A horizontal cylinder equipped with a frictionless piston contains 785 cm3 of steam at 400 K and 125 kPa pressure. A total of 83

.8 J of heat is transferred to the steam, causing the steam temperature and steam volume to rise at constant pressure (125 kPa). The specific enthalpy (in J/mol) of steam at 125 kPa varies with temperature as 34980+35.5T (where temperature T is in K). Taking the steam as the system, formulate the first law of thermodynamics. Then calculate
a. find the steam temperature in K
b. final cylinder volume
c. work is done by the steam
d. change in internal energy of the steam in J

Answer:

a. 478.69 K

b. 939.43 cm^{3}

c. 19.30 J

d. 64.5J

Explanation:

From the question, we can identify the following;

V_{o} = 785cm^{3} = 0.000785 m^{3}

T_{o} = 400K

P_{o} = 125 Kpa =  125 000 Pa

Using the ideal gas equation,

PV = nRT

where R is the molar gas constant = 8.314 m^{3}⋅Pa⋅K^{-1}⋅mol^{-1}

Thus, n = PV/RT = (125000 × 0.000785)/(8.314 × 400) = 0.03 mol

a. Steam temperature in K

To calculate this, we use the constant pressure process;

q = nΔH

Where q is 83.8J according to the question

Thus;

83.8 = 0.03 × [34980 + 35.5T_{1} - (34980 + 35.5T_{o})]

83.8 = (0.03 × 35.5) (T_{1} - 400K)

83.8 = 1.065 (T_{1}  - 400)

78.69 = (T_{1}  - 400)

T_{1} = 400 + 78.69

T_{1}  = 478.69 K

b. Final cylinder volume

To calculate this, we make use of the Charles' law(Temperature and pressure are directly proportional)

V_{1}/T_{1} = V_{o}/T_{o}

V_{1}  =  V_{o}T_{1}/T_{o}

V_{1}   = (785 × 478.69)/400

V_{1}   = 939.43 cm^{3}

c. Work done by the system

Mathematically, the work done by the system is calculated as follows;

w = P(V_{1}- V_{o}) = 125 KPa ( 939.43 - 785) = 19.30 J

d. Change in internal energy of the steam in J

ΔU = q - w = 83.8 - 19.3 = 64.5J

Trava [24]

Answer:

0.779 moles.

Explanation:

Mass of chlorine/number of moles = molar mass of chlorine.

Molar mass of chlorine = (35.5*2)

= 71 g/mol.

Mass = 55.3 g of chlorine.

Number of moles = 55.3/71

= 0.779 moles.
