When fuel is burned in a cylinder equipped with a piston, the volume expands from 0.265 Lto 1.390 Lagainst an external pressure of 1.01 atm In addition, 857 J is emitted as heat. What is ΔE for the burning of the fuel?
Answer:
Step 1: Explanation
According to the first law of thermodynamics the change in internal energy of a system (ΔU) equals to the net heat transfer into the system (Q) plus the net work done on the system (W).
In equation form, the first law of thermodynamics is;
ΔE = Q + W
Where, ΔE = is the change in internal energy of the system.
Q = is the net heat transferred into the system
W = is the net work done on the system.
Step 2: Calculate the work done
Given,
V1 = 0.265 L and V2 = 1.390 L and P ext = 1.01 atm
We know work done is given by
W = - P ext × ΔV
=> W = - P ext × ( V2-V1 ) = -1.01 atm × ( 1.390 - 0.265 ) L = -1.13625 atm-L
Work done in Joules = (-1.13625 atm-L × 101.3 J / atm-L ) = -115.102125 J
Step 3: Calculation of internl energy
Given
Q = - 857 J [ here negative sign means heat is emitted from the system ]
w = -115.102125 J
By using the first law of thermodynamics
ΔE = Q + W
=>ΔE = (-857 J) + (-115.102125 J)
=> ΔE = -972.1 J
Hence, the ΔE of the burning of the fuel = -972.1 J
