The process abc shown in the pV-diagram in Fig. E19.11 involves 0.0175 mol of an ideal gas. (a) What was the lowest temperature the gas reached in this process? Where did it occur? (b) How much work was done by or on the gas from a to b? From b to c? (c) If 215 J of heat was put into the gas during abc, how many of those joules went into internal energy?

Short Answer

Expert verified

(a) The lowest temperature the gas reached is 278K and it occurred at point a

(b) Total work done from a to b is zero.

(c) If 215J of heat was put into the gas then 162J heat went into the gas.

Step by step solution

01

Lowest temperature

Given,

It is given an ideal gas with molesn=0.0175mol From the graph we can see that at point the pressurep=0.2atm and the volume isV=2L

Now, applying the ideal gas formula and solve for T we get:

T=pVnR, whereR is gas constant equals to8.314J and the pressure is converted to Pa that is1.013105Pa

=0.2atm1.013105Pa210-3m30.0175mol8.314J/molK=278K

Therefore, the lowest temperature isdata-custom-editor="chemistry" 278K

02

Calculating work done and heat absorbed

Since in the process from a to b the volume is constant therefore the work done is Wab=0

Now, in the process from b to c the pressure decreases from 0.5atmto 0.3 atmand the volume increases from 2L to 6L .

Therefore, the work done from b to c is given by:

Wab=12[0.3+0.51.013105Pa][6-210-3m3]=162J

Therefore, the work done is162J

Now it is given the value to heat addedQ=215J . So, to calculate the heat added we use the first law of thermodynamics

U=Q-W=215J-162J=53J

Therefore, the heat absorbed is53J

A piece of aluminum foil used to wrap a potato for baking in a hot oven can usually be handled safely within a few seconds after the potato is removed from the oven. The same is not true of the potato, however! Give two reasons for this difference.

Camels require very little water because they are able to tolerate relatively large changes in their body temperature. While humans keep their body temperatures constant to within one or two Celsius degrees, a dehydrated camel permits its body temperature to drop to 34.00Covernight and rise to 40.00Cduring the day. To see how effective this mechanism is for saving water, calculate how many litres of water a 400kg camel would have to drink if it attempted to keep its body temperature at a constant by evaporation of sweat during the day ( 12hours ) instead of letting it rise to 40.00C. (Note: The specific heat of a camel or other mammal is about the same as that of a typical human, 3480J/kgK . The heat of vaporization of water at 34.00C is 2.42106J/kg .)

(a) Equation (17.12) gives the stress required to keep the length of a rod constant as its temperature changes. Show that if the length is permitted to change by an amount 鈭哃 when its temperature changes by 鈭員, the stress is equal toFA=Y(LL0T)

where F is the tension on the rod, L0 is the original length of the rod, A its cross-sectional area, its coefficient of linear expansion, and Y its Young鈥檚 modulus. (b) A heavy brass bar has projections at its ends (Fig. P17.79). Two fine steel wires, fastened between the projections, are just taut (zero tension) when the whole system is at 20掳C. What is the tensile stress in the steel wires when the temperature of the system is raised to 140掳C? Make any simplifying assumptions you think are justified, but state them.

One experimental method of measuring an insulating material鈥檚 thermal conductivity is to construct a box of the material and measure the power input to an electric heater inside the box that maintains the interior at a measured temperature above the outside surface. Suppose that in such an apparatus a power input of 180Wis required to keep the interior surface of the box(about120F) above the temperature of the outer surface. The total area of the box is2.18m2, and the wall thickness is 3.90cm. Find the thermal conductivity of the material in SI units.

Two moles of an ideal gas are heated at constant pressure from T = 27掳C to T = 107掳C. (a) Draw a pV-diagram for this process. (b) Calculate the work done by the gas
