in this video we're going to focus on
solving thermodynamic problems
particularly problems associated with
internal energy heat
work isothermal
isocoric adiabatic processes and even
isobar processes but first let's go over
the equations that we need to
know let's organize it into a table so
on the left side the First Column we're
talk about the different types of
processes that you need to
know and then here we're going to have
work Q which represents the heat flow
also Delta U the change in internal
energy so the first process that we're
process now for an isocoric process what
you need to know is that the change in
volume is equal to zero the volume is
constant and because the volume is
constant the work done for an isocoric
process will always be equal to
zero now the change in internal energy
W so therefore since W is zero the
change in internal energy will simply be
equal to
Q to calculate
Q you can use this equation it's equal
to n * CV * Delta
C now if you don't know what these
variables mean don't worry just sit back
relax take notes throughout the video
I'm going to explain how to use these
equations and also when to use them I'm
going to give you plenty of practice
problems for you to work
on but you need to know that n
represents the number of moles CV is
basically the molar heat
capacity when the volume is constant of
an idal gas and delta T is the change in
temperature delta T can be in Kelvin or
Celsius anytime you see just T in the
equation without the triangle the
temperature has to be in kelvin if you
see the triangle associated with it it
can be in Celsius or kelvin the change
in temperature in celsius and Kelvin is the
the
same but when you multiply or divide by
kelvin now the next thing that we need
in an isobaric process the change in
pressure is equal to zero the pressure is
is
constant under constant pressure
conditions you can calculate the work
using this
equation it's equal to the pressure
volume by the way you can also calculate
the work using this equation NR * delta T
T
we'll talk more about that throughout this
this
video now what about Q for an isobaric
process what equation will be useful to
us so like the equation above Q is going
to be equal to NC delta T but instead of
CV it's going to be
CP because we're dealing with constant
pressure CP is the m heat capacity of a
gas measured at constant pressure and
temperature now Delta U you can always
use this
equation it's the heat minus the amount of
of
work now another equation that you can
use to calculate Delta U for any process
equation it's ncv delta T keep in mind
Delta U is equal to Q for an isocoric
process but Delta is always equal to n
T now the next thing that we need to
process under this process the
temperature is
now because the change in temperature is
equal to
zero notice that Delta U will be equal
to zero so under isothermal conditions
the change in internal energy is always
Zer if that's the case then Q minus W is
equal to Z which means that Q is equal
so how do we calculate the work or the
heat exchange in an isothermal process
let's see if I can fit this equation in
here so one way to do it is to use this
log the final
another equation that you can use in
terms of
pressure keep in mind if you want to
find Q it equals this as well but you
can also use this
equation it's equal to
pressure divided by the final
pressure pressure and volume are
inversely related by the way make sure
you know the gas laws because with this
with these types of problems you can be
dealing with gases for example in an
isocoric process because the volume is
constant if the temperature increases
the pressure will increase
therefore you can use this
T1 is equal to P2 / T2 for an isocoric
process now what about an isobaric
process where the pressure is
constant whenever you increase the
temperature at constant pressure the
volume has to
increase if you've taken chemistry and
you've studied the gas laws this is
known as Charles's
Law whenever you heat a gas the gas will
expand now the equation that you need
for this type of
situation is
T2 now there's a lot more equations that
we need
under isothermal conditions if you
increase the
pressure the volume will decrease and
likewise if you increase the
volume the pressure will
decrease volume and pressure are
inversely related this is known as a
boils law so the equation that is
associated with Bo's law is P1 V1 is
now the last process that we need to go
over is the adiabatic
adiabatic
process under this
process Q is equal to zero so what this
means is that no heat flows into or out
of the system now this can occur if
let's say the process occurs quickly or
if it's well insulated because heat
takes time to flow from one place to
another a process that happens quickly
will allow a very small amount of heat
to travel through so basically you could
zero H I should have put
column now because Q is equal to zero
that means that the change in internal
energy is equal to negative
W so let's write that over here so Delta
U is equal to
W and Delta U is always equal to ncv
delta T which means that the work is
equal to
negative n the number of
moles times
CV the molar heat capacity at constant
volume times the change in
temperature now there are some other
equations associated with this
process and I'm going to add that
throughout this video but something that
you need to know is that CV for a
monoatomic gas is equal to 3 over2 *
R and that's true for any of these
processes a monoatomic gas is simply a
gas that contains one atom for a
diatomic gas we'll talk about what to do
in those circumstances
later make sure you know that CP
is equal to 5/2 * R for a monoatomic ideal
gas so those are the main equations that
you need to know for now there are more
equations but we'll go over that
video so what exactly is
thermodynamics thermodynamics is
basically it's associated with the study
of heat mechanical work and internal
energy and how these three correlates to
each other the first law of
thermodynamics is basically uh this
equation Delta U is equal to Q minus
w u represents the internal energy of a
system and it's proportional to
temperature Q represents the amount of
system there's basically two ways of
transferring energy
and that is through heat and mechanical
work if you apply a force on a box you
can increase its kinetic energy or you
add heat to a system the temperature
will go up and the kinetic energy of the
molecules will
increase whenever heat flows into the
system Q is
positive and Q is negative when heat
a positive Q
value increases the internal energy of a
system because heat is entering into the
system a negative Q value will decrease
the internal energy of the
system the next thing you need to know
is the signs for
work when work is done by the
system W is
positive now let's think about that
imagine if you're doing work if you're
running if you're exercising you're
burning energy as you do work your
internal energy will go
down so whenever the system does work
its internal energy decreases so work is
system W is negative if work is done on a
a
system that is if the surroundings
perform work on a system a good example
is if you compress a
gas and let's say the system is the gas
work is being done on the system the
internal energy will increase now if the gas
gas
expands then it's doing positive work
decreases now let's work on this
particular practice problem for each of
these questions make sure you pause the
video and work on these problems
yourself that's the best way you're
going to learn
thermodynamics calculate the change in internal
internal
energy the system absorbs 300 Jew of
heat and performs 500 Jews of work so
system now 300 jewles of energy enters the
the
system that means the internal energy
should go up by 300 and also the system
performs 500 jewles of work now because
heat is flowing into the system we know
Q is positive
300 if work is done by the system that means
means
positive so using the equation Delta U
is equal to Q - W this is going to be
300 - 500
so the change in internal energy is200
Jew now let's make sense of this heat
flows from the surroundings into the
system and 300 Jews of heat flows into
it and the system performs work to do
work it has to expend energy so it's to
losing 500 Jews of
energy so therefore we can see that the
net change is 200 it took in 300 jewles
as heat and it lost 500 Jews by means of
surroundings now what about Part B the
system absorbs 720 Jew of heat energy
and the surroundings perform 300 Jew on a
a
system so is cute positive or negative
in this particular example since heat is
absorbed Q is
positive now what about W is it positive or
or
negative well the surroundings perform
300 Jews of work on a
system so work is done on a system and
therefore W is negative whenever that's the
case so using the
equation Delta Al to Q minus W it's
going to be
720 minus -300 which is the same as 720
plus 300 and that's equal to 1,20
C what is w in this problem and what's
Q 400 Jew of work is done all on a
system so is W positive or
negative just like before anytime work
is done on a system W is negative now
the system loses 225 jewles of heat
energy so Q is negative because heat
went from the system to the surroundings
anytime the system loses heat or
releases heat into the surroundings Q is
negative so now using this
equation it's going to be -225
minus -400 which is the same as
-225 +
400 which is positive
175 so the internal energy of the system
went up because more work was done on a
system compared to the amount of heat
energy lost by the
system so the system gained a net of 175
jewles of
energy now what is the difference
between an open system a closed system
and an isolated
system in an open
system matter can enter into and out of
the system so let's say like oxygen gas
out in addition energy can flow into or
out of the system so heat can flow into
system matter cannot enter or leave in a closed
closed
system so oxygen gas O2 will not be able
to enter however heat can flow into or
out of a closed system so in an open
system matter and energy can flow into
and out of it but in a closed system
energy can flow into or out of it but
not matter
system no energy or matter can flow into
system so because heat can't flow into
it Q is equal to
zero and no type of energy can enter
into the system so that means that there
can be no work uh done on a system or by
the system so w is zero which means that
the internal energy is constant so the
change in internal energy of an isolated
system is always zero so keep that in
mind the equation Delta U is equal to Q
minus W typically applies to a closed
system where energy can enter into or
out of it for an open system you have to
take into account the amount of matter
that that enters or leave the
system but this equation usually applies
system let's try this problem how much
work is required to compress a
monoatomic ideal gas at a pressure of
2.5 * 10 5
pascals from an initial volume of 015
Cub M to a final volume of 01b
M so is this an isocoric process
isobaric adiabatic or isothermal process
notice that the pressure is constant as
a result this is an isobaric
process and what exactly is an ideal
gas some gases behave almost ideally
others do not basically if a gas behaves
in a way that fits this equation nicely
it behaves it's almost ideally this is
the isog gas law equation pressure time
volume is equal to the moles of the gas
temperature now what about a monoatomic
gas what is that
exactly the word or the prefix
mono means one a monoatomic gas is a gas
that contains molecules that have a
single atom so noble gases such as
helium helium argon
gases contain molecules with two atoms
the word d is associated with two so
oxygen gas nitrogen gas hydrogen gas
these are datomic
datomic
poly means many polyatomic gases have
molecules with many atoms sulfur dioxide
has a total of three atoms 1 plus 2 is
three sulfur trioxide is a polyatomic
gas carbon dioxide too these are gases
atoms now here's another question for
you the gas is being
compressed do you predict the sign of w
to be positive or negative in this
case anytime a gas expands the work done
