3. One mole of air is compressed isothermally at 300K from one atmosphere to fifteen atmospheres.
a) Calculate the amount of work required in the compression.
b) How much heat must be added or removed from the gas to maintain its temperature at 300K.
c) Does the enthalpy of the gas change? If so, how much?
d) Does the entropy of the gas change? If so, how much?
DATA: You may assume that air is an ideal gas with a constant volume heat capacity of 5/2R

A mixture of 20.0 mol% benzene, 5.00 mol% toluene, and 75.0 mol% air is compressed isothermally...

A mixture of 20.0 mol% benzene, 5.00 mol% toluene, and 75.0 mol% air is compressed isothermally at 70 degrees C until condensation first appears. What is the mole fraction of benzene in the condensate? You may assume that air is noncondensable (and thus its vapor pressure is large) and this system obeys Raoult's Law. Note: when solving Antoine's equation it is best to keep all sig figs through calculation and then truncate them at the end. Question options: 0.605, 0.832,...
