Suppose 1.80″¾´Ç±ôof an ideal gas is taken from a volume of 3.00″¾3to a volume of 1.5 m3via an isothermal compression at30°C

  1. How much energy is transferred as heat during the compression
  2. Is the transfer to or from the gas?

Short Answer

Expert verified
  1. The amount of energy transferred as heat during the compression is 3.14×103J.
  2. The heat is transferred from the gas.

Step by step solution

01

Given

  1. Number of moles,n=1.80″¾´Ç±ô
  2. Initial volume of ideal gas,Vi=3.00m3
  3. Final volume of ideal gas,Vf=1.5″¾3
  4. Temperature,T=30°C=30+273=303‿é
  5. R=8.31 Jmol⋅K

Determining the concept

Consider the work done of an ideal gas can be explained in two terms. First, if the gas is allowed to expand from the initial volumeVito final volumeViwhile keeping temperature Tof the gas constant, it is called isothermal expansion, and reverse process is known as isothermal compression. In this problem, an ideal gas is compressed at temperature.30°C For compression,Vfis less than.VfSo, the ratio of the volumes is less than unity. Hence, the work done is negative.

Formula is as follow:

W=nRTlnVfVi

Here, W is work done, V is volume, T is temperature, R is universal gas constant and n is number of moles.

(a) Determining the amount of energy transferred as heat during the compression

To find the amount of energy transferred as heat during isothermal compression process, i.e.W=Q,,

W=nRTlnVfVi

W=(1.80)(8.31)(303)ln(1.5)(3)W=(1.80)(8.31)(303)(−0.6931)

W=−3141.53 J

Since:W=Q,

|Q|=|−3141.53|Q=3.1415×103 J≈3.14×103 J

Hence, the amount of energy transferred as heat during the compressionis3.14×103J

04

(b) Determineif the transfer is to or from the gas

The negative sign of the work done implies that the heat is transferred from the gas.

Hence,the heat is transferred from the gas.

Question: Water bottle in a hot car. In the American southwest, the temperature in a closed car parked in sunlight during the summer can be high enough to burn flesh. Suppose a bottle of water at a refrigerator temperature of 75 0C. Neglecting the thermal expansion of water and the bottle, find the pressure in the air pocket trapped in the bottle. (The pressure can be enough to push the bottle cap past the threads that are intended to keep the bottle closed.)