compression the work is done on the gas
by the surroundings so therefore the
work is negative so our final answer for
the first part of this problem should be negative
so what equation can we use to calculate
the work required to compress this gas
now ear in a video I mentioned that for
isobaric processes the work is equal to
the pressure times the change in volume
but let's derive that
if we have a gas
and let's say this
to compress the
gas the Piston is going to move a certain
D now the work done to apply a force to
move any object is simply the force
and anytime you apply a force over a
certain area you're applying a pressure
pressure
pressure is equal to force / area so if
we multiply both sides by a we can see
that the pressure times the area is
equal to the
force so therefore we can replace f with
p *
a so the work is therefore equal to the
pressure times the
area times the
displacement or the distance that the
gas now for a rectangular solid volume
is equal to the length time the width
time the height and we know that the
area of a rectangle is length time width
so we can view the volume as being the
area times the height and you can think
of the height as being the
change in the displacement of the Piston
so we can say V is equal to a times Delta
D so therefore we can replace this term
V so that's how we can come up with the
V now let's draw a PV diagram for this
isobaric process this is a graph that
contains pressure and volume we're going
to put pressure on the Y AIS volume on
the x-
pascals and we have two volumes the
lower value is 01 and the higher value is
is
now because the gas is being compressed
we're going to start at the higher value
and travel towards the lower value let's
call this position a and position
B so we're going to travel from A to
B it turns out that the area of the PB
diagram is equal to the work done on a
gas or by the
now we know that the area is equal to
the length times the
width the length of this rectangle is
pressure and the
width of the rectangle is the change in
volume It's the final volume minus the initial
initial
volume so we can say the width is equal
to Delta V the change volume so
therefore another way to get the
equation for work for this particular PV
diagram is equal to the pressure which
is L times the width or the change in
volume so that's another way in which
you can derive this equation from the PV
diagram so sometimes you need to use the
fact that the work is equal to the
change in area it's going to help you to
calculate the work um for problems that
but now let's finish this
problem so w is equal to P Delta V for
an isobaric
pascals the change in volume is the
final volume which is
01 minus the initial volume of 015 and
units for that is cubic
meters now you need to pay attention to
the units 1 Pascal * 1 cubic m is equal
to one
Jewel sometimes you might see the units
liters and
ATMs 1 lit * 1
Jew so you don't need to convert ATM
into pascals and liters into cubic
meters you can simply multiply these two
and convert it once into Jews if you
that now for those of you who want to
convert ATM into pascals and liters into
cubic meters here are the conversion
factors that you need to
know 1 atm one atmospheric pressure is
1.013 * 10 5 pascals
and 1 cubic meter is equal to 1,000
lit so you may or may not need those
conversions but you have them now just
in case if they ever become important in
the future but now let's go back to this
problem so if you type this in exactly
the way you see it in your
1250w and we could see why it's negative
because the gas is compressed by an outside
outside
force so now that we have the work done
on the
gas what is the change in the internal
system now we have the heat and heat is
being released by the system so Q is- 350
so we can use the equation Delta U is
equal to Q minus W so that's
-350 minus
1250 so
therefore the change in internal
Jews let's try this problem how much
work does a gas perform at a constant
pressure of 8.4 ATM as it expands from a
volume of 2 L to 4.5
l so under constant pressure conditions
we can use this equation once
more work is equal to pressure times the
change in
volume so the pressure is 8.4
atmospheres and the volume changes from
final minus initial 4.5 minus
minus 2.0
l so this is equal to
21 L *
ATM now typically you want your answer
to be in Jews so let's convert
it as we mentioned before there's 101.3
atm notice that because the gas expanded
the final answer is 2,127
jewles 4.5 moles of an ideal gas is
heated at constant pressure from 30 C to 150
150
C calculate the work performed by this
gas draw a PB diagram for the process as
well so the equation that we can use is
this equation work is equal to n * R * delta
T now keep in mind PV is equal to nrt
this is the idog gas law equation so
therefore the pressure times the change
in volume must be equal to n r * the
change in
t so so if work is equal to P Delta V
T N is the number of moles we have 4.5
moles of an Ido
gas R is the energy constant for a gas it's
8.3145 jewles per mole per Kelvin
now the temperature difference in
Celsius is equal to the temperature
difference in kelvin anytime you have a
delta T value it can be in kelvin or
Celsius the change in temperature 150
minus 30 is
Jews so let's multiply these three numbers
numers so the final answer for this
problem is
jewles now the work is positive because
as you heat the gas it will expand
according to Charles's Law whenever you
increase the temperature of a gas at
constant pressure the volume of that gas must
diagram now that we know the volume is
increasing we know which direction in
the PV diagram we're moving
towards so here's the pressure here's the
the
volume and the current pressure is about
we don't know what the current pressure
now we don't know what V1 or V2 is equal
to but we can just call it V1 V2 we do
increasing so if we call this point a
and point B at Point a the temperature
is 30° C and at point B it's
150 to increase the volume you have to
increase the temperature or at least
that's one way in which you can increase the
the
volume so imagine if you have a a
piston and then you have a gas
inside which is at 30°
C if you add heat to this
gas particularly at a slow rate so that
the pressure is
constant the temperature of the gas will
increase and as that happens the vol
volume will
increase the gas will exert a
force that will push up the Piston
pressure and as the volume increases the
gas is performing work against the
surroundings so anytime you heat up a
gas at constant pressure the volume will increase
the pressure of a gas inside a rigid 2.4
L cylinder is decreased from 4.8 to 3.4
ATM so how can we accomplish this well
let's say if we have a metal rigid
cylinder and there's a gas inside let's
say the temperature of this gas is 300
Kelvin and at this temperature let's say
that the pressure is 4.8 ATM
now the volume is constant because we
have a rigid cylinder the cylinder has a
fixed volume of 2.4 l so therefore this
is an isocoric
process under constant volume the only
way to really decrease the
temperature if the air of the
surroundings let's say if it's less than
300 Kelvin let's
put it at 200 Kelvin heat is going to
naturally flow from hot to cold so heat
energy is going to leave the gas into
the colder surroundings and as that
happens the pressure will
decrease the relationship between
pressure and temperature under constant volume
volume
conditions is this this is uh believe
it's called gayus sax
law temperature and pressure are
directly related
so we can use this equation to calculate
the new pressure or the new temperature
uh whichever we need but we don't need
to do all of that for this problem
whenever you have an isocoric
process you need to know that the work
is always equal to zero whenever the
constant for one thing if you use the
equation work equals P Delta
V the change in volume is zero so the
work has to be zero that's one way you
4.8 and it's decreasing into 3.4 at a
l so we're going from position a to position
position
B notice that this graph has no
area because the area is
zero that is the area between this curve
and the x axis since there's no area the
work is therefore equal to zero so for
any isocoric process W is always equal to
zero how much heat energy is required to
increase the temperature of 7 moles
of each of the following gases by 50
kin so first we have helium at a
constant volume of 5.4
L perhaps in an earlier chapter you've
learned that Q is equal to M cap where m
is the mass C is the specific heat
capacity and delta T is the
temperature Q can also be used in terms
of moles it's equal to n c * Delta V
where C is the molar heat capacity
at constant volume you want to use CV
the molar heat capacity measured at a
constant volume
process and under constant pressure
conditions you want to use
pressure now what
exactly is CV for
helium we see we have an isocoric
process the volume is constant but what
is is CV for H how can we find it Well
the first thing you should do is look it
up in your
12.47 Jews per mole per
Kelvin now if you don't have this value
you can estimate it using this equation
CV is approximately equal to 32 * R for
gas now let's see how close the answer
is going to be or the CV value rather so
8.3145 and let's multiply that by 3 and
divid by
two this is equal to
12.47 2 which is very close to this
value so for most monoatomic gases
cval 32 R is a good approximation of the actual
actual
value so chances are for a question like
this you probably won't be given the CV
value you just have to know that CV is
equal to 3 over2 * R for monatomic
gas so now let's use the
equation Q is equal to ncv delta
T so we have seven moles of gas CV let's use
use
12.47 and delta T the change in
Kelvin so
Q is equal to positive
positive
43645 juw
a positive Q value is typically
associated with an increase in
temperature so the change in temperature
positive now what about Part B at a
constant pressure of 9.2
ATM by the way if you have the ch in
temperature you really don't need to use
the value of the volume or the value of the
the
9.2 it's only important if you don't
know the change in
temperature so for Part B Q is going to
be equal to n * CP * delt T so what is
CP for a monoatomic gas argon is a monoatomic
monoatomic
gas it's a gas that is composed of
particles that have only one atom N2 is
molecule now we said that CV is 3 over2
R for a monoatomic gas but CP is going
to be 5 over 2 * R the actual value for
20.78 and if we take 5 over2 and
8.3145 this will give us
20.78 which is still pretty close to this
number so for monoatomic gases make sure
that you know that CP is equal to 5
over2 * R because if you don't have
access to a table or if this value is
not provided you have to use uh this
fact to calculate
CP so Q is going to be stimes
Kelvin so this is positive
now what about part C where we have a
diatomic molecule or part D where we
have a molecule with three atoms what
can we do so let's
review so CV is equal to 3 over2 * R for
a monoatomic gas that is a gas basically
with one atom in a molecule or in a
particle for diatomic gases it's
approxim equal to 5 2 * R and nitrogen
fits that
description now for polyatomic gases
with three molecules it turns out that
it's approximately 7/2 * R however at
this point it begins to deviate so let's
use an approximately equal 2
symbol so CO2 would fit this example it
has three atoms per
gas it's 7 over2 * R for a diatomic gas like
approximately 9 /2 *
triatomic so now let's go back to
N2 if you look up in your textbook the
values for CP and CV for N2 you'll see
that CV is 20.7
CP is 29.7
for N2 at least that's according to the
textbook that I
have so for diatomic gas who said it's 5
over 2 * R so if you take 8.3145
multiply by 5 and divide by two this is
going to give you 20. 786 which we
calculated that earlier and as you can
see it's not exactly the same but it's
still pretty close so for monoatomic
gases and diatomic gases
you can use these equations to get a good
good
approximation for CP it's 7/2 *
R so 8.3145 * 7 / 2 is about
29.1 which is still a good approximation for
for
CP once you start having molecules with
