Chapter 19: Q. 8 (page 543)

Shows two different processes taking an ideal gas from state i to state f.

a. Is the temperature change ∆T during process A larger than, smaller than, or equal to the change during process B? Explain.

b. Is the heat energy added during process A greater than, less than, or equal to the heat added during process B? Explain.

Short Answer

Expert verified

In both cases, ∆Tis same.

The amount of heat is necessary put in A is greater than to B

Step by step solution

01

Definition of  state function

State function defines the property whose values are not depend on the path to reach in specific value.

02

Finding the changes of temperature

a. Temperature is a state function property that independent its pathway and depends on final point. due to this reason, ∆T remain same in both case.

b. The graph area of A side is high and work done is lees than to B. Due to this reason, it is necessary to add more heat in A than B.

This causes an adult human to produce 30 g of perspiration per minute.

If all the perspiration evaporates, rather than drips off, at what

Two cylinders each contain 0.10molof a diatomic gas at 300Kand a pressure of 3.0atm. Cylinder A expands isothermally and cylinder B expands adiabatically until the pressure of each is 1.0atm.

a. What are the final temperature and volume of each?

b. Show both processes on a single pVdiagram. Use an appropriate scale on both axes.

You come into the lab one day and find a well-insulated 2000mL thermos bottle containing 500mL of boiling liquid nitrogen. The remainder of the thermos has nitrogen gas at a pressure of 1.0 atm. The gas and liquid are in thermal equilibrium. While waiting for lab to start, you notice a piece of iron on the table with " 197g" written on it. Just for fun, you drop the iron into the thermos and seal the cap tightly so that no gas can escape. After a few seconds have passed, what is the pressure inside the thermos? The density of liquid nitrogen is 810kg/m3.
