(a) Against what external pressure must a gas sample expand from 50.0 mL to 219 mL to do 8.34 J of work? (b) To what volume will a 200.0-mL gas sample be compressed by an external pressure of 7.8 atm if 100.0 J of work are done on the system? (c) To what volume must a 200.0-mL gas sample expand against an external pressure of 7.8 atm to do 100.0 J of work?
(a)
Interpretation:
The external pressure and volumes has to be calculated.
Concept Introduction:
At constant pressure, the exchange of heat between the system and surroundings is called as Enthalpy and its state function.
Enthalpy can be given by the formula,
Where,
H=enthalpy
U=internal energy
P=Pressure
V=Volume
The work done on the system or by the system can be calculated from the equation
Where,
w=work done
P=Pressure
V=Change in volume
Answer to Problem 2PPB
The external pressure is

- In which of the following systems is(are) work done by the surroundings on the system? Assume pressure and temperature are constant. a. 2SO2(g)+O2(g)2SO3(g) b.CO2(s)CO2(g) c. 4NH3(g)+7O2(g)4NO2(g)+6H2O(g) d.N2O4(g)2NO2(g) e.CaCO3(s)CaCO(s)+CO2(g)arrow_forwardDry ice is solid carbon dioxide; it vaporizes at room temperature and normal pressures to the gas. Suppose you put 21.5 g of dry ice in a vessel fitted with a piston (similar to the one in Figure 6.9 but with the weight replaced by the atmosphere), and it vaporizes completely to the gas, pushing the piston upward until its pressure and temperature equal those of the surrounding atmosphere at 24.0C and 751 mmHg. Calculate the work done by the gas in expanding against the atmosphere. Neglect the volume of the solid carbon dioxide, which is very small in comparison to the volume of the gas phase.arrow_forwardWhen solid iron burns in oxygen gas (at constant pressure) to produce Fe2O3(s), 1651 kJ of heat is released for every 4 mol of iron burned. How much heat is released when 10.3 g Fe2O3(s) is produced (at constant pressure)? What additional information would you need to calculate the heat released to produce this much Fe2O3(s) if you burned iron in ozone gas, O3(g), instead of O2(g)?arrow_forward
- Consider the following reaction in the vessel described in Question 57. A(g)+B(g)C(s)For this reaction, E=286 J, the piston moves up and the system absorbs 388 J of heat from its surroundings. (a) Is work done by the system? (b) How much work?arrow_forwardNitrogen gas (2.75 L) is confined in a cylinder under constant atmospheric pressure (1.01 105 pascals). The volume of gas decreases to 2.10 L when 485 J of energy is transferred as heat to the surroundings. What is the change in internal energy of the gas?arrow_forward9.18 Calculate (a) q when a system does 54J of work and its energy decreases by 72 J and (b) E for a gas that releases 38 J of heat and has 102 J of work done on it.arrow_forward