three atoms then it begins to
deviate but let's finish part C so Q is
going to be n times not CP but we're
going to use
CV since we want to find out how much
heat is required to increase the
volume so it's going to be 7 *
50 and this is
now for Part D CO2 let's talk about the
values of CV and
2846 and
CP is equal to 36.9
4 so now if we approximate CV using the
equation 7/2
R this is going to be 8.31 4 5 * 7 / 2
and that's
29.1 as you can see there's a slight
difference uh between these two
values you might be maybe 2% off but
it's still pretty close so if you don't
have the actual value of CV for CO2 go
ahead and use this approximation but if
you have it preferably use this one now
delta
T so it's 7 *
Jew the temperature of a sample of ideal
gas increase from 300 Kelvin to 500
kin calculate the change of the internal
energy if there were five moles of a monoatomic
gas anytime you want to find a
change in the Eternal energy of the
system you can use this equation Delta U
is equal to n CV delta
T now keep in mind for a monoatomic ideal
ideal
gas the CV value is 32 *
R so Delta U is equal to n or simply 3
over2 NR delta T for monoatomic idog
gas so it's going to be 3 over2 * 5
moles R is
8.3145 and the change in
temperature final minus the initial
value that's 500 - 300 which is a change
12,472 Jews round it to the nearest whole
number now what about Part B for Part B
we can use the same equation
but for a datomic gas
CV is equal to 5/ 2 *
R so therefore for datomic gas we have
T and this part n is going to
be 8 R is
so this is equal to
how much work is required to compress
7.5 moles of an idal gas at 400 Kelvin
from 5.2 L to 2.1
l so what type of process do we
diagram notice that the temperature is
constant under constant temperature
conditions we have an isothermal
process and during an isothermal
process the change in internal energy is
zero so that's the answer for the second
part of the
problem keep in mind Delta U is always
equal to n CV delta T for any
process so for an isothermal process
delta T is zero which means that that
zero now just because the temperature is
constant doesn't mean q is zero heat can
still flow into the system or out of the
system it just happens in such a way
constant now during an ISO thermal
process as the volume of the gas
increases the pressure will decrease
now it's not going to decrease like this
according to B's law it's going to
decrease more like
that it's not a straight line it's actually
curve but how can we calculate the work required
to compress this particular gas so if
the gas is being compressed let's say if
we're going from position a to position B
B
we're going this way as you travel
towards the left of a PV diagram the
work done is going to be negative
anytime you're compressing a
gas W is negative anytime the gas
expands W is
positive now the work done is going to
be equal to the area under the curve so
how can we calculate this particular
area it doesn't look like a rectangle so
we can't use the area equation which is
length time
width to get the formula that you need
calculus the work required which is the
area under the curve is simply the
anti-derivative of the pressure
so it's the anti-derivative of P
DV now according to the ideal gas law
nrt let's get p as a function of v so if
we divide both sides by
v p is equal to
V so there therefore we have this
equation we can now replace p with nrt over
V now since the differential is based on
the variable
V we're going to treat nrt as constants
so we can move it in front of the
integral so the work is going to be
nrt times the
anti-derivative of 1 / V DV
now for those of you who have taken
calculus you know that the
anti-derivative of 1 /x is equal to Ln X
for those who haven't taken calculus
yet just sit back relax and then you'll
see the equation that you need in order
to solve this problem I'm just going to
equation so if the anti-derivative of 1
/x is L and X the anti-derivative
log of V evaluated from position a to
position B which position a was the
initial volume and position B was the final
volume so it's going to be
nrt we need to plug in these two values
the final value minus the initial
value so it's nrt Ln V
V
final minus nrt
nrt
initial now if you recall from your
algebra class or pre-calculus
class the natural log of a minus the
natural log of B can be Rewritten as Ln
a / B so therefore
we can combine these two expressions as
a single log so the equation that we
need for this problem is
nrt natural
now let's finish this problem n is the
number of moles which is
7.5 R is the energy constant for gases
8.3145 T is the temperature 400
Kelvin and then this is going to be Ln V
final which is
22617
Jew and we can see why it's negative
because the gas is being compressed from
a high volume to a low volume so that's
how you can calculate the work for an isothermal
isothermal
process now what about the heat we know
that the internal energy the change and
the internal energy is zero but how can
we calculate the heat transferred during this
this process well one equation that you can
process well one equation that you can use is Delta U is equal to Q minus W if
use is Delta U is equal to Q minus W if we add W to both sides we can see that Q
we add W to both sides we can see that Q is Delta u+ W and since Delta U is zero
is Delta u+ W and since Delta U is zero Q is equal to W so Q is also 22,6
Q is equal to W so Q is also 22,6 17 that's how much heat is transferred
17 that's how much heat is transferred so basically let's understand what's
so basically let's understand what's happening in this
situation consider a cylinder with a movable
cylinder with a movable piston and let's say that we have a gas
inside now as work is being done on the gas to compress it so work is
gas to compress it so work is negative we can see that the volume is
negative we can see that the volume is decreasing the gas is releasing heat
decreasing the gas is releasing heat into the environment now this is
into the environment now this is occurring at such a rate that the
occurring at such a rate that the temperature remains
temperature remains constant so the energy that's going into
constant so the energy that's going into the system to compress the gas is
the system to compress the gas is leaving the system as
leaving the system as heat so 22,00 ,
heat so 22,00 , 66 Jew of
66 Jew of work goes into the system to compress
work goes into the system to compress the
gas so that action increases the internal energy by that amount however
internal energy by that amount however heat
heat leaves from the gas and about
leaves from the gas and about 22,616 Jew
22,616 Jew leave the
leave the gas at the same time so that decrease es
gas at the same time so that decrease es the internal energy so therefore the
the internal energy so therefore the change in internal energy is zero the
change in internal energy is zero the amount of energy that is being
amount of energy that is being transferred into the gas by means of the
transferred into the gas by means of the mechanical work is equal to the amount
mechanical work is equal to the amount of energy that leaves a gas um by means
of energy that leaves a gas um by means of heat so the gas gains no internal
of heat so the gas gains no internal energy the internal energy remains
energy the internal energy remains constant in this particular
problem 3.2 moles of an idal gas expands from a pressure of 5 ATM to 1.4 ATM at a
from a pressure of 5 ATM to 1.4 ATM at a constant temperature of
constant temperature of 127° is work done by the gas or on the
127° is work done by the gas or on the gas anytime a gas expands the work is
gas anytime a gas expands the work is positive and whenever the work is
positive and whenever the work is positive work is done by the gas on the
surroundings so now how can we calculate the work for this
the work for this problem once again the temperature is
problem once again the temperature is constant so we have an isothermal
constant so we have an isothermal process with a PV
process with a PV diagram that looks like
diagram that looks like this so this time we're traveling
this so this time we're traveling towards the right anytime you travel
towards the right anytime you travel towards the right of a PV diagram the
towards the right of a PV diagram the work done is
positive now this problem is slightly different from the last one because in
different from the last one because in the last problem we had two values for
the last problem we had two values for volume but here we have two values of
volume but here we have two values of pressure so what can we do in this
pressure so what can we do in this problem well let's start with this
problem well let's start with this equation W is equal to
equation W is equal to nrt natural
nrt natural log V final / V
log V final / V initial for an isothermal process since
initial for an isothermal process since temperature is constant whenever you
temperature is constant whenever you increase the volume the pressure will
increase the volume the pressure will decrease according to Bo's law P1 V1 is
decrease according to Bo's law P1 V1 is Al to P2 V2 so we could say p initial *
Al to P2 V2 so we could say p initial * V initial is equal to P final * V
V initial is equal to P final * V final now let's divide both sides by V
final now let's divide both sides by V initial and also by
initial and also by pfal if we do that notice what happens V
pfal if we do that notice what happens V initial cancels on the left side pfal
initial cancels on the left side pfal cancels on the right side so therefore P
cancels on the right side so therefore P initial / P
initial / P final is equal to V final / V initial so
final is equal to V final / V initial so we can replace V final over V initial
we can replace V final over V initial with P initial P
with P initial P final so therefore this is the equation
final so therefore this is the equation that you want to use for this
that you want to use for this problem so during an
problem so during an isothermal expansion or compression you
isothermal expansion or compression you can use this equation W is equal to
can use this equation W is equal to nrt
nrt Ln P initial / P final
so now let's finish the problem n in this problem is 3.2 moles R
problem n in this problem is 3.2 moles R is still
8.3145 now the temperature has to be in kelvin if you have any equation where
kelvin if you have any equation where you just see T like in pval nrt or this
you just see T like in pval nrt or this equation it has to be in
equation it has to be in kelvin but for equations where you would
kelvin but for equations where you would see the term delta T it can be in kelvin
see the term delta T it can be in kelvin or Celsius just keep that in
or Celsius just keep that in mind so to get the Kelvin temperature we
mind so to get the Kelvin temperature we need to add
need to add 273 to
127 which is about 400 Kelvin let's multiply that by the
Kelvin let's multiply that by the natural log of the initial pressure
natural log of the initial pressure which is 5 ATMs divided by the final
which is 5 ATMs divided by the final pressure of 1.4
pressure of 1.4 for so the work done should be
for so the work done should be positive and it's done by the
gas so the answer to this problem is positive
positive 13, 548
jewles now as you mentioned before for an iso thermal process Delta U is equal
an iso thermal process Delta U is equal to zero and Q is equal to
to zero and Q is equal to W so therefore the system absorbed
W so therefore the system absorbed 13548 jewles of heat energy and at the
13548 jewles of heat energy and at the same time it used that energy to perform
same time it used that energy to perform 13548 jewles of
13548 jewles of work so the energy that entered the
work so the energy that entered the system as heat left it by means of
system as heat left it by means of mechanical work
an ideal monoatomic gas expands from 2.5 L at 300 kin to 8 L at a constant
L at 300 kin to 8 L at a constant pressure of 3
pressure of 3 ATM what is the temperature when the
