A monatomic ideal gas is heated while at a constant volume of 1.00 * 10^-3 m^3, using a 10 watt heater. The pressure of the gas increases by 5.0 * 10^4 Pa. How long was the heater on?

Solutions

Expert Solution

At constant volume work =0

so heat change = change in internal energy = n Cv(T2-T1)

       heat change = power*time =10*t

                10*t=n Cv(T2-T1) =3Rn(T2-T1)/2                          Cv =3R/2 for monoatomic

use ideal gas equation

    P1V1=nRT1                 P2V1=nRT2

substact above equations

               T2 - T1= V1(P2-P1)/nR

so 10*t    =   1.5 nR*V1(P2-P1)/nR =1.5*V1(P2-P1)

           10*t= V1(P2-P1) =1.5* 10^(-3) * 5*10^(4 )             [P2-P1 =5*10^4 pas given ]

          so t= 7.5 sec
