A horizontal rectangular piston contains 1.85 mol of a polyatomic ideal gas at a pressure of 1.013x10^5 Pa and a temperature of 322.5 C. The gas within the piston is cooled to 264.0 C. (a) If the piston undergoes an isovolumetric process, what is the change in entropy of the gas? J/K (b) If the piston undergoes an isobaric process inside the chamber, what is the change in entropy of the gas? J/K
Solutions
Expert Solution
a) change in entropy of the gas = nCv ln (T2 / T1)
= 1.85 * 3R * ln(322.5/264.0)
= 1.85 * 3 * 8.314 * ln(322.5/264.0)
= 9.235 J/K
b) change in entropy of the gas = nCp ln (T2 / T1)
= 1.85 * 4R * ln(322.5/264.0)
= 1.85 * 4 * 8.314 * ln(322.5/264.0)
= 12.314 J/K

A piston contains 620 moles of an ideal monatomic gas that
initally has a pressure of 2.92 × 105 Pa and a volume of 4.1 m3.
The piston is connected to a hot and cold reservoir and the gas
goes through the following quasi-static cycle accepting energy from
the hot reservoir and exhausting energy into the cold reservoir.
The pressure of the gas is increased to 5.92 × 105 Pa while
maintaining a constant volume. The volume of the gas...

A flexible balloon contains 0.360 mol of an unknown polyatomic
gas. Initially the balloon containing the gas has a volume of 7.50
m3 and a temperature of 27.0 ∘C. The gas first expands
isobarically until the volume doubles. Then it expands
adiabatically until the temperature returns to its initial value.
Assume that the gas may be treated as an ideal gas with
Cp=33.26J/mol⋅K and γ=4/3.
What is the total heat Q supplied to the gas in the process? What...

Consider a container with a frictionless piston that contains a
given amount of an ideal gas.
Let’s assume that initially the external pressure is 2.20 bar,
which is the sum of a 1 bar atmospheric pressure and the pressure
created by a very large number of very small pebbles that rest on
top of the piston. The initial volume of gas is 0.300
L and the initial temperature is 25°C.
Now, you will increase the volume of the gas by...

Consider a container with a frictionless piston that contains a
given amount of an ideal gas. Assume the initial volume of the gas
is 7 L, the initial temperature of the gas is 22.1 °C, and the
system is in equilibrium with an external pressure of 1.1 bar. In
step 1, the gas is cooled reversibly to a final temperature -29.9
°C. The external pressure remains constant at all times. In step 2
the gas is heated at constant volume...

An engine that operates by means of an ideal diatomic ideal gas
in a piston with 2.70 moles of gas. The gas starts at point A with
3x103 Pa of pressure and 2.5x10-2 m3. To get from B from A, it is
expanded by an isobaric process to double the initial volume. From
B to C it expands adiabatically until it reaches three times the

the volume and...

A cylinder contains 4 mol of an ideal gas at
30oC. If it expands from an initial volume of
1.0 m3 to 2.0 m3 while maintained at a
constant pressure of 200 kPa.
What is the change in the temperature of the gas?
How much heat is absorbed or released from the system, over the
process?
The pressure is then reduced while the
gas is held at a constant volume.
If over this process the gas is returned to its original...