ATM what is the temperature when the volume is 8
l so let's draw a PB diagram now the first thing you want to do is identify
first thing you want to do is identify what type of process we have and it
what type of process we have and it turns out that this is an isobaric
turns out that this is an isobaric process since the pressure is constant
process since the pressure is constant the volume changes from 2.5
the volume changes from 2.5 L to 8
ATM so the work has to be positive since we're traveling towards the right
since we're traveling towards the right of the PV
of the PV diagram so we're going from position a
diagram so we're going from position a to position B at position a the
to position B at position a the temperature is 300
temperature is 300 Kelvin we need to calculate the
Kelvin we need to calculate the temperature at position
temperature at position B so how can we do
B so how can we do that
that well we can use this equation V1 / T1 is
well we can use this equation V1 / T1 is equal to V2 / T2 under constant pressure
equal to V2 / T2 under constant pressure conditions this is known as Charles's
conditions this is known as Charles's Law V1 is 2.5 liters T1 the temperature
Law V1 is 2.5 liters T1 the temperature that corresponds to it is 300 Kelvin so
that corresponds to it is 300 Kelvin so we want to find the new
we want to find the new temperature at a volume of 8 l so let's
temperature at a volume of 8 l so let's cross multiply 300 * 8
cross multiply 300 * 8 is400 and this is going to be equal to
is400 and this is going to be equal to 2.5 *
T2 so 2400 divided by 2.5 will give us a
2400 divided by 2.5 will give us a temperature of 960
K now what about Part B how many moles of gas are
present let's use the equation PV is equal to nrt
equal to nrt the pressure in this
the pressure in this problem is 3
problem is 3 ATM now we can use point a or point B
ATM now we can use point a or point B let's focus on point a at Point a the
let's focus on point a at Point a the volume is 2.5 L we're looking for
volume is 2.5 L we're looking for n r is going to be
8206 now the R value that you want to use in this equation is dependent on the
use in this equation is dependent on the units of p and v there's two R values
units of p and v there's two R values that you need to be aware
that you need to be aware of you've seen this one
of you've seen this one 8.3145 jewles per mole per
8.3145 jewles per mole per Kelvin if you're going to use this r
Kelvin if you're going to use this r value the pressure has to be in pascals
value the pressure has to be in pascals and the volume has to be in cubic meters
and the volume has to be in cubic meters because 1 Pascal * 1 Cub met is equal to
because 1 Pascal * 1 Cub met is equal to a
Jew now the other r value which is the one that we're
one that we're using
using 8206 it has the units liters time
8206 it has the units liters time ATM / moles time Kelvin and since the
ATM / moles time Kelvin and since the pressure is in ATM and the volume is in
pressure is in ATM and the volume is in liters this is the r value that we want
liters this is the r value that we want to use in this
to use in this equation T at Point a is 300
equation T at Point a is 300 Kelvin if you use the values at Point V
Kelvin if you use the values at Point V I mean not V but point B you should get
I mean not V but point B you should get the same answer so let's calculate n
the same answer so let's calculate n it's going to be 3 *
it's going to be 3 * 2.5 ID 300 and then take that result ID
2.5 ID 300 and then take that result ID 08
206 so you should get
get 304 66
moles now let's calculate the work performed by this
performed by this gas so we can use the equation W is
gas so we can use the equation W is equal to NR
equal to NR delta
delta T so we have n which
T so we have n which is
30466 now for R I'm going to use 8.3145 because I want my answer to be in
8.3145 because I want my answer to be in Jews and delta T the change in
Jews and delta T the change in temperature the final minus the initial
temperature the final minus the initial temperature that's 660
Kelvin so multiplying these three numbers
numbers will give
will give us a value of
us a value of 1672 jewles so that's how much work is
1672 jewles so that's how much work is performed by this
performed by this gas now keep in mind you can also
gas now keep in mind you can also use this
use this equation W is also equal to P Delta
equation W is also equal to P Delta V under constant pressure
V under constant pressure conditions so the pressure is three the
conditions so the pressure is three the change in volume the final minus the
change in volume the final minus the initial volume that's 8 minus
initial volume that's 8 minus 2.5 which is uh
2.5 which is uh 5.5 * 3 that's equal to
5.5 * 3 that's equal to 16.5 L time
16.5 L time ATM now you need to convert this to
ATM now you need to convert this to jewels so we need to multiply by
jewels so we need to multiply by 101.3 jewles per liter per
ATM and if you do that you should get approximately around 1671
approximately around 1671 jewles which is pretty close to this
jewles which is pretty close to this answer by the way keep in mind this
answer by the way keep in mind this answer is
rounded now how can we calculate the change in the internal
change in the internal energy of the
energy of the system to do that the equation that we
system to do that the equation that we need is Delta U is equal to n CV delta
need is Delta U is equal to n CV delta T this is true for any process so make
T this is true for any process so make sure you keep this equation in mind so n
sure you keep this equation in mind so n is still
30466 now we have a monoatomic gas so CV is 3 over2 * R that's 3 over2
gas so CV is 3 over2 * R that's 3 over2 * I mean time
8.3145 we want Delta U to be in Jews and the change in temperature is 6 60
kin so this gives us a value of 2500 and8 Jew so that's the change in
2500 and8 Jew so that's the change in the internal energy of the
system so now how can we answer Part D how much heat energy was
how much heat energy was transferred well there's different ways
transferred well there's different ways in which we can do
in which we can do that so first let's make some
space one equation that we can use is the equation that is associated
use is the equation that is associated with the first law of thermodynamics
with the first law of thermodynamics Delta U is equal to Q minus W therefore
Delta U is equal to Q minus W therefore Q is Delta u+
Q is Delta u+ W since we have those two values Delta
W since we have those two values Delta to U is
to U is 258 and W is
1672 so therefore the amount of heat transferred is about
transferred is about 4,180 Jews now this is not the only way
4,180 Jews now this is not the only way in which we can get this
in which we can get this answer we can also get it using other
answer we can also get it using other equations as well
equations as well you can use this equation Q is equal to
you can use this equation Q is equal to n CP delta
n CP delta T So n is still
so this will also give you 4,180 Jew rounded to the nearest whole
4,180 Jew rounded to the nearest whole number so that's how you can find Q if
number so that's how you can find Q if you have uh the change in internal
you have uh the change in internal energy and if you have the work or you
energy and if you have the work or you can also find it in terms of temperature
can also find it in terms of temperature or you can find it in terms of
or you can find it in terms of pressure and volume so let me give you a
pressure and volume so let me give you a third equation that might be useful if
third equation that might be useful if you don't have the
you don't have the temperature and it's uh Q is equal to P
temperature and it's uh Q is equal to P *
* CP Delta V / R by the way this equation
CP Delta V / R by the way this equation only applies
only applies to processes dealing with constant
to processes dealing with constant pressure that is isobaric
pressure that is isobaric processes and this equation also so
processes and this equation also so applies to isobaric
applies to isobaric processes so if you have that chart that
processes so if you have that chart that I gave you earlier it might be good to
I gave you earlier it might be good to expand that chart and add these
expand that chart and add these equations to the isobaric uh
row I couldn't fit all of the equations that I had on the screen so I'm going
that I had on the screen so I'm going over it
over it now so let's plug in the values that we
now so let's plug in the values that we have so P which is constant is 3 ATM
have so P which is constant is 3 ATM and
and CP that's going to be 5 over 2 *
R since we have a monoatomic gas at constant
constant pressure and Delta
pressure and Delta V is 8 L minus 2.5 so that's a change of
V is 8 L minus 2.5 so that's a change of positive
5.5 let me uh get rid of something first since this is in the
way now I really don't have to plug in the r value because as you can see R
the r value because as you can see R will
cancel so therefore it's going to be 3 * 2.5 which is 5 over 2 *
5.5 now this answer is in liters times ATM because pressure was in ATM and the
ATM because pressure was in ATM and the volume was in liters so we need to
volume was in liters so we need to convert
convert it so as of now you should get
41.25 lers time ATM so we need to multiply by 101.3
jewles and if you do that you should get about 4,179
as you can see these answers are very very close so that's how you can
very close so that's how you can calculate the heat
calculate the heat transferred in terms of pressure and
transferred in terms of pressure and volume instead of using
temperature so you have many different ways in which you can calculate q but
ways in which you can calculate q but now let's talk about how we can derive
now let's talk about how we can derive that
equation so it comes from this equation Q is equal to n CP delta T
Q is equal to n CP delta T now we know that PV is equal to nrt the
now we know that PV is equal to nrt the ideal gas law
ideal gas law equation and in this problem the
equation and in this problem the pressure is constant but the volume is
pressure is constant but the volume is not constant the volume changes so
not constant the volume changes so therefore we could say that P Delta V is
therefore we could say that P Delta V is equal to NR delta T since pressure is
equal to NR delta T since pressure is constant only volume and temperature is
constant only volume and temperature is changing so I added a triangle to only
changing so I added a triangle to only that portion of the
equation now we need to solve for delta T So P Delta V / NR is equal to delta T
T So P Delta V / NR is equal to delta T so now let's replace Delta t with this
so now let's replace Delta t with this value so Q is equal to n * CP * P Delta
value so Q is equal to n * CP * P Delta V /
V / NR so we can cancel n so therefore Q is
NR so we can cancel n so therefore Q is equal to P the pressure time CP the
equal to P the pressure time CP the molar heat capacity at constant pressure
molar heat capacity at constant pressure times the change in volume /
times the change in volume / R so keep in mind CP is equal to 5/2 R
R so keep in mind CP is equal to 5/2 R for a monoatomic gas for a diatomic gas
for a monoatomic gas for a diatomic gas it's 7 over2 R and if you have a gas
it's 7 over2 R and if you have a gas with three atoms it's going to be 9/ 2 R
with three atoms it's going to be 9/ 2 R approximately so you can use that
approximately so you can use that estimation if you don't have the exact
estimation if you don't have the exact value but if you can look up the value
value but if you can look up the value in your textbook for that particular gas
in your textbook for that particular gas molecule make sure you use that value
molecule make sure you use that value because it's more accurate
700 jewles of work was done on an igil gas in imp perfectly insulated
gas in imp perfectly insulated container how much heat energy was
