Step by step solution

01

Given data

  • PressurePab=5鈥塳笔补
  • PressurePc=2鈥塳笔补
  • VolumeVbc=4鈥尘3
  • VolumeVa=2鈥尘3

Understanding the concept

The internal energy of an ideal gas is given by,

Eint=(f2)pV

Heref is the degree of freedom,f is the pressure,V is the volume.

Substitute nRTforpV into the above equation.

Eint=(f2)nRT

Heren is the number of moles, Ris the gas constant,T is the temperature.

03

(a) Calculate the change in internal energy of the gas

The equipartition of energy theorem states that each degree of freedom of a molecule has associated with it an energy of 12RTper mole. Iff is the number of degree of freedom, thenEint=(f2)nRT

Usingtheideal gas equation, we get

pV=nRTEint=(f2)pV

For a diatomic gas, the degree of freedomf=5

Change in the internal energy of an ideal diatomic gas:

The internal energy at pointais

Eint=(52)paVa

And internal energy for pointc

Eint=(52)pcVc

The change in internal energy is then

螖贰int=(52)pcVc(52)paVa=(52)(pcVc-paVa)=(52)((2103Pa)(4鈥尘3)(5103Pa)(2鈥尘3))=5103J

Therefore the change in the internal energy of an ideal diatomic gas for pathac is 5.0103J.

04

(b) Calculate how much energy is added to the gas as heat

Energy added to the gas as heat for pathac:

The work done along the pathac is

Wac=(Pa+Pc2)(Vc-Va)=(5+22)(42)=(3.05103Pa)(2鈥尘3)=7103J

The first law of thermodynamics gives

Qac=Eint+Wac=(5103+7103)J=2103J

Therefore the energy added as heat for pathac is 2.0103J.

05

(c) Calculate how much heat is required if the gas goes from a to c along the indirect path abc

Heat required if the gas goes fromatoc :

Eintdepends only on the initial and final states and not on the 鈥減ath鈥 between them.

Then we can write this for indirect path:

Eint=Eint,cEint,a=5103J

In this case, the total work done consists of the work done during the constant pressure part (the horizontal line in the graph) plus the work done during the constant volume part (the vertical line).

Windirect=(5103Pa)(2鈥尘3)+0=(5103Pa)(2鈥尘3)+0=1104J

Now, from first law of thermodynamics,

Qindirect=螖贰int+Windirect=螖贰int+Windirect=(5103)+(1104)=5103J

Therefore theHeat required if the gas goes fromatocalong the pathabcis5.0103J .
