Question

What amount of heat must be supplied to 2.0×102kg of nitrogen (at room temperature) to raise its temperature by 45oC at constant pressure? (Molecular mass of N2=28:R=8.3mol1K1.)

Solution

Mass of nitrogen, m=2.0×102kg=20g
Rise in temperature, ΔT=45oC
Molecular mass of N2,M=28
Universal gas constant, R=8.3J/molK
Number of moles, n=m/M
=(2×102×103) / 28
=0.714
Molar specific heat at constant pressure for nitrogen, Cp = (7/2)R
=(7/2)×8.3
=29.05Jmol1K1
The total amount of heat to be supplied is given by the relation:
Q=nCPΔT
=0.714×29.05×45
=933.38J
Therefore, the amount of heat to be supplied is 933.38 J.
