Chapter 2, Problem 2.1CP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:For the given system, whether the heat or work flow across the boundary between system and surroundings or not needs to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

An adiabatic procedure is one which takes place so vastly that no heat transfer takes placebetween the system, or within the system and surroundings.If the heat is added at constant volume the heat energy goes completely into increasing the internal kinetic energy of the substances.

Answer to Problem 2.1CP

On the resistor work is done and this work is done within the surrounding. The liquid’s temperature is changed by 1 0C. Hence due to the variation in temperature between system and surroundings, the flow of heat takes place across the boundary between surrounding and system.

Explanation of Solution

Suppose there is an adiabatic system containing a heating water and coil against a constant atmospheric pressure P atm.

  Physical Chemistry, Chapter 2, Problem 2.1CP

The temperature increases when electrical energy is introduced within the system. As per the law of thermodynamics when energy is removed, the same amount of energy gets back in additional form. Therefore,

  ΔU=dq+dW

Here,

  ΔU = change in internal energy,

  dq = heat change

  dW = work completed.

Adiabatic container is the system that means that no heat is exchanged from the system as well as its surroundings.

  dq = 0

Hence,

  ΔU = dW

On the resistor work is done and it is done within the surroundings.

The liquid’s temperature is changed by 1 0C. Hence due to the variation in temperature between system and surroundings, the flow of heat takes place across the boundary between surrounding and system.

A student proposes the transformation below in one step of an organic synthesis. There may be one or more reactants missing from the left-hand side, but there are no products missing from the right-hand side. There may also be catalysts, small inorganic reagents, and other important reaction conditions missing from the arrow. • Is the student's transformation possible? If not, check the box under the drawing area. . If the student's transformation is possible, then complete the reaction by adding any missing reactants to the left-hand side, and adding required catalysts, inorganic reagents, or other important reaction conditions above and below the arrow. • You do not need to balance the reaction, but be sure every important organic reactant or product is shown. + T X O O лет-ле HO OH HO OH This transformation can't be done in one step.
