Which is the best description of the first law of thermodynamics? ☐ In systems where only the thermal energy changes, the change in thermal energy is equal to the energy transferred into or out of the system as work, heat, or both. The entropy of an isolated system will continue to increase until the system reaches thermal equilibrium. Heat energy is always transferred from a colder object to a warmer object. ☐ An object at rest will remain at rest and an object in motion will remain in motion unless acted upon by an unbalanced force.

1. When gasoline burns in an automobile engine, the heat released (325 J) causes the products CO2 and H20 to expand, which pushes the pistons outward. Excess heat is removed by the car's cooling system. If the work associated with the expanding gases is equal to 451 J, how much is the change in internal energy of the gases? How much is the change in internal energy of the piston?
THERMODYNAMICS: A 1.87 g sample of acetic acid (HC2H3O2) was burned in excess oxygen in a bomb calorimeter. The calorimeter, which alone had a heat capacity of 2.67 kJ/oC, contained 7 g of water. The temperature of the calorimeter and its contents increased from 22.67oC to 27.95oC. What is ΔH (in kJ) for the combustion per 1.00 mol of acetic acid? MW of acetic acid is 60 g/mol. (Round off the final answer to ONE decimal place. Do not include the unit.)
Mothballs are composed primarily of the hydrocarbon naphthalene (C10H8). When 1.025 g of naphthalene burns in a bomb calorimeter, the temperature rises from 24.25 °C to 32.33 °C. Find ΔErxn for the combustion of naphthalene. The heat capacity of the bomb calorimeter, determined in a separate experiment, is 5.11 kJ/°C.
Find the work energy, w, gained or lost by the system when a sample of gas expands from 10 L to 30 L against a constant external pressure of 2.0 atm. [1L· atm = 101 J] -1.01 KJ -3.02 KJ -2.02 KJ 4.04 KJ
A system does 516516 kJ of work and loses 236236 kJ of heat to the surroundings. What is the change in internal energy, Δ?Δ�, of the system? Note that internal energy is symbolized as Δ?Δ� in some sources.
A bomb calorimeter has a heat capacity of 4.66 kJ/°C. When 1.772 g of glucose, C6H₁2O6(s), is combusted in the bomb calorimeter, the temperature of the calorimeter and its contents increased from 22.32 °C to 28.24 °C. Calculate the change in internal energy, AU, for the combustion of 1.772 g of glucose in the bomb calorimeter. AU = -716.36 kJ
A particular container holds 3.77 mol of neon gas. The volume of this container can be altered by sliding a piston in or out. The volume is changed from 8.60 L to 12.20 L while at the same time the temperature is changed from 303 K to 345 K. The molar heat capacity, Cym, for neon is 12.47 J/(mol · K). Assume that this value will not change over the given temperature range. What is the change in entropy for the gas? AS = J/K TOOLS x10 MacBook Pro
If we measure the heat change (q) of everything in a system except the calorimeter, we can use the first law of thermodynamics (∆Euniverse = 0) to calculate the heat change of the calorimeter (qcal). In this reaction, we combine 5.85 g of 63.7 ºC water with 6.63 g of 18.9 ºC water in a calorimeter. Since some of the heat is absorbed by the calorimeter, the final temperature of the water is 28.8ºC. Since the hot and cold water are combined, the final temp of the water is the final temp for the hot water and the cold water. Calculate the heat change of the calorimeter in J. Remember that all of the heat changes must add up to zero so you can calculate the heat change of the hot water (qhotwater) and the heat change of the cold water (qcoldwater) using for each where Cs = 4.186 J/gºC. The first law of thermodynamics tells us that all of these changes sum up to zero so Enter your answer to one decimal place (tenths)