container how much heat energy was transferred so
transferred so first is the work positive or is it
first is the work positive or is it negative since work is done on the gas
negative since work is done on the gas the work is negative 700 Jew Anytime
the work is negative 700 Jew Anytime work is done on a gas the gas under go
work is done on a gas the gas under go compress
ression now what type of process do we have is this an isobaric process
have is this an isobaric process isochoric adiabatic or
isochoric adiabatic or isothermal the key expression here is
isothermal the key expression here is the gas is contained in a perfectly
the gas is contained in a perfectly insulated
insulated container so if it has good insulation
container so if it has good insulation it's going to be difficult for heat to
it's going to be difficult for heat to flow into or out of the
flow into or out of the system so therefore for Q is equal to
system so therefore for Q is equal to zero if heat energy cannot flow into or
zero if heat energy cannot flow into or out of the system Q is zero which means
out of the system Q is zero which means that we have uh an adiabatic
process so the answer to part A is zero now what about Part
zero now what about Part B well Delta U is equal to Q minus W
B well Delta U is equal to Q minus W since Q is zero for an adiabatic process
since Q is zero for an adiabatic process Delta U is negative w
Delta U is negative w and W
and W is700 which means Delta U is equal to
is700 which means Delta U is equal to positive
700 so in an adiabatic process the work performed on a
process the work performed on a gas goes directly to change its Eternal
gas goes directly to change its Eternal energy so 700 jewles of work was done on
energy so 700 jewles of work was done on a gas as a result the internal energy
a gas as a result the internal energy went up by 700
went up by 700 Jew now will the temperature increase or
Jew now will the temperature increase or decrease well Delta U is proportional to
decrease well Delta U is proportional to delta
delta T so if Delta U is
T so if Delta U is positive delta T will be positive which
positive delta T will be positive which means that the temperature will
means that the temperature will increase so anytime you have an
increase so anytime you have an adiabatic compression the temperature
adiabatic compression the temperature will go up and during an adiabatic
will go up and during an adiabatic expansion the temperature will go down
so as we compressed the gas adiabatically the net effect was to
adiabatically the net effect was to increase its internal energy and
increase its internal energy and therefore the temperature went
up let's work on this one 3 moles of Neon gas expands adiabatically against a
Neon gas expands adiabatically against a piston and the temperature drops from
piston and the temperature drops from 800 Kelvin to 500 Kelvin what is the
800 Kelvin to 500 Kelvin what is the change in the internal energy of the
change in the internal energy of the system or of the gas
to find the change in the internal energy we can use this equation ncv
energy we can use this equation ncv delta T which applies to any
delta T which applies to any process so n is 3
process so n is 3 moles now neon is a monoatomic gas so CV
moles now neon is a monoatomic gas so CV is equal to 3 over2 * R so that's 3
is equal to 3 over2 * R so that's 3 over2
over2 *
8.3145 and delta T the change in temperature 500 minus 800 so it drops by
temperature 500 minus 800 so it drops by 300
300 kin so delta T is
Jews Part B the amount of heat transferred during any adiabatic process
transferred during any adiabatic process is always zero
is always zero so in this case Delta U is equal
so in this case Delta U is equal to W which means that W is equal to
to W which means that W is equal to negative Delta U and if Delta U is
negative Delta U and if Delta U is 11,225 that means the work done by the
11,225 that means the work done by the gas is positive
gas is positive 11,225
11,225 Jew anytime a gas expands the work done
Jew anytime a gas expands the work done by that gas is equal to a positive value
let's try this problem we have .5 moles of a datomic gas particularly nitrogen
of a datomic gas particularly nitrogen gas and it's placed inside a 5.0 rigid
gas and it's placed inside a 5.0 rigid container at a pressure of 2 ATM this
container at a pressure of 2 ATM this gas is heated until it reaches a
gas is heated until it reaches a pressure of 8 ATM so let's begin by
pressure of 8 ATM so let's begin by drawing a PV diagram
so the volume is 5.0 lit the initial pressure is two
lit the initial pressure is two atmospheres and it increases to eight
atmospheres notice that this is an isocoric process the volume is constant
isocoric process the volume is constant since the gas is contained in a fixed
since the gas is contained in a fixed rigid 5.0 lit
container for an isocoric process to work done by the gas is zero so no work
work done by the gas is zero so no work is done in this
is done in this process so how can we calculate how much
process so how can we calculate how much heat energy will be absorbed by the
gas particularly in terms of pressure and volume an equation that you can use
and volume an equation that you can use is this one Q is equal to V * CV * Delta
is this one Q is equal to V * CV * Delta P /
R the volume is 5 L CV is
L CV is 20.7 the change in
20.7 the change in pressure 8 minus 2 so that's an increase
pressure 8 minus 2 so that's an increase of 6 ATM and R is 8.3145
so this gives us a value of 74.9 but V has the units liters P has
74.9 but V has the units liters P has unit
unit ATM so we need to multiply this number
ATM so we need to multiply this number by
by 101.3 to convert it to
88w so that's how much heat energy is absorbed in the
absorbed in the process and we know that Delta U is Q
process and we know that Delta U is Q minus W and since W is zero Delta U is
minus W and since W is zero Delta U is equal to Q in this
problem so as a result Delta U is also 7,500 and
88 now we know that Delta U is always equal to this equation
is always equal to this equation ncv delta T so you can also find Q using
ncv delta T so you can also find Q using that
equation so n is 0.5 CV is 20.6 the only thing we're missing is
20.6 the only thing we're missing is delta
delta T which we can find that as we work on
T which we can find that as we work on Part B
this so what is the temperature when the pressure is 2 ATM
temperature when the pressure is 2 ATM and when the volume is
and when the volume is five so how can we find it well let's go
five so how can we find it well let's go back to the ideal gas law equation PV is
back to the ideal gas law equation PV is equal to
nrt so at point a the pressure is 2 atmospheres the volume is 5 l n
atmospheres the volume is 5 l n is5 r is
8206 and we could solve for T so it's going to be 2 * 5 which is 10 ID 0.5
going to be 2 * 5 which is 10 ID 0.5 which is 20 ID 8
which is 20 ID 8 206 so at Point a the temperature is
B this time the pressure is going to be eight instead of five I mean instead of
two so basically if the pressure is increased by a factor of
pressure is increased by a factor of four the temperature should be increased
four the temperature should be increased by a factor of four so if we multiply 2
by a factor of four so if we multiply 2 43.7 * 4 it should be about
9748 but that answer is round an answer because I the this
because I the this answer so let's use the equation 8 * 5 /
answer so let's use the equation 8 * 5 / .5 that's 80 ID
.5 that's 80 ID 8206 so that's
now we can find the heat transferred using the other
using the other equation so delta T is going to be the
equation so delta T is going to be the final temperature which is
final temperature which is 9749 Kelvin minus the initial
9749 Kelvin minus the initial temperature of 243.166
in this particular process is positive
process is positive 7,000
7,000 590 Jew which is very very close to the
590 Jew which is very very close to the other answer of
other answer of 7,588
7,588 Jew so as you can
Jew so as you can see you can find
see you can find Q if you have the change of temperature
Q if you have the change of temperature using this equation for a constant
using this equation for a constant volume process
volume process or if you have the volume and
or if you have the volume and pressure you can use this equation Q is
pressure you can use this equation Q is equal to V CV Delta P / R but now let's
equal to V CV Delta P / R but now let's talk about how we can derive that
talk about how we can derive that equation because it really comes from
equation because it really comes from this
this equation n CV Delta
equation n CV Delta C Now using the ideal gas law equation
C Now using the ideal gas law equation pval
pval nrt we need to replace Delta t with
nrt we need to replace Delta t with something now in this problem the volume
something now in this problem the volume is constant so the pressure is changing
is constant so the pressure is changing so Delta P * V is equal to NR delta T So
so Delta P * V is equal to NR delta T So solving for delta T it's Delta P * V
solving for delta T it's Delta P * V over
NR so let's replace Delta t with this value so it's
replace Delta t with this value so it's going to be n CV Delta P * V over NR
so Q is equal to the volume times the molar heat capacity
volume times the molar heat capacity measured at constant volume times the
measured at constant volume times the change in pressure / R so that's how you
change in pressure / R so that's how you can find Q if you have an isocoric
can find Q if you have an isocoric process and if you're given the volume
process and if you're given the volume and the two different pressure
and the two different pressure values if you have the change in
values if you have the change in temperature then it's easier to use this
temperature then it's easier to use this equation
and also keep in mind that Q is equal to Delta U for any isocor process since W
Delta U for any isocor process since W is equal to0 so make sure you write
is equal to0 so make sure you write these down um in your
these down um in your chart so you can organize all of the
chart so you can organize all of the equations you need for the different
equations you need for the different types of processes that you'll see on
types of processes that you'll see on your
exam an ideal monoatomic gas is compressed from 12 L to 3 l at a
compressed from 12 L to 3 l at a constant pressure of 2.58
constant pressure of 2.58 heat is added to increase the pressure
heat is added to increase the pressure at constant volume until the temperature
at constant volume until the temperature reaches its original value calculate the
reaches its original value calculate the total work done by the gas and the total
total work done by the gas and the total heat flow into the gas and also draw a
heat flow into the gas and also draw a PV diagram so let's do that
first so we're starting at high volume a volume of 12
volume of 12 L and the volume is decreased into 3 l
L and the volume is decreased into 3 l at a pressure of 2.5
ATM so we're going this way let's call this position a position
way let's call this position a position B so that's an isobaric
B so that's an isobaric process now heat is added if heat is
process now heat is added if heat is added the temperature will increase and
added the temperature will increase and the pressure will increase as as well
the pressure will increase as as well and this occurs at constant volume so
and this occurs at constant volume so that's an isocoric process so we need to
that's an isocoric process so we need to go up in the PV
diagram and then the temperature will reach its original
reach its original value calculate the total work done by
value calculate the total work done by the gas and the total heat flow into the
the gas and the total heat flow into the gas let's call this position
C so what can we do in this problem how can we figure out the
