The entropy S of a certain object (not an Einstein solid) is the following function of the internal energy E:S=bE1/2, where b is a constant. (a) Determine the internal energy of this object as a function of the temperature.

(b) What is the specific heat of this object as a function of the temperature?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The expression for energy in terms of temperature is

E=14b2T2.

(b) The expression foe specific heat in terms of temperature is

C=b22TNatoms

Step by step solution

01

Introduction

Entropy, the measure of a system's thermal energy per unit temperature that is unavailable for doing useful work. Because work is obtained from ordered molecular motion, the amount of entropy is also a measure of the molecular disorder, or randomness, of a system.

02

Concept

The relation that connects entropy, energy and temperature is given as follows:

S=ETT=ES.........1

Here, Sis the change in entropy in J/kg,Eis change in internal energy in

Joules and T is temperature in Kelvin.

03

(a) Determine the internal energy of the object 

Theexpression for entropy is

S=bE

Here, b is constant and E is internal energy.

Rearrange the expression for E.

E=S2b2.........2

Substitute equation (2) in equation (1).

T=SS2b2=1b2SS2=1b22S

Rearrange the expression for S.

S=12b2T

Substituteb-EforS

bE=12b2TE=12bTE=12b2T2

Thus, the expression for energy in terms of temperature is

E=12b2T2

04

(b) Determine the specific heat of the object

The internal energy of a system having N number of atoms is proportional to its temperature T.

E=CNatomsT

Here, C is the specific heat, T is the temperature in Kelvin

Apply partial derivatives to both sides.

E=CNatomsTET=CNatoms

Here,Eis change in internal energy in joules.

Substitute 14b2T2forE

CNatoms=T14b2T2C=b22TNatoms

Thus, the expression foe specific heat in terms of temperature is

C=b22TNatoms

Young鈥檚 modulus for copper is measured by stretching a copper wire to be about 1.21011N/m2. The density of copper is about 9g/cm3, and the mass of a mole is .Starting from a very low temperature, use these data to estimate roughly the temperature T at which we expect the specific heat for copper to approach 3 kB . Compare your estimate with the data shown on a graph in this chapter.

At sufficiently high temperatures, the thermal speeds of gas molecules may be high enough that collisions may ionize a molecule (that is, remove an outer electron).
