A refrigerator works by forcing heat out of the system and reverses the direction of the Carnot cycle. If a refrigerator containing 1.00 mole of gas has an initial temperature of 298 K, what is the total amount of work it would require to cool the refrigerator to 273 K.? What is the maximum efficiency of this process? Assume CV= 3R/2, VA= 2.00 L, VB= 10.0 L, VC= 11.4 L, and VD= 2.28 L.
In Reaction 3 of Hess’s Law Lab, 50.0 ml (50.0g) of a 1.00M HCl solution at 22.00ºC is added to 50.0mL (50.0g) of a 1.00M NaOH solution at 22.00ºC, in a Styrofoam cup. The temperature increases to 28.87ºC. What is the amount of heat produced per mole of NaOH?
Calculating dG from dH and dS A chemical engineer is studying the two reactions shown in the table below. In each case, she fills a reaction vessel with some mixture of the reactants and products at a constant temperature of 59.0 °C and constant total pressure. Then, she measures the reaction enthalpy AH and reaction entropy AS of the first reaction, and the reaction enthalpy AH and reaction free energy AG of the second reaction. The results of her measurements are shown in the table. Complete the table. That is, calculate AG for the first reaction and AS for the second. (Round your answer to zero decimal places.) Then, decide whether, under the conditions the engineer has set up, the reaction is spontaneous, the reverse reaction is spontaneous, or neither forward nor reverse reaction is spontaneous because the system is at equilibrium. alo AH = -172. kJ J AS = -420.
