State B VB 30.0 L 4PB 1.00 atm VD 10.0I PD 1.00 atm Calculate q, w, ??, and ?? for both pathways. Solution

Explanation / Answer

From state A to stare B via upper path given in the question

Step 1

At constant pressure (isobaric process) = 2 atm

Volume change = 30 L - 10 L = 20 L

Work done = - P(V2 - V1) = - 2 atm x 20 L

= - 40 L-atm x 101.325 J/L-atm

W = - 4053 J

For isobaric process

W = - nR (T2 - T1)

Change in temperature (T2 - T1)

= 4053 J / (2 mol x 8.314 J/mol·K)

= 243.7 K

At constant pressure

q 1 = n x Cp x ? T = ?H1

= (2mol) x (5/2R) x (243.7 K)

q1 = ?H1 = 10132.5 J

? E1 = n x Cv x ? T

= (2mol) x (3/2R) x (243.7 K)

= 6079.5 J

Step 2

At constant volume (isochoric process)

Volume = 30 L

Pressure changes ?P = 1 atm - 2atm = - 1 atm

Change in temperature

?T = ?PV/nR

= - 1atm x 30 L / (2 mol x 0.0821 L-atm/mol-K )

= - 182.7 K

q2 = n x C v x ? T = ?E2

= (2 mol) x (3/2R) x (-182.7 K)

q2 =?E2 = - 4.6 x 10 ^3 J

?H2 = n x Cp x ?T

= (2 mol) x (5/2R) x (-182.7 K)

= - 7.6 x 10^3 J

Work done W = 0 (for isochoric process)

Overall

?T = 243.7 - 182.7 = 61

q = q1 + q2

= 5.5 x 10^3J

w = w1 + w2 = -4.0 x 10^3J

?E = ?E1 + ?E2
= 1.5 x 10^3J
?H = ?H1 + ?H2

= 2.5 x 10^3J

From state A to stare B via lower path given in the question

Step 1

At constant volume (isochoric process)

Volume = 30 L

Pressure changes ?P = 1 atm - 2atm = - 1 atm

Change in temperature

?T = ?PV/nR

= - 1atm x 10 L / (2 mol x 0.0821 L-atm/mol-K )

= - 60.9 K

q1 = n x C v x ? T =  ?E1

= (2 mol) x (3/2R) x (-60.9 K)

q1 =?E1 = - 1.5 x 10 ^3 J

?H1 = n x Cp x ?T

= (2 mol) x (5/2R) x (-60.9 K)

=  - 2.5 x 10^3 J

Work done W = 0 (for isochoric process)

Step 2

At constant pressure (isobaric process) = 1atm

Volume change = 30 L - 10 L = 20 L

Work done = - P(V2 - V1) = - 1atm x 20 L

= - 20 L-atm x 101.325 J/L-atm

W = - 2026.5 J

For isobaric process

W = - nR (T2 - T1)

Change in temperature (T2 - T1)

= 2026.5 J / (2 mol x 8.314 J/mol·K)

= 121.8 K

At constant pressure

q 2 = n x Cp x ? T = ?H2

= (2mol) x (5/2R) x (121.8 K)

q2 = ?H2 = 5.1 x 10^3 J

? E2 = n x Cv x ? T

= (2mol) x (3/2R) x (121.8 K)

= 3.1 x 10^3 J

?T = -60.9+121.8

=60.9K
q = q1 + q2

= 3.6 x 10^ J
w = w1 + w2

= -2.0 x 10^3 J
?E = ?E1 + ?E2

= 1.5 x 10^3 J
?H = ?H1 + ?H2

= 2.5 x 10^3 J
