A vessel whose walls are thermally insulated contains 2.40kg of water and 0.450kg of ice, all at 0.0°C. The outlet of a tube leading from a boiler in which water is boiling at atmospheric pressure is inserted into the water. How many grams of steam must condense inside the vessel (also at atmospheric pressure) to raise the temperature of the system to28.0°C ? You can ignore the heat transferred to the container.

Short Answer

Expert verified

The mass of steam is 190g.

Given: Mass of ice m1=0.450kg, Mass of water is m2=2.40kginitial temperature and final temperature of system are

T1=0.0°Cand Tf=28.0°Crespectively.

Step by step solution

01

The conservation of heat energy

The heat gain by gain of ice and water is equals to the heat lost by steam.

Qice+Qwater=-Qsteam

Where, Qiceand Qwaterare heat gain by ice and water and Qsteamis heat lost by steam.

02

 The heat gain by ice, water and the heat lost by steam

The heat gain by ice is

225.6×103J/kg

Qice=m1Lf+m1c1∆T1

Where, Lflatent heat of fusion of ice and c1is specific heat capacity of water having values 33.4×103J/kgand 4190J/kg.Krespectively.

The heat gain by water is

Qwater=m2c1∆T2

Where, c1is specific heat capacity of water which is equals to 4190J/kg.K.

The heat lost by steam is

Qsteam=m3Lv+m3c1∆T3

Where, m3is the mass of steam and Lvis the latent heat of vaporization water which is equals to .

03

Calculation of mass of steam

Qice+Qwater=-Qsteamm1L1+m1c1∆T+m2c1∆T2=-m3Lv+m3c1∆T3m3=-m1Lf+m1c1∆T1+m2c1∆T2Lv+c1∆T3

Now, putting the values of constants in above equation

m3=-0.45×33.4×103+0.45×4190×28°-0°+2.4×4190×28°-0°225.6×103+4190×28°-100°m3=0.190kgm3=190g

Thus, the mass of steam is 190g

When a wet cloth is hung up in a hot wind in the desert, it is cooled by evaporation to a temperature that may be20C°or so below that of the air. Discuss this process in light of the second law of thermodynamics.

If the pressure of an ideal monatomic gas is increased while the number of moles is kept constant, what happens to the average translational kinetic energy of one atom of the gas? Is it possible to change boththe volume and the pressure of an ideal gas and keep the average translational kinetic energy of the atoms constant? Explain.

Real heat engines, like the gasoline engine in a car, always have some friction between their moving parts, although lubricants keep the friction to a minimum. Would a heat engine with completely frictionless parts be 100%efficient? Why or why not? Does the answer depend on whether or not the engine runs on the Carnot cycle? Again, why or why not?

You hold an inflated balloon over a hot-air vent in your house and watch it slowly expand. You then remove it and let it cool back to room temperature. During the expansion, which was larger: the heat added to the balloon or the work done by the air inside it? Explain. (Assume that air is an ideal gas.) Once the balloon has returned to room temperature, how does the net heat gained or lost by the air inside it compare to the net work done on or by the surrounding air?

Consider two specimens of ideal gas at the same temperature. Specimen A has the same total mass as specimen B, but the molecules in specimen A have greater molar mass than they do in specimen B. In which specimen is the total kinetic energy of the gas greater? Does your answer depend on the molecular structure of the gases? Why or why not?
