Chapter 4.3, Problem 28P
Imagine that your dog has eaten the portion of Table 4.1 that gives entropy data; only the enthalpy data remains. Explain how you could reconstruct the missing portion of the table. Use your method to explicitly check a few of the entries for consistency. How much of Table 4.2 could you reconstruct if it were missing? Explain.

Hi, could I get some help with this macro-connection physics problem involving isothermal expansion?
The set up is:
For an isothermal reversible expansion of two moles of an ideal gas, what is the entropy change of the a) gas and b) the surroundings in J/K to 4 digits of precision if the gas volume quadruples, assuming NA = 6.022e23 and kB = 1.38e-23 J/K?
Thank you.

By considering the number of accessible states for an ideal two-dimensional gas made up of N adsorbed molecules on a surface of area A, obtain an expression for the entropy of a system of this kind. Use the entropy expression to obtain the equation of state in terms of N, A, and the force per unit length F. What is the specific heat of the two-dimensional gas at constant area?

The total length L of the rubber band is the net displacement from the beginning of the first link to the end of the last link. Using the thermodynamic identity, you can now express the tension force F in terms of a partial derivative of the entropy. From this expression, compute the tension in terms of L, T , N, and l.arrow_forward