answer well we need to calculate the
well we need to calculate the work done as we travel from position a
work done as we travel from position a to position C so let's find it from A to
to position C so let's find it from A to B so that's an isobaric process so we
B so that's an isobaric process so we can use the equation P Delta
can use the equation P Delta V the pressure is 2.5
V the pressure is 2.5 ATM and the change in volume the final
ATM and the change in volume the final minus initial that's 3 - 12 and then we
minus initial that's 3 - 12 and then we need to multiply it by
need to multiply it by 101.3 to convert it to
101.3 to convert it to Jews so this is 2.5 * 9 *
101.3 so the work done from A to B is 2279
2279 JW now what about the work done from B
JW now what about the work done from B to C from B to C that's an isocoric
to C from B to C that's an isocoric process volume is constant and the work
process volume is constant and the work is always zero therefore the work done
is always zero therefore the work done from a to
from a to c is the sum total of these two values
c is the sum total of these two values which is just - 2279
Jew now what about going from a to c notice that this is an isothermal
notice that this is an isothermal path the key expression is the
path the key expression is the temperature the temperature remains at
temperature the temperature remains at the same
the same value it reaches its original value so
value it reaches its original value so whatever the temperature was at Point a
whatever the temperature was at Point a is the same as Point C and for an
is the same as Point C and for an isothermal uh graph or process Delta U
isothermal uh graph or process Delta U is equal to
is equal to zero so from a to c the fact that Delta
zero so from a to c the fact that Delta U is equal to zero which means
U is equal to zero which means that Q is equal to
that Q is equal to w q is w+
w q is w+ Delta
Delta u based on this equation if you
u based on this equation if you rearrange it so if Delta U is z q is
rearrange it so if Delta U is z q is equal to W which is -
equal to W which is - 2279 now let's see if there's another
2279 now let's see if there's another way we can get the same answer by
way we can get the same answer by calculating Q through the individual
calculating Q through the individual paths so we need to get -
paths so we need to get - 2279 uh during this other technique or
2279 uh during this other technique or other method
so first let's assign the temperature value to point
value to point a let's say the temperature is 1,000
a let's say the temperature is 1,000 Kelvin now notice the volume decreased
Kelvin now notice the volume decreased from 12 to 3 l whenever the volume
from 12 to 3 l whenever the volume decreases the temperature decreases as
decreases the temperature decreases as well if the pressure is held constant
well if the pressure is held constant the volume decreases by a factor of
the volume decreases by a factor of four if you divide 12 by 4 you should
four if you divide 12 by 4 you should get three likewise if we divide 1,000
get three likewise if we divide 1,000 Kelvin by 4 it should give us a
Kelvin by 4 it should give us a temperature of 250
temperature of 250 Kelvin so that's going to be the
Kelvin so that's going to be the relative temperature at point B if point
relative temperature at point B if point a is 1,000 Kelvin now at Point C the
a is 1,000 Kelvin now at Point C the temperature is 1,000 Kelvin because it's
temperature is 1,000 Kelvin because it's back to its original value but going
back to its original value but going from B to C the temperature increases by
from B to C the temperature increases by factor four which means the pressure
factor four which means the pressure must increase by factor four at constant
must increase by factor four at constant volume if you raise the temperature the
volume if you raise the temperature the pressure will
pressure will increase so 2.5 * 4 is 10
ATM now how can we calculate Q in the isobaric process from A to B there's two
isobaric process from A to B there's two equations that you can use you can use
equations that you can use you can use this one Q is equal to n CP * delta T
this one Q is equal to n CP * delta T during a constant uh pressure or an
during a constant uh pressure or an isobaric
isobaric process or we can use the other equation
process or we can use the other equation Q is equal
to P CP Delta V /
CP Delta V / R ideally we want to use this equation
R ideally we want to use this equation because we have the pressure and the
because we have the pressure and the change in volume we don't have the moles
change in volume we don't have the moles we do have the temperature but if we are
we do have the temperature but if we are going to use the first one we need to
going to use the first one we need to find n which we could do using equation
find n which we could do using equation PV equals nrt we could find it at any
PV equals nrt we could find it at any points uh point a b or
points uh point a b or c but we don't have to do that so let's
c but we don't have to do that so let's use this
equation so Q is going to equal p which is
is 2.58m time
2.58m time CP and this is a monoatomic
CP and this is a monoatomic gas so
gas so therefore CP is going to be 5 over 2 * R
therefore CP is going to be 5 over 2 * R CV is 3 over2 * r
CV is 3 over2 * r Delta V the change in volume final minus
Delta V the change in volume final minus initial is 3 - 12 and then divid
R and don't forget you need to multiply this value by 101.3 to convert it to
this value by 101.3 to convert it to Jews so it's 2.5 * 5 / 2 *
Jews so it's 2.5 * 5 / 2 * 9 you should get
9 you should get 56.25 and then multiply that by
101.3 so Q from A to B is equal to 5,698
5,698 Jew now what about from B to C how can
Jew now what about from B to C how can we calculate
Q so from B to C you can use this equation Q is equal to n CV Delta C
equation Q is equal to n CV Delta C since the volume is solid constant or we
since the volume is solid constant or we can use this equation V
can use this equation V CV Delta
CV Delta P /
P / R let's go ahead and use that
R let's go ahead and use that one so
one so V is 3
V is 3 l from position B to C it's a constant 3
l from position B to C it's a constant 3 l and CV that's 3/ 2 * R and Delta P the
l and CV that's 3/ 2 * R and Delta P the change in pressure final minus the
change in pressure final minus the initial value 10 - 2.5 that's a change
initial value 10 - 2.5 that's a change of
of 7.5 /
7.5 / R and then multiplied
R and then multiplied by
by 101.3 to convert it back to
101.3 to convert it back to jewels so it's 3 * 3 / 2 *
jewels so it's 3 * 3 / 2 * 7.5 that's
7.5 that's 33.75 *
33.75 * 101.3 so this is equal to 3,400
18.9 now to calculate the total heat which we said was - 2279 Jew we could
which we said was - 2279 Jew we could simply add the heat absorbed or released
simply add the heat absorbed or released by processes A to B and B to
by processes A to B and B to C so if we take
C so if we take 5,698 and add it to 341
5,698 and add it to 341 18.9 this will give you -22 79
18.9 this will give you -22 79 Jew which is the same answer that we had
Jew which is the same answer that we had before but now you know how to
before but now you know how to calculate the heat energy absorbed or
calculate the heat energy absorbed or released during an isobaric process and
released during an isobaric process and an isocoric
process how much work is performed by the gas as the system moves in a cyclic
the gas as the system moves in a cyclic path A to B to C to D to
path A to B to C to D to a well a simple way to find the work is
a well a simple way to find the work is to calculate the
to calculate the area that is the area of the Shaded
area that is the area of the Shaded region so we have the shape of a
region so we have the shape of a rectangle and the area is simply the
rectangle and the area is simply the length times the width the length of the
length times the width the length of the rectangle as you can see is the change
rectangle as you can see is the change in
in pressure and the width of the
pressure and the width of the rectangle is the change in volume the
rectangle is the change in volume the change in pressure is the difference
change in pressure is the difference between 1 and 8 atmospheres so that's
between 1 and 8 atmospheres so that's seven and the change in volume 6 - 2 so
seven and the change in volume 6 - 2 so that's
that's 4 and we need to convert it to Jews so
4 and we need to convert it to Jews so we're going to multiplied by 101.3 Jew
we're going to multiplied by 101.3 Jew per liter per
atmosphere so the work perform is 2,8 36.4 Jew
2,8 36.4 Jew now this answer is it positive or is it
now this answer is it positive or is it negative what would you
negative what would you say it turns out that if you're
say it turns out that if you're traveling in the clockwise
traveling in the clockwise Direction the work done is
Direction the work done is positive now if you travel in let's say
positive now if you travel in let's say the counterclockwise
the counterclockwise Direction the work done is going to be
Direction the work done is going to be negative now let's prove
negative now let's prove that first we need to prove this answer
to do that let's calculate the work perform in each step so let's start with
perform in each step so let's start with the first step that is from A to
B so that's an isobaric process so we can use the equation work is equal to P
can use the equation work is equal to P Delta
Delta V and anytime you go to the right the
V and anytime you go to the right the work done is positive so the pressure is
work done is positive so the pressure is 8 the final volume is 6us 2 so that's uh
8 the final volume is 6us 2 so that's uh 8 * 4 which is 32 *
8 * 4 which is 32 * 101.3 so the work done from A to B is
101.3 so the work done from A to B is positive
positive 3,2
41.6 now the work done going from B to C that's an isocoric process and as a
that's an isocoric process and as a result the work is
zero so from B to C and D to a the work is
is zero so now we need to calculate the
zero so now we need to calculate the work going from C to
D so the pressure is now One D is the final position C is the
One D is the final position C is the initial position so it's going to be 2 -
initial position so it's going to be 2 - 6 so that's -4 *
6 so that's -4 * 101.3 and that's equal to -
101.3 and that's equal to - 45.2 Jew
45.2 Jew so if we add these two
so if we add these two values 32
values 32 41.6 + -
45.2 this is going to be equal to 28 36.4 and if you go in the reverse
36.4 and if you go in the reverse Direction the numbers will be reversed
Direction the numbers will be reversed instead of this value being 2 - 6 it's
instead of this value being 2 - 6 it's going to be 6 - 2 so this is going to be
going to be 6 - 2 so this is going to be positive 405 and this will be - 32 41.6
positive 405 and this will be - 32 41.6 you can try but going in the
you can try but going in the counterclockwise Direction the work will
counterclockwise Direction the work will be negative 28 36.4 that's the answer to
be negative 28 36.4 that's the answer to the second part of the problem but for
the second part of the problem but for the first part of the problem traveling
the first part of the problem traveling in the clockwise Direction the work done
in the clockwise Direction the work done is
positive now if you want to understand why that's the case keep in mind anytime
why that's the case keep in mind anytime you travel towards the right the work is
you travel towards the right the work is positive and if you travel towards the
positive and if you travel towards the left in the PV diagram the work is
left in the PV diagram the work is negative as you travel towards the right
negative as you travel towards the right notice that the pressure is higher and
notice that the pressure is higher and therefore the work done by the gas is
