thermodynamic properties

Based on the thermodynamic properties provided for methanol (below and to the right), determine from the following list the equation(s) necessary to calculate the amount of energy needed for 22.8 kg of methanol from all gas at 65°C to —112°C.

Is this overall process endothermic or exothermic?

  • Endothermic
  • Exothermic
  • Cannot be determined from the given information.

Solutions

Expert Solution

For conversion of methanol gas at 65 oc to -112.oc

 

The equations would be as follows,

 

Step 1: Gas at 65 oc to liquid at 65 oc

 

Q = n (-37 kj/mol)

 

Step 2: Liquid at 65 oc to liquid at -94 oc

 

Q = n (81.1 J/mol.oc), where dt is negative

 

Step 3: Liquid at -94 oc to solid at -94 oc

 

Q = n (-3.18 kj/mol)

 

Step 4: Solid at -94 oc to solid at -112 oc

 

Q = n (48.7 J/mol.oc), where dt is negative

 

Therefore, the overall process would thus be,

 

Exothermic

 

Heat is given off to cool the entire system.

Use the Gibbs distribution to calculate thermodynamic properties (including entropy, all relevant thermodynamic potentials, and heat capacity), of an ensemble of similar two-level systems, in thermodynamic equilibrium at temperature T that is comparable with the energy gap (delta). For each variable, sketch its temperature dependence, and find its asymptotic values (or trends) in the low- temperature and high-temperature limits. Also, calculate the probabilities of the energy level occupation, and give physical interpretations of your results, in both temperature limits.

The thermodynamic properties of foods can be discussed in terms of the enthalpy of combustion per gram of food. Do you get more energy from the metabolism of one gram of sugar or one gram of fat? Answer this question quantitatively and with as much thermodynamic detail as possible.
