We start with 5.00 moles of an ideal monatomic gas with an initial temperature of 133 ∘C. The gas expands and, in the process, absorbs an amount of heat equal to 1300 J and does an amount of work equal to 2200 J Use R = 8.3145 J/(mol⋅K) for the ideal gas constant.
Given data,
n= 5.00 moles of an ideal monatomic gas
Initial temperature of T1 = 133 ° C
Amount of heat energy taken (Q) = 1300J
Work done (W) = 2200J
we know the formula from the Thermo Dynamic first law we have
Q = U + W
U = Q - W
=1300J
- 2200J = -900J
we know the formula of the internal energy is
-900J = (5.0 mol) x (3/2) [8.314 J/mol. K] [T2 – (133+273)]
T2 – 406 = -900 / 62.355 = -14.43
T2 = 391.56 K
T2 = 391.70- 273 = 118.57 ° C
