Question

A gas expands from 3 dm3 to 21 dm3 against a constant pressure of 2.1 atm. The work during expansion is used to heat 10 mole of water of temperature 290 K. Final temperature of water (in K)is:
(Round the answer to the nearest intiger.)
(Given: Specific heat of water=4.2 J g1 K1, 1 L.atm=101.325 J)

A

Solution

Work is done against constant P.
ΔV=213=18 dm3=18 litreP=2.1 atmW=P.ΔV=2.1×18 litre atm=2.1×18×101.325 J
Now this work is used up in heating water.
W=m×C×ΔT2.1×18×101.325=10×18×4.2ΔTΔT=5.06 KFinal temperature =T1+ΔT=290+5.06=295.06 K295 K
