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

Container A holds 722 mL 722 mL of an ideal gas at 2.40 atm. 2.40 atm. Container B holds 169 mL 169 mL of a different ideal gas
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

The resulting pressure is 2.81 atm

Explanation:

According to Dalton's Law of Partial Pressure, each of the gases (A and B) will exert their pressure independently. If we use Boyle's Law to calculate the pressure of each of the gases separately we have:

Pressure of gas A:

p1V1 = p2V2

p1 = 2.4 atm

V1 = 722 mL

V2 = 722 + 169 = 891 mL

p2 =?

Clearing p2:

p2 = (p1V1)/V2 = (2.4*722)/891 = 1.94 atm

Pressure of gas B:

p1 = 4.6 atm

V1 = 169 mL

V2 = 169+722 = 891 mL

p2=?

Clearing p:

p2 = (4.6*169)/891 = 0.87 atm

Dalton's expression for total partial pressures is equal to:

ptotal = pA + pB = 1.94+0.87 = 2.81 atm

Crystalline solids do not have a sharp melting point.<br><br> TRUE<br><br> FALSE
Ugo [173]

The statement about “Crystalline solids do not have a sharp melting point” is false. Crystalline solids are solids that have particles arranged in a regular, repeating patterns. They are held together by uniform intermolecular forces. The faces intersect at a specific angle that identifies that substance. They have distinctive internal structures that in turn lead to distinctive flat surfaces. These flat surfaces give a short rage order. When exposed to x – ray diffractometers, they exhibit a distinctive pattern used to identify the material. They give the same face when you turn a crystalline solid around

iragen [17]
Option are as follow,

A. temperature, concentration and surface area 
<span>B. temperature, and concentration only </span>
<span>C. concentration and surface area only </span>
<span>D. temperature and surface area only
</span>
Answer:
           Option-<span>A. Temperature, Concentration and Surface area
</span>
Explanation:

1) Increasing Temperature:
                                              Increase in temperature increases the Kinetic energy of molecules. This results in increase in the velocity and rate of collisions between reactants. Hence, greater the number of collisions between reactants per time greater will be the probability of formation of product per unit time.

2) Increasing Concentration
                                            Increase in concentration results in increase in number of particles of reactants per unit area, hence collision rate increases resulting in rate of reaction.

3) Increasing Surface Area
                                             Grinding of Zn results in the increase of surface area of Zinc. So greater the surface area greater is the exposure of Zinc metal to HCl molecules, hence the rate of formation of product increases.
