We write DE = q+w, where DE is the internal energy change and q and w are heat and work, respectively.
(b)Under what conditions will the quantities q and w be negative numbers?
q is negative when heat flows from the system to the surroundings, and w is negative when the system does work on the surroundings.
As an aside: In applying the first law, do we need to measure the internal energy of a system? Explain.
The absolute internal energy of a system cannot be measured, at least in any practical sense. The internal energy encompasses the kinetic energy of all moving particles in the system, including subatomic particles, as well as the electrostatic potential energies between all these particles. We can measure the change in internal energy (DE) as the result of a chemical or physical change, but we cannot determine the absolute internal energy of either the initial or the final state. The first law allows us to calculate the change in internal energy during a transformation by calculating the heat and work exchanged between the system and its surroundings.

Explanation:
In order to solve this problem, we must apply Graham's law of diffusion in gases. Graham's law states that the rate of diffusion of a gas is inversely proportional to the square root of its vapour density. For two gases we can write;
R1/R2=√d2/d1
Where;
R1= rate of diffusion of hydrogen
R2= rate diffusion of unknown gas
d1= vapour density of hydrogen
d2= vapour density of the unknown gas
Volume of hydrogen gas = 360cm^3
Time taken for hydrogen gas to diffuse= 1 hour =3600 secs
R1 = 360 cm^3/3600 secs = 0.1 cm^3 s-1
Vapour density of unknown gas = 25
Vapour density of hydrogen = 1
Substituting values,
0.1/R2 = √25/1
0.1/R2 = 5/1
5R2 = 0.1 × 1
R2 = 0.1/5
R2= 0.02 cm^3s-1
Volume of unknown gas = 600cm^3
Time taken for unknown gas to diffuse= volume of unknown gas/ rate of diffusion of unknown gas
Time taken for unknown gas to diffuse= 600/0.02
Time= 30,000 seconds or 8.33 hours
Answer:
Explanation:Because of the delocalised electrons exposed above and below the plane of the rest of the molecule, benzene is obviously going to be highly attractive to electrophiles - species which seek after electron rich areas in other molecules.
Answer:
The temperature increases from 23.0 C to 37.0 °C
Explanation:
<u>Step 1:</u> Data given
DH = -44.4 kJ/mol
mass NaOH = 13.9 grams
mass of water = 250.0 grams
Initial temperature = 23°C = 295 K
Final temperature = TO BE DETERMINED
Specific heat = 4.18 J/g*K
<u>Step 2: </u>Calculate change in temperature
13.9 grams/ 40 g/mol * 44.4 kJ/mol = 15429 J
15429 J = (massNaOH + mass water) * 4.18 * ΔT
15429 = 263.9 *4.18 * ΔT
ΔT = 14°C
<u>Step 3:</u> Calculate final temperature
ΔT= 14°C = T2 - 23°C
T2 = 23 +14 = 37 °C
The temperature increases from 23.0 C to 37.0 °C
