If 75J of heat are applied to 8.4 L of a gas at 732 mmHg and 298K, what is the final temperature, in K, of the gas? Cp for an ideal gas is 20.79 J/mol*K.

309 K

Explanation:

Step 1: Convert the pressure to atm

We will use the conversion factor 1 atm = 760 mmHg.

732 mmHg × 1 atm/760 mmHg = 0.963 atm

Step 2: Calculate the moles (n) of the ideal gas

We will use the ideal gas equation.

P × V = n × R × T

n = P × V/R × T

n = 0.963 atm × 8.4 L/0.0821 atm.L/mol.K × 298 K

n = 0.33 mol

Step 3: Calculate the temperature change

We will use the following expression.

Q = n × Cp × ΔT

ΔT = Q/n × Cp

ΔT = 75 J/0.33 mol × 20.79 J/mol.K

ΔT = 11 K

Step 4: Calculate the final temperature

T = 298 K + 11 K = 309 K
