Explanation / Answer

1btu=0.252Kcal

Work done=15Btu= 15*0.252 Kcal=3.78 Kcal

From 1st law of thermodynamics,

deltaU= Q+W

anything added to the system is +ve and leaving is –ve.

Accordingly, Q is –ve since heat is removed from system

And W is +ve. Work is added to system

deltaU= 3.78-26=-22.22 Kcal

1Kcal= 4.18 Kj

-22.22 Kcal= -22.22*4.18 KJ=-98.88 KJ

2. work done = PdV, work is done in the process of expansion is -ve

Work done = -5.5*(16.3-10.5) L.atm=-31.9 L.atm, 1L.atm=101.3 J, hence -31.9L.atm= -31.9*101.3 Joules=-3231.47 joules

3. since heat is releaased, the reaction is exothermic.

4. The reaction is C2H4(g)+H2(g)------->C2H6

1 mole of C2H4 gives 1 mole of C2H6

molar mass of C2H4= 28 and that of C2H6= 30

28 gm of C2H4 gives 30 gm of C2H6

30 gm of C2H6 137 KJ

15 kg =15*1000 gm of C2H6 gives 15*137*1000Kj=2055000 KJ

5. heat added to aluminium= mass of aluminium* specific heat* change in temperature= 7.65*0.9*(375-18) joules=2458 joules

6. heat removed from metal = heat added to water

mass of metal* specific heat of metal* change in the temperature= mass of water* specific heat of water* change in temperature

specific heat of water= 4.18 J/gm.deg.c

12.18*specific heat of metal*(65-27.25)= 25*4.18*(27.25-25.55)

specific heat of metal = 0.39 J/gm.deg.c. From specific heat data of metal, the metal is Zinc.

7. let the final temperature be t

hence heat removed from copper= heat added to water

mass of copper* specific heat of copper* change in temperature = mass of water* specific heat of water* change in temperature.

455*0.387*(89.5-t)= 159*4.184*(t-22.8)

176*89.5-176t= 665.3t- 665.3*22.8

r*(665.3+176)= 176*89.5+665.3*22.8 = 36.75 deg.c

8.

The 1st reaction is CO(g)+0.5O2(g)--àCO2(g), deltaH=-283KJ (1)

The 2nd reaction is N2(g)+O2(g)------>2NO(g), deltaH= 180.6 Kj

Reversing the reaction 2NO(g)->N2(g)+ O2(g), deltaH= -180.6 KJ

Dividing by 2, NO(g)--->0.5N2(g)+0.5O2(g), deltaH=-90.3 Kj (2)

Eq.1+Eq.2 gives CO(g)+NO(g)->CO2(g)+0.5N2(g), deltaH= -283-90.3=-373.3 KJ the enthalpy change of desired reaction.
