ΔU for a van der Waals gas increases by 475 J in an expansion process, and the magnitude of w is 93.0 J.

Complete question:

ΔU for a van der Waals gas increases by 475 J in an expansion process, and the magnitude of w is 93.0 J. calculate the magnitude of q for the process.

The magnitude of q for the process 568 J.

Explanation:

Given;

change in internal energy of the gas, ΔU = 475 J

work done by the gas, w = 93 J

heat added to the system, = q

During gas expansion process, heat is added to the gas.

Apply the first law of thermodynamic to determine the magnitude of heat added to the gas.

ΔU = q - w

q = ΔU +  w

q = 475 J  +  93 J

q = 568 J

Therefore, the magnitude of q for the process 568 J.

answer is a

explanation:

the answer is definitely c.
