500 J of work are done on a system in a process that decreases the system’s thermal energy by 200 J. How much heat energy is transferred to or from the system?
A 5.0-m-diameter garden pond is 30 cm deep. Solar energy is incident on the pond at an average rate of 400 W/m2 . If the water absorbs all the solar energy and does not exchange energy with its surroundings, how many hours will it take to warm from 15°C to 25°C?
0.10 mol of nitrogen gas follow the two processes shown in
Figure EX19.31. How much heat is required for each?

FIGURE P19.62 shows a thermodynamic process followed by of helium.
