Questions On Concepts Q5.1) : and and
Q5.1) Classify the following processes as spontaneous or not spontaneous and explain
your answer. a) The reversible isothermal expansion of an ideal gas. b) The vaporization
of superheated water at 102ºC and 1 bar. c) The constant pressure melting of ice at its
normal freezing point by the addition of an infinitesimal quantity of heat. d) The
adiabatic expansion of a gas into a vacuum.
This is the case because ∆Hfusion and ∆Hvaporization are always positive. In each of these
transitions, attractive forces must be overcome.
Q5.3) Why is the efficiency of a Carnot heat engine the upper bound to the efficiency of
an internal combustion engine?
This the case because the maximum work than can be done on the surroundings in the
expansion of a gas is in a reversible process.
No, because dissipative forces are acting on the system. If the amplitude did not
decrease, no dispersive forces act on the system and the oscillation is reversible in the
limit of very small amplitudes. If the amplitude did not decrease with time, no dissipative
forces act on the system, and because the amplitude is very small, the process is
reversible.
Q5.5) A process involving an ideal gas is carried out in which the temperature changes
at constant volume. For a fixed value ∆T, the mass of the gas is doubled. The process is
repeated with the same initial mass and ∆T is doubled. For which of these processes is ∆S
greater? Why?
∆S is greater if the mass is doubled, because ∆S increases linearly with the amount of
material. By contrast, ∆S only increases as the logarithm of the temperature. This
increase is much slower than a linear increase.

Q5.6) Under what conditions does the equality ∆S = hold?
T

dq
Because ∆S = / reversible = ∆H . This is the case for a
, the equality holds if dq

reversible process at constant pressure.
For a spontaneous process, ∆S + ∆S surroundings < 0. The inequality ∆S < 0 is satisfied only
if ∆S surroundings > 0 and ∆Ssurroundings > ∆S .

ideal gas?
No. Because β and κ are not independent of V for an ideal gas, they can’t be taken out of
the integral.
Q5.9) Without using equations, explain why ∆S for a liquid or solid is dominated by the
temperature dependence of S as both P and T change.
It is useful to think of S = S(V,T). Because V changes very little with P for a liquid or
solid, entropy changes are dominated by changes in T rather than P for liquids and solids.
Q5.10) You are told that ∆S = 0 for a process in which the system is coupled to its
surroundings. Can you conclude that the process is reversible? Justify your answer.

P5.2) Consider the reversible Carnot cycle shown in Figure 5.2 with 1 mol of an ideal
gas with CV = 3/2R as the working substance. The initial isothermal expansion occurs at
the hot reservoir temperature of Thot = 600ºC from an initial volume of 3.50 L (Va) to a
volume of 10.0 L (Vb). The system then undergoes an adiabatic expansion until the
temperature falls to Tcold = 150ºC. The system then undergoes an isothermal compression
and a subsequent adiabatic compression until the initial state described by Ta = 600ºC and
Va = 3.50 L is reached.

P5.21) A 25.0 g mass of ice at 273 K is added to 150.0 g of H2O(l) at 360 K at constant
pressure. Is the final state of the system ice or liquid water? Calculate ∆S for the process.
Assume initially that the final state is water. If this is not the case, the calculated
temperature will be below 273K. Calculate ∆S for the ice and water separately, and add
them to get the overall ∆S for the process.

P5.24) One mole of H2O(l) is supercooled to –2.25ºC at 1 bar pressure. The freezing
temperature of water at this pressure is 0.00ºC. The transformation
H2O(l) → H2O(s) is suddenly observed to occur. By calculating ∆S, ∆Ssurroundings and
∆Stotal , verify that this transformation is spontaneous at –2.25ºC. The heat capacities are
given by CP(H2O(l)) = 75.3 J K–1 mol–1 and CP(H2O(s))= 37.7 J K–1 mol–1, and
∆Hfusion = 6.008 kJ mol–1 at 0.00ºC. Assume that the surroundings are at –2.25ºC. [Hint:
Consider the two pathways at 1 bar: (a) H2O(l, –2.25ºC) → H2O(s, –2.25ºC) and (b)
H2O(l, –2.25ºC) → H2O(l, 0.00ºC) → H2O(s, 0.00ºC) → H2O(s, –2.25ºC). Because S is a
state function, ∆S must be the same for both pathways.]

freezer is typically held at 255 K. If the room temperature is 294 K, by what factor is it

refrigerator? Assume that the theoretical limit for the performance of a reversible

P5.27) The Chalk Point, Maryland, generating station supplies electrical power to the
Washington, D.C., area. Units 1 and 2 have a gross generating capacity of 710 MW
(megawatt). The steam pressure is 25 × 106 Pa, and the superheater outlet temperature
(Th) is 540ºC. The condensate temperature (Tc) is 30ºC.
a. What is the efficiency of a reversible Carnot engine operating under these conditions?
b. If the efficiency of the boiler is 91.2%, the overall efficiency of the turbine, which
includes the Carnot efficiency and its mechanical efficiency, is 46.7%, and the efficiency
of the generator is 98.4%, what is the efficiency of the total generating unit? (Another 5%
needs to be subtracted off for other plant losses.)

nonfocusing solar collector, the temperature can reach a value of 90.0ºC. A heat engine is

ice at 0ºC. If the room temperature is 20ºC, what mass of ice can be produced in one
minute by a 0.25-hp motor that is running continuously? Assume that the refrigerator is
