(a): Given T = 310 K, P = 1 atm
Volume of gas, Vi = r2h = 3.14 x (5 cm)2x23 cm = 1805.5 cm3 = 1.8055 L
Applying ideal gas equation:
PV = nRT
=> n = PV / RT = 1 atm x 1.8055 L / (0.0821 L.atm.mol-1.K-1 x 310 K)
=> moles of gas in the cylinder, n = 0.07094 mol or 0.071 mol (answer)
(b): Final volume after compression, Vf = = r2h = 3.14 x (5 cm)2x5 cm = 392.5 cm3 = 0.3925 L
Given degree of fredom, f = 5.
Hence = (f+2) / f = 7/5 = 1.4
For adiabatic compression, PiVi = PfVf
=> Pf = Pi x (Vi/ Vf)
=> Pf = 1 atm x (1.8055L / 0.3925L)1.4
=> Pf = 8.47 atm (answer)
Also, for adiabatic compression, TiVi-1 = TfVf-1
=> Tf = Ti x (Vi/ Vf)-1
=> Tf = 310K x (1.8055L / 0.3925L)1.4
=> Tf = 2626K (answer)
(c): The formula for the work done in adiabatic compression is
W = (PiVi - PfVf) / ( - 1)
=> W = (1 atmx1.8055L - 8.47 atmx0.3925L) / (1.4 - 1)
=> W = - 3.8 L.atm = - 3.8 x 10-3m3 x 105 M/m2 = - 3800 J (answer)
(d) T = Tf +800K = 2626K + 800K = 3426 K (answer)