therefore the work done by the gas is going to be higher as you travel towards
going to be higher as you travel towards the left the pressure is lower it's one
the left the pressure is lower it's one and so the negative work performed by
and so the negative work performed by the gas is going to be lower so the net
the gas is going to be lower so the net work done is
work done is positive because the higher side is
positive because the higher side is moving towards the
moving towards the right if you mooving towards the
right if you mooving towards the left at the higher pressure then the
left at the higher pressure then the overall work is going to be negative the
overall work is going to be negative the work is determined by the direction
work is determined by the direction of the system at high pressure because
of the system at high pressure because at high pressure that's where most of
at high pressure that's where most of the work will be
accomplished go ahead take a minute pause the video try this problem and
pause the video try this problem and then unpause it when you want to see the
then unpause it when you want to see the solution so let's begin by drawing a PV
diagram now the volume of a gas increases from 3 l to 9 L
and it occurs at a constant pressure of 4 ATM which is lower than
10 so we're traveling in this direction let's call this position a and position
b or state a and state B next heat is added to increase the
B next heat is added to increase the pressure to 10 ATM
so that's an isocore process finally heat is removed to
process finally heat is removed to decrease the pressure and volume back to
decrease the pressure and volume back to its original
its original values that is at three and
values that is at three and four and it's going to travel back to
four and it's going to travel back to the original um state in a straight line
the original um state in a straight line path so calculate the total work done in
path so calculate the total work done in this process
this process to find the answer we got to calculate
to find the answer we got to calculate the area under the
curve and this is the area of a triangle so it's going to be 1 12 base time
so it's going to be 1 12 base time height the base of the triangle is the
height the base of the triangle is the change in
change in volume and the height of the triangle is
volume and the height of the triangle is the change in pressure
so the change in volume is going to be equal to 6 L and the change in
equal to 6 L and the change in pressure is 10- 4 so that's a difference
pressure is 10- 4 so that's a difference of
of six * 101.3 to convert it to
six * 101.3 to convert it to Jews so 6 * 6 is 36 half of that is
Jews so 6 * 6 is 36 half of that is 18 so the work done is going to be
18 so the work done is going to be 1,823 point4 jewles now here's a
1,823 point4 jewles now here's a question for you is the work done
question for you is the work done positive or negative
so notice the direction that we're traveling in that is the system is
traveling in that is the system is rotating in
rotating in the counterclockwise Direction which
the counterclockwise Direction which means that work in this process is
means that work in this process is negative if it's moving in a cyclic
negative if it's moving in a cyclic clockwise Direction the work should be
clockwise Direction the work should be positive but now let's see if we can get
positive but now let's see if we can get this
this answer by calculating the work done in
answer by calculating the work done in each individual
step so let's start from A to B that's an isobaric process so we can use the
an isobaric process so we can use the equation P Delta
equation P Delta V the pressure is four at this point the
V the pressure is four at this point the change in volume final minus initial 9 -
change in volume final minus initial 9 - 3 that's 6 *
101.3 so 24 * 101.3 gives us a value of 2431
101.3 gives us a value of 2431 .2 and the work done is
.2 and the work done is positive now between B and C that's an
positive now between B and C that's an isocor
isocor process so the work done for that region
process so the work done for that region is zero let's see if I can fit it
is zero let's see if I can fit it here now what about in this section
here now what about in this section going from C to a how much work is
going from C to a how much work is performed by the gas and taking that
performed by the gas and taking that route it turns out that you can use this
route it turns out that you can use this equation to get the answer but you have
equation to get the answer but you have to use it in a certain way notice that
to use it in a certain way notice that the pressure is not constant it changes
the pressure is not constant it changes from 10 to 4 so what value of P should
from 10 to 4 so what value of P should you plug in to this equation to make it
you plug in to this equation to make it work it turns out that if the pressure
work it turns out that if the pressure increases at a constant linear rate you
increases at a constant linear rate you can use the average
can use the average pressure so the
pressure so the equation for the path to to calculate
equation for the path to to calculate the work from C to a it's going to be
the work from C to a it's going to be 12 P initial plus P final * Delta V to
12 P initial plus P final * Delta V to find the average of these two numbers
find the average of these two numbers you need to add them up and divide by
you need to add them up and divide by two so the average pressure is the
two so the average pressure is the initial and the final pressure is the
initial and the final pressure is the sum of the two values ID two or half of
sum of the two values ID two or half of the
the sum so using that equation 10 + 4 is 14
sum so using that equation 10 + 4 is 14 half of that is seven so the work is
half of that is seven so the work is going to be the average pressure of
going to be the average pressure of seven time the change in
seven time the change in volume final minus initial so 3 - 9
volume final minus initial so 3 - 9 which is -6 *
which is -6 * 101.3 so -42 *
101.3 so -42 * 101.3 gives us a value of
101.3 gives us a value of negative
42546 now the reason why it's negative is because we're traveling towards the
is because we're traveling towards the left of the PV diagram here it's
left of the PV diagram here it's positive because we're going towards the
positive because we're going towards the right of the PV
right of the PV diagram now in terms of the magnitude of
diagram now in terms of the magnitude of these two values the one at the top is
these two values the one at the top is greater because the average pressure is
greater because the average pressure is higher than the pressure at the bottom
higher than the pressure at the bottom which is
which is four so keep in mind the direction of
four so keep in mind the direction of the system at high pressure determines
the system at high pressure determines the overall sign of the work done for
the overall sign of the work done for this entire cyclic process that's why
this entire cyclic process that's why the overall work done is
the overall work done is negative because at the top is moving
negative because at the top is moving towards
towards left now let's add these two values so
left now let's add these two values so -42 54.6 + 24
-42 54.6 + 24 31.2 gives you this answer 8
23.4 which of the following is not a state
state function pressure internal energy work
function pressure internal energy work temperature volume which one
it turns out that work is not a state function pressure internal energy
function pressure internal energy everything else is a state
everything else is a state function let's say if we have a PB
diagram and let's say we have three points point A B and
C the work that's required to go from a to c by means of B it's going to be
to c by means of B it's going to be different than the work required to go
different than the work required to go from a to c it's not going to be the
from a to c it's not going to be the same let's say a to c is an isothermal
same let's say a to c is an isothermal path however the change in internal
path however the change in internal energy going from ABC or AC
energy going from ABC or AC directly is going to be the
directly is going to be the same it may not be zero but it's going
same it may not be zero but it's going to be the same
the change in internal energy does not depend on the path it depends on the
depend on the path it depends on the state as long as you go from a to c
state as long as you go from a to c regardless if you pass through this path
regardless if you pass through this path or this path the change in internal
or this path the change in internal energy is the same which means it's a
energy is the same which means it's a state function the work will not be the
state function the work will not be the same the work depends on the path that
same the work depends on the path that you take if you go from a to c by taking
you take if you go from a to c by taking this route the work is different than if
this route the work is different than if you take this route because the area on
you take this route because the area on the curve is different also heat is not
the curve is different also heat is not a state
a state function now pressure temperature and
function now pressure temperature and volume they will be the same regardless
volume they will be the same regardless of the path
taken if I take the path A to B to C the pressure at C will still be the same
pressure at C will still be the same let's say it's two
atmospheres if I go from a to c at C the pressure would still be two
pressure would still be two atmospheres so as you can see the
atmospheres so as you can see the pressure is a state function it depends
pressure is a state function it depends on the initial and final States just
on the initial and final States just like internal energy it doesn't depend
like internal energy it doesn't depend on the path taken whereas work and heat
on the path taken whereas work and heat which are forms of energy transfer they
which are forms of energy transfer they depend on the path taken and so work and
depend on the path taken and so work and heat are not State functions
let's try this problem so let's focus on path a to d to
problem so let's focus on path a to d to C which is this
C which is this path and we're given the amount of heat
path and we're given the amount of heat that flows into the
system so because heat is absorbed by the system Q is
the system Q is positive and we're told that 45 Jew of
positive and we're told that 45 Jew of work is done by the system whenever the
work is done by the system whenever the system does work or performs
system does work or performs work the work done is
BC the work performed by the gas is 30
Jew how much heat energy is absorbed in path
path ABC to answer this question it's
ABC to answer this question it's important to realize
important to realize that internal energy is a state function
that internal energy is a state function the change in the internal energy and
the change in the internal energy and going from ABC or ADC is the
going from ABC or ADC is the same so if we could find Delta U for
same so if we could find Delta U for this path we can use it to find Q in
this path we can use it to find Q in path
ABC Delta U is equal to Q - W so that's 125 - 45
125 - 45 which is
which is 80 so we can use this value for path
80 so we can use this value for path ABC solving for Q Q is Delta U plus W so
ABC solving for Q Q is Delta U plus W so that's 30 +
that's 30 + 80 so 110 Jew of heat
80 so 110 Jew of heat energy was absorbed in path
ABC now what about the next part when a system returns from C to a
part when a system returns from C to a along the Curve Earth path that's the
along the Curve Earth path that's the path in the
path in the middle 38 Jew of energy is transferred
middle 38 Jew of energy is transferred by
work now this energy transfer is it positive or is it
