Answer:

a) the final volume is 38.285 L

b)

w = - 1839.158 J,

q = 0,

ΔU = - 1839.158 J

Explanation:

Given that;

number of moles n = 2

initial pressure p1 = 3 atm

external pressure p_ext = 1 atm

temperature T1 = 350 k

we know that gas constant R = 8.315 JK⁻¹mol¹ = 0.08206 L atm K⁻¹ mol⁻¹

a)

to determine the initial volume , we use the equation for ideal gas;

V1 = nRT1/p1

so we substitute

V1 = (2 × 0.08206 × 350) / 3

V1 = 57.442 . 3

V1 = 19.147 L

given that, the gas is expanded irreversibly and adiabatically until the volume has doubled;

so Final volume v2 will be;

V2 = 2 × V1

V2 = 2 × 19.147 L

V2 = 38.285 L  

Therefore, the final volume is 38.285 L

 

b)

to determine w, q and U;

we know that, work done in gas expansion at a constant speed is expressed in the following equation;

w = -p_ext ΔV

where ΔV is change in volume

so we substitute

w = -( 1 atm) ( 38.285 L - 19.147 L)

w = -( 1 atm) ( 19.138 L)

w = -(19.138 L-atm)

we know that 1 L-atm = 101.325 J.

so

w = -(19.138 × 101.325 J)

w = - 1839.158 J

now, since there is no transfer of heat into or out of the system for the adiabatic process;

q = 0

using the first law of thermodynamics, changes in internal energy will be;

ΔU = q + w

we substitute

ΔU = 0 + ( - 1839.158 J )

ΔU = - 1839.158 J

A 4,000 mL solution of AgNO3 contains 17.00 g of solute in water. Calculate the molar concentration of the solution.
blsea [12.9K]
The molarity is moles/liters.

First, convert 4,000 mL to L:

4000 mL --> 4 L

Now, you must convert the 17 g of solute to moles by dividing the number of grams by the molar mass. The molar mass of AgNO3 is <span>169.87 g/mol:

17 / 169.87 = .1

Now that you have both the number of moles and the liters, plug them into the initial equation of moles/liters:

.1/4 = .025</span>

Disadvantages of Mendeleev's periodic table​
mestny [16]

Answer:

Various limitations of Mendeleev's periodic table are:-

Position of hydrogen - he couldn't assign a correct position to hydrogen as it showed properties of both alkali and halogens .

Position of isotopes - he considered that the properties of elements are a function of their atomic masses. Hence isotopes of a same element couldn't be placed.

In the d-block , elements with lower atomic number were placed before higher atomic number.

Scientists' belief that an atom is a solid sphere, is good enough to explain; PLZ I HAVE LESS TIME!!!!
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

Its quite vague, instead you could say an atom is the smallest building block which further consists of subatomic particles like protons, neutrons and electrons :)

Hope thi helps :) and I'd appreciate if you'd mark brainliest because ive been stuck on the same rank for quite a long time :(
