Two moles of an ideal gas [ (J/K-mol) = 20 + 0.01 T] is heated at constant pressure from 27°C to 127 — Thermodynamics and Thermochemistry Chemistry Question
Question
Two moles of an ideal gas [$C_{v,m}$ (J/K-mol) = 20 + 0.01 T] is heated at constant pressure from 27°C to 127°C. The amount of heat absorbed by the gas is
Answer: C
💡 Solution & Explanation
$C_{p,m}$ = $C_{v,m}$ + R = (20 + 0.01 T) + 8.314 = 28.314 + 0.01 T J/K-mol. Heat absorbed at constant pressure is q_p = n * int_{T1}^{T2} $C_{p,m}$ dT = 2 * int_{300}^{400} (28.314 + 0.01 T) dT = 2 * [28.314 * (400 - 300) + 0.005 * (400^2 - 300^2)] = 2 * [2831.4 + 0.005 * 70000] = 2 * [2831.4 + 350] = 2 * 3181.4 = 6362.8 J.
