm})

\Delta W = 7475.69 joules

<h3>Heat</h3>

We know that, for an ideal gas, the energy is:

E= c_v n R T

where c_v its the internal energy of the gas. As the temperature its constant, we know that the gas must have the energy is constant.

By the first law of thermodynamics, we know

\Delta E = \Delta Q - \Delta W

where \Delta W is the Work made by the gas (please, be careful with this sign convention, its not always the same.)

So:

\Delta E = 0

\Delta Q = \Delta W
