Answer to Problem 103AE
Nitrogen gas changes to liquid nitrogen hence volume decrease that causes surrounding work on the system.
Explanation of Solution
Given reaction:
To predict the sign of w and its direction, the coefficients of all the gaseous products and reactants must be checked. If reaction forms more moles of gaseous products compared to gaseous reactants the reaction will expand the volume and the system does work on the surroundings. When the reaction forms more moles of gaseous reactant compare to gaseous products, the reaction will contract the volume and the surrounding will work on the system. If the gaseous reactant and product numbers are same, it means no change in volume and no work will be done.
Here, nitrogen gas changes to liquid nitrogen hence volume decrease that causes surrounding work on the system.

Answer to Problem 103AE
The number of gaseous products is formed from solid and liquid reactant hence volume increases during the reaction that causes expansion of system and work done on the surroundings.
