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

What type of radioactivity occurs in nuclear reactor if a neutron and uranium are the typical reactants
prisoha [69]

Answer:

Fission. When a large fissile atomic nucleus such as uranium-235 or plutonium-239 absorbs a neutron, it may undergo nuclear fission. The heavy nucleus splits into two or more lighter nuclei, (the fission products), releasing kinetic energy, gamma radiation, and free neutrons.
