Step by step solution

01

Given

No. of moles of a diatomic gas is n=4.00mol

Temperature;

Δ°Õ=60.0K

02

Understanding the concept

The expression for the amount of energy transferred to the gas is given by,

Q=mCPΔT

Here Q is the amount of energy transferred to gas, n is the number of moles,CP is the specific heat capacity at constant pressure andΔTis the temperature difference.

The expression for the change in internal energy is given by,

ΔEint=nCVΔT

Here ΔEintis the change in internal energy, n is the number of moles, CVis the specific heat capacity at constant volume, ΔTis the difference in temperature.

03

Step 3: (a) Calculate the energy transferred as heat Q

The equation for the energy transferred as heat is given by,

Q=nCPΔT…… (i)

But, for diatomic gas,

CP=72R

Substitute 72Rfor CPinto the equation (i)

Q=72nRΔT

Substitute 4mol for n, 8.3145J/mol.K for R, 60.CforΔTinto the above equation,

Q=7248.31460=6.98×103J

Therefore, the amount of energy transferred as heat is.6.98×103J.

04

(b) Calculate the change in the internal energy of the gas is4.99×103J

The expression for the change in internal energy is given by,

ΔEint=nCVΔT…… (ii)

But, for diatomic gasCV=52R,

Substitute52Rfor CVinto the equation (ii)

ΔEint=52nRΔT

Substitute 4mol for n , 8.3145j/mol.K for R, 60.C for T into the above equation,

ΔEint=524(8.314)(60)=4.99×103J

The change in the internal energy of the gas is4.99×103J

05

Step 5: (c) Calculate the work W done by the gas

According to the first law of thermodynamics,

ΔEint=Q-W
:W=Q-ΔEint

Substitute 6.98x103]for Q and 4.99x103]for ΔEintinto the above equation,

W=6.98×103-4.99×103=1.99×103J

Therefore the work done by the gas is 1.99×103J.

06

(d) Calculate the changeΔK in total translational kinetic energy of the gas

The expression for theΔKin total translational kinetic energy of the gas is given by,

ΔK=32nRΔT

Substitute 4mol for n, 8.3145J/mol.K for R, 60.C forΔTinto the above equation,

ΔK=3248.31460=2.99×103J

Therefore, the change in the translational kinetic energy of the gas is 2.99×103J

Question: A container encloses 2 mol of an ideal gas that has molar mass M1 and 0.5 mol of a second ideal gas that has molar mass m2 = 3 .m1 What fraction of the total pressure on the container wall is attributable to the second gas? (The kinetic theory explanation of pressure leads to the experimentally discovered law of partial pressures for a mixture of gases that do not react chemically: The total pressure exerted by the mixture is equal to the sum of the pressures that the several gases would exert separately if each were to occupy the vessel alone.)
