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

What makes a question testable? Can someone help me on this pls it has to be either a 4-5 sentence! this is a science question.
Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

testable questions are answer through observation or an experiment that provides evidence that the questions connects to the scientific concepts rather the opinion feelings

therefore the question can be tested through observation or experiment

26.0 g of a liquid that has a density of 1.44 g/mL needs to be measured out in a graduated cylinder. what volume should be used
Vaselesa [24]
As Density = Mass/Volume
Mass = 26.0g 
Density = 1.44g/mL
Therefore Volume = Mass/Density
=> Volume = 26.0/1.44 = 18.055... = 18.1mL (to 3 sig figs)

What factors affect freezing-point depression of a solution? (select all that apply)
ANTONII [103]

Answer:

A and F i think

Explanation:

Freezing point depression is a colligative property observed in solutions that results from the introduction of solute molecules to a solvent. The freezing points of solutions are all lower than that of the pure solvent and is directly proportional to the molality of the solute
