Thermodynamics Exercises: o A. e em

This document contains 11 thermodynamics exercises involving calculations of work (W), heat (Q), change in internal energy (ΔU), change in enthalpy (ΔH), change in entropy (ΔS), and change in free energy (ΔG) for ideal gases and real gases undergoing various processes like isothermal expansion/compression, heating at constant volume or pressure, and chemical reactions. The exercises involve using equations of state, thermodynamic properties of gases, and bond energies to calculate thermodynamic functions for the processes described.

THERMODYNAMICS EXERCISES

1. Two moles of the ideal gas is confined under a constant pressure, Pop = p = 200 kPa. The
temperature is changed from 150 °C to 50 °C. Cv = R. Calculate W, Q, and U.
2. Three moles of an ideal gas Cv = 22.8 J/K mol, is transformed at constant volume from 0°C to
75 °C. Calculate Q, W, U and H.
3. Calculate H and U for the transformation of two mole of an ideal gas from 27 °C and 1
atm to 327 °C and 17 atm. Cp = 20.9 + 0.042 T J/K mol.

dm3 to 60 dm3 (a = 0.556 m6Pamol-2; b= 0.064 dm3/mol). For the van der Waals gas,
(U/V)r = a/V2. Calculate Q, W, U and H for the transformation.
7. The temperature of 1 mol of an ideal gas is increased from 100 K to 300 K; Cv = 3/2 R.

b. Calculate S if the pressure is constant
c. What would S be if 3 mol were used instead of 1 mole.
