Chapter 4, Problem 4.4E

Explain why the spontaneity conditions given in the equation 4.3 and 4.4 are in terms of the general derivatives d U and d H and not some partial derivative of U and H with respect to some other state variable.

(a) How much work is required to compress 4.99 mol of air at 20.4°C and 1.00 atm to one-tenth of the original volume by an isothermal process? (b) How much work is required to produce the same compression in an adiabatic process? (c) What is the final pressure in part (a)? (d) What is the final pressure in part (b)?
8. Three moles of a monoatomic perfect gas are allowed to expand isothermally at 298 K from 0.01 m3 to 0.05 m3. Calculate heat, work, U and H when the expansion is carried out (a) reversibly, and (b) isobarically against a constant pressure of 1.5 bar.
A sample consisting of 0.10 mol of perfect gas molecules is held by a piston inside a cylinder such that the volume is 1.25 dm3; the external pressure is constant at 1.00 bar and the temperature is maintained at 300 K by a thermostat. The piston is released so that the gas can expand. Calculate (a) the volume of the gas when the expansion is complete; (b) the work done when the gas expands; (c) the heat absorbed by the system. Hence calculate ΔStot.
