An 80.0-L volume of an ideal gas in a cylinder with a piston is at a pressure of 3.0atm. While the system is held at constant temperature, enough weight is placed on the piston to increase the external pressure to 10.0atm. For the resulting process, determine q(heat) and w(work) in units of kJ, and with proper signs. (Note: 1 L atm = 101.3 J)
Constant temperature.
Hence, Apply Boyle's law to find the final volume:
V2 = (P1V1) / (P2)
V2 = (3 atm x 80 L) / (10 atm)
V2 = 24 L
Therefore, Work done is given by:
W = -Pext (V2 - V1)
W = -(10 atm) x (24 - 80) L
W = 560 L.atm
W = (560 L.atm ) x (101.3 J)
W = 56728 J ---------------- (Answer)
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
From First law of thermodynamics:
Q = ΔU + W
Here, constant temperature, so ΔU = 0
Q = W
Q = 56728 J ---------------- (Answer)

A 19.0- L volume of an ideal gas in a cylinder with a piston is at a pressure of 3.2 atm . Enough weight is suddenly removed from the piston to lower the external pressure to 1.6 atm . The gas then expands at constant temperature until its pressure is 1.6 atm . The change in the internal energy of a system, ΔE , for an isothermal expansion of an ideal gas is 0.

A cylinder of monatomic ideal gas is sealed in a cylinder by a piston. Initially, the gas occupies a volume of 2.50 L and the pressure is initially 125 kPa. The cylinder is placed in an oven that maintains the temperature at a constant value. 80.0 J of work is then done on the piston, compressing the gas (in other words, the gas does -80 J of work). The work is done very slowly so that the gas maintains a...
He gas is confined to a piston and cylinder with a mechanical stop that prevents the cylinder from expanding. The temperature of the gas is 298 K, the volume of gas in the cylinder is 1.20 L and its pressure is 2.15 bar. The ideal gas EOS is very accurate for He under these conditions. Starting from the final state of the He gas in part (b), the gas (and apparatus) was cooled from 298 K to 263 K. The...
