baric process until the final temperature becomes 350 C and the final volume is 1 m . For this process, determine: (a) The reduced pressure and the reduced temperature of the initial state. (b) The initial volume of the piston-cylinder (in m3). (c) The mass of CO2 in the piston-cylinder (in kg). (d) The total boundary work for the process (in kJ). (e) The amount of heat transfer during the cooling process (in kJ).

Answer:

(a) The reduced pressure is 0.2711 MPa

The reduced temperature is 2.54 K

(b) The initial volume of the piston is approximately 0.806 m³

(c) The mass of CO₂ is approximately 16.9884 kg

(d) The work done, W is approximately 388.023 kJ

(e) The heat transfer is approximately -2,650.1904 kJ

Explanation:

The initial temperature of the piston-cylinder, T₁ = 500°C = 773.15 K

The initial pressure of the gas, P₁ = 2 MPa

The final temperature of the gas, T₂ = 350°C

The final volume of the gas = 1 m³

(a) For an isobaric process, we have;

The reduced pressure,

P_r = \dfrac{P}{P_c}

The critical pressure of carbon dioxide, P_c = 7.3773 MPa

P_r = \dfrac{2 \, MPa}{7.3773 \, MPa} \approx 0.2711 \, MPa

The reduced pressure, P_r = 0.2711 MPa

The critical temperature, T_c = 304.13 K

The reduced temperature, T_r, is given by the following formula;

T_r = \dfrac{T}{T_c}

Therefore, T_r = (773.15 K)/(304.13 K) = 2.54216947 K

The reduced temperature, T_r ≈ 2.54 K

(b) The initial volume of the piston, V₁ = (V₂/T₂) × T₁

∴ V₁ = (1 m³/773.15) × 623.15 = 0.80598848865 m³  ≈ 0.806 m³

The initial volume of the piston, V₁ ≈ 0.806 m³

(c) The number of moles of CO₂ in the cylinder, 'n', is given according to the following formula;

n = P·V/(T·R)

The universal gas constant, n = (2 × 10⁶Pa × 1 m³)/(623.15 K × 8.3145 J/(mol·K)) ≈ 386.0124 moles

The mass of CO₂ ≈ 386.0124 moles × 44.01 g/mol = 16.9884 kg

(d) The work done, W = P·(V_f - V_i)

W = 2 × 10⁶ × (1 - 0.80598848865) = 388023.0227

The work done, W ≈ 388.023 kJ

(e) The heat transfer dQ = m·c_p ×(T₂ - T₁)

c_p for CO₂ ≈ 1.04 kJ/(kg·K)

∴ dQ = 16.9884 × 1.04 × (350 - 500) = -2,650.1904 kJ

Therefore, the heat transfer = dQ = -2,650.1904 kJ

You repeated a measurement 6 times and recorded the time using a stop watch: 5.8s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 4.3s, 4.6s. What average va
iVinArrow [24]

Answer and Explanation

Arranging the measured values in increasing order;

4.3s, 4.6s, 4.6s, 4.8s, 5.1s, 5.8s

The two outliers are obviously 4.3s and 5.8s; An outlier is a value in a statistical sample which does not fit a pattern that describes most other data point. Outliers make the average value complicated. So, it is usually better for data to be precise with data points spreading out around a small area.

So, the mean is the average of the four remaining data points after removing the outliers.

Mean = (4.6 + 4.6 + 4.8 + 5.1)/4

Mean = 4.775s

So, the value recorded should be 4.775s, 4.78s or 4.8s depending on the number of decimal places allowed.

Antifreeze is a "must have" in an Albertan winter because it helps keep your vehicle engine from freezing in cold temperatures.
Natasha_Volkova [10]

Products such as antifreeze are composed of organic compounds that are classified as <em>alcohols</em>. (a)

Maybe those other classes of chemicals also lower the freezing temperature of water, just like alcohol does.  I don't know.  But alcohol is what's used to make anti-freeze.  I'm guessing alcohol must be cheaper, less toxic, and less corrosive inside the engines' cooling systems than any of that other stuff is.

What pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c?
Ronch [10]

The pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c is 4.1atm.

Therefore, option A is correct option.

Given,

Mass m = 14g

Volume= 3.5L

Temperature T= 75+273 = 348 K

Molar mass of CO = 28g/mol

Universal gas constant R= 0.082057L

Number of moles in 14 g of CO is

n= mass/ molar mass

= 14/28

= 0.5 mol

As we know that

PV= nRT

P × 3.5 = 0.5 × 0.082057 × 348

P × 3.5 = 14.277

P = 14.277/3.5

P = 4.0794 atm

P = 4.1 atm.

Thus we concluded that the pressure will 14. 0 g of co exert in a 3. 5 l container at 75°c is 4.1atm.

During an investigation, a scientist heated 123.6 g of copper carbonate till it decomposed to form a black residue. The total ma
zloy xaker [14]

Answer:

See below explanation

Explanation:

The correspondent chemical reaction for copper carbonate decomposed by heat is:

CuCO₃ (s) → CuO (s) + CO₂ (g)

Considering all molar mass (MM) for each element ( we consider rounded numbers) :

MM CuCO₃ = 123 g/mol

MM CuO = 79 g/mol

MM CO₂ = 44 g/mol

Statement mentions that scientis heated 123.6 g of CuCO₃ (almost a MM), until a black residue is obtained, which weights 79.6 g : this solid residue is formed by CuO, and the remaining mass (approximatelly 44 g) belongs to teh second product, this is, CO₂; as it is a gas compund, it is not certainly included on the solid residue.

So, law of conservation mass is true for this case, since: 123.6 g = 79.6 g + 44 g. As explained, on the solid residue, we don not include the 44 g, which  "escaped" from our system, since it is a gas compound (CO₂)
