Question
Chapter 2, Problem 2.22NP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:For the given process, the value of the final temperature with q, w, ΔU and ΔH for the adiabatic reversible expansion of gas needs to be determined.
Concept Introduction: In
Hence in reversible processes, both the system and surroundings are returned to their initial states. In general all reversible processes are ideal processes and cannot occur naturally.
On the contrary, an irreversible process cannot come back to its initial condition. All spontaneous processes in nature are irreversible processes.
In an adiabatic process the heat change is zero therefore the work done will be equal to the change in the internal energy.

A sample of 2.2 mol CO2(g) is originally confined in 15 dm3 at 280 K and then undergoes adiabatic expansion against a constant pressure of 78.5 kPa until the volume has increased by a factor of 4.0. Calculate ΔT. (The final pressure of the gas is not necessarily 78.5 kPa.)
One mole of N2(g) occupies 5 L of volume at 300 K in a sealed cylinder. The gas behaves ideally in expanding isothermally to 10 L. Calculate w, ΔE and ΔH if the expansion proceeds (i) reversibly, (ii) irreversibly against an external pressure at 0.2 atm.
Use the molar constant volume heat capacities for gases given in Topic 4C (as multiples for R) to estimate the change in reaction enthalpy of N2 (g) + 3 H2 (g) ---> 2 NH3 (g) when the temperture is increased from 300. K to 500. K. Ignore the vibrational contributions to heat capacity. Is the reaction more or less exothermic at the higher temperature?
