A gas absorbs 21.39 kJ of energy while expanding against 0.276 atm from a volume of 0.0432 L to 1.876 L. What is the energy change of the gas?

Q = 21.896kJ

Explanation:

Q = ?

∇U = 21.39kJ

W = ?

W = P∇V

W = P (V2 - V1)

W = 0.276 × (1.876 - 0.04232)

W = 0.276 × 1.83368

W = 0.5060J

Q = ∇U + W

Q = 21.39 + 0.5060

Q = 21.896kJ

The energy change corresponds to the work done by the system

Explanation:

Hello,

In this case, we should apply the first law of thermodynamics to compute the energy change:

Thus, with the given volume change we compute the corresponding work in kJ:

Then, we compute the energy change:

Best regards.

alfred von schlieffen, german army chief of staff, was given instructions to devise a strategy that would be able to counter a joint attack. in december, 1905, he began circulating what later became known as the schlieffen plan. schlieffen argued that if war took place it was vital that france was speedily defeated.