negative anytime a gas is compressed or if you travel towards the left of a PV
if you travel towards the left of a PV diagram the work done is negative as you
diagram the work done is negative as you travel towards the right the work done
travel towards the right the work done will be positive so this is4
5 now in order to find q that is the amount of heat energy
q that is the amount of heat energy transferred during this process we need
transferred during this process we need to find Delta
to find Delta U so how can we do
U so how can we do it well we know that going from A to B
it well we know that going from A to B to C Delta U is positive
to C Delta U is positive 80 going back from C to B to a it's
80 going back from C to B to a it's going to be negative 80 because the
going to be negative 80 because the internal energy is a state function it
internal energy is a state function it really doesn't matter the path that you
really doesn't matter the path that you take take as long as you get from a to c
take take as long as you get from a to c it's POS 80 so going back to C to a it's
it's POS 80 so going back to C to a it's 80 it's also 80 if we take the curve
80 it's also 80 if we take the curve path the change in the internal energy
path the change in the internal energy of a system is independent of the path
of a system is independent of the path taken so Delta U going from C to a is
taken so Delta U going from C to a is going to be 80 instead of positive 80 so
going to be 80 instead of positive 80 so now we could find Q which is Delta U + W
now we could find Q which is Delta U + W so that's
so that's uh80 Plus
45 actually that's not supposed to be 45 it's supposed to be
45 it's supposed to be 38 I guess I was looking at this number
38 I guess I was looking at this number but going from C to a 38 Jews of energy
but going from C to a 38 Jews of energy is transferred by work so this is
38 so if we add these two numbers this is going to be
-118 so that's how much heat energy is transferred
transferred now because Q is negative that means
now because Q is negative that means that heat was released during this
that heat was released during this process as a system went from C to
process as a system went from C to a now what about the next part if UA is
a now what about the next part if UA is equal to Z and U is equal to 20 how much
equal to Z and U is equal to 20 how much heat energy is absorbed in paths ab and
BC well first let's find the internal energy at path c as you mentioned before
energy at path c as you mentioned before going going from A to B to C the change
going going from A to B to C the change in the internal energy is 80 so if a is
in the internal energy is 80 so if a is zero C is 80 Jew higher than a so at C
zero C is 80 Jew higher than a so at C the internal energy is
the internal energy is 80 so with that information we can
80 so with that information we can calculate
calculate Q now the work done for any isocoric
Q now the work done for any isocoric process which is B to C or a to d is
process which is B to C or a to d is zero so let's uh make some space
so w is equal to zero and it's equal to zero on this side
zero and it's equal to zero on this side as
well now the work going from ad DC is
45 so that's here to here so if a to D is already
is already Zero D to C must be 45
5 the work done from a to d plus the work done from D to C is equal to work
work done from D to C is equal to work done from a to d to C so this is zero
done from a to d to C so this is zero this is
this is 45 this other value must be
45 now what about the work done from A to
to B we know the work done from A to B plus
B we know the work done from A to B plus that for B to C is equal to work done
that for B to C is equal to work done for A to B to C now this is zero so
for A to B to C now this is zero so these two must be equal to each other so
therefore the work done from A to B is 30 so now that we have these
values we can calculate Q so focusing on path
Q so focusing on path a q is equal to Delta u+ w
a q is equal to Delta u+ w Delta U is the difference between these
Delta U is the difference between these two values UA is zero U is 20 so the
two values UA is zero U is 20 so the change going from a 2B is positive 20
change going from a 2B is positive 20 going from B to a must be negative - 20
going from B to a must be negative - 20 and W is 30 so that means Q
and W is 30 so that means Q AB is equal to postive 50
Jew now what about from or path B to C and path B to C W is zero but going from
and path B to C W is zero but going from B to C the change in the internal
B to C the change in the internal energy is positive 60 it changes from 20
energy is positive 60 it changes from 20 to 80 so final minus initial 80us 20 is
to 80 so final minus initial 80us 20 is 60 so Q is 60 therefore
60 so Q is 60 therefore QBC is equal to positive
qabc which is 50 + 60 which is 110 and as we can see these two are equal to
as we can see these two are equal to each
other now what about the last part of the
problem if UD is equal to 30 how much heat is transferred in paths a and
heat is transferred in paths a and DC so let's put 30
DC so let's put 30 here now let's focus on
here now let's focus on ad so Q is Delta U + w
ad so Q is Delta U + w so if we add Z Plus the change which is
so if we add Z Plus the change which is 30 we can see that q a
30 we can see that q a d is equal to POS
30 now what about Q
Q DC what's the answer for
DC what's the answer for that well notice that the change in the
that well notice that the change in the internal energy going from D to C it
internal energy going from D to C it increases by 50 80 minus 30 is 50
and the work done going from D to C is positive
positive 45 so Q is Delta u+ W so 50 + 45 that's
45 so Q is Delta u+ W so 50 + 45 that's equal to positive
95 now if we add 30 and 95 it should give us the total of 125 which it does
give us the total of 125 which it does so everything is balanced so to speak
so everything is balanced so to speak the PV diagram shown below applies to
the PV diagram shown below applies to 2.1 moles of an ideal diatomic gas
2.1 moles of an ideal diatomic gas calculate the temperature at all
points now we need to use the equation PV is equal to nrt at least for the
PV is equal to nrt at least for the first point and then we can easily find
first point and then we can easily find the other points now notice that the
the other points now notice that the volume is in cubic met 1 Cub met is
volume is in cubic met 1 Cub met is equal to 1,000
equal to 1,000 l so to convert these values into lers
l so to convert these values into lers multiply by th000 so this is basically
multiply by th000 so this is basically 10 L and this is equivalent to 50
L now let's calculate the temperature at Point a since that temperature is going
Point a since that temperature is going to be the lowest temperature the
to be the lowest temperature the temperature increases whenever you move
temperature increases whenever you move in this general
in this general direction the temperature increases as
direction the temperature increases as you go towards the right in the P
you go towards the right in the P diagram and it increases as you go up
diagram and it increases as you go up in a PV
in a PV diagram so using this equation at Point
diagram so using this equation at Point a the pressure is five atmospheres the
a the pressure is five atmospheres the volume is 10 L we have uh 2.1 moles R is
volume is 10 L we have uh 2.1 moles R is 8206 and we're looking for
8206 and we're looking for T So 5 * 10 is 50 / 2.1 and then take
T So 5 * 10 is 50 / 2.1 and then take that result divided by
that result divided by 8206 so the temperature at Point
8206 so the temperature at Point a is 290
Kelvin now what about the temperature at Point D notice that the volume increases
Point D notice that the volume increases from 10 L to 50
from 10 L to 50 L if you increase the temperature at
L if you increase the temperature at constant pressure the volume will
constant pressure the volume will increase proportionally so the volume
increase proportionally so the volume increased by a factor of five which
increased by a factor of five which means the temperature should also
means the temperature should also increase by a factor of 5 290 * 5 is
increase by a factor of 5 290 * 5 is equal to 1450 Kelvin now if you want to
equal to 1450 Kelvin now if you want to you can use the PV equals nrt equation
you can use the PV equals nrt equation to get that
to get that answer if you plug in a pressure of 5 a
answer if you plug in a pressure of 5 a volume of
volume of 50 and 2.1 for n and the same r
value 5 * 50 is 250 ID 2.1 that's 19 19 divide that by
2.1 that's 19 19 divide that by 8206 and you get about 1450
Kelvin now it's really close to 1451 it's
it's 14
14 .7 because this answer was
rounded so I'm going to leave it as 1450 I'm going to round it to a nice whole
I'm going to round it to a nice whole number
so this answer is an estimate so to speak now what about the temperature at
speak now what about the temperature at point
point B notice that the pressure increases
B notice that the pressure increases from 5 to 40 going from A to B so 40 / 5
from 5 to 40 going from A to B so 40 / 5 is 8 so the pressure increases by a
is 8 so the pressure increases by a factor of eight at constant volume if
factor of eight at constant volume if you increase the temperature the
you increase the temperature the pressure will increase proportionately
pressure will increase proportionately that means that we have to increase this
that means that we have to increase this value by factor of a two 90 *
value by factor of a two 90 * 8 is equal to 2320
Kelvin now going from D to C the pressure increases by a factor of eight
pressure increases by a factor of eight so we can multiply 1450 by 8 and that
so we can multiply 1450 by 8 and that will give us 11,600 Kelvin or we can go
will give us 11,600 Kelvin or we can go from uh B to C where the volume
from uh B to C where the volume increases by a factor of
11600 so now what about Part B how can we calculate the heat transferred and
we calculate the heat transferred and paths AB b c c d and
paths AB b c c d and da well let's start with
da well let's start with AB there's many different equations that
AB there's many different equations that we can use but the first thing that we
we can use but the first thing that we need to realize is this is an isocoric
need to realize is this is an isocoric process the volume is constant so we can
process the volume is constant so we can use this equation n CV delta
use this equation n CV delta T So n is
T So n is 2.1 CV for an ideal datomic gas is 5/2 *
R and the change in temperature going from A to B it's a
temperature going from A to B it's a final minus
final minus initial so that's 2320
initial so that's 2320 -
290 so this is going to be about
be about 88,500 round into three6
fix now what about Q BC here we have an isobaric
BC here we have an isobaric process so we can use the equation n CP
process so we can use the equation n CP delta
T now the CP value for a diatomic gas is going to be 7 /2 *
R and going from B to C the final temperature is
temperature is 11,600 minus the initial temperature of
2320 so this is going to be about
about 567,000
so let me take a minute and just clear away a few things
in the meantime go ahead and calculate the other two Q
CD this time let's use a different equation we have another isocoric
equation we have another isocoric process but instead of using the ncv
process but instead of using the ncv delta T
delta T equation let's
equation let's use V CV Delta P /
use V CV Delta P / R the volume is 50
R the volume is 50 L CV for datomic gas is 52 *
L CV for datomic gas is 52 * R the change in
R the change in pressure is -35
and we can cancel R and let's not forget to multiply by
101.3 so this is going to be negative
negative 443,000
fix now what about the last part Q
part Q da so going from D to a how can we
da so going from D to a how can we calculate it so let's use this equation
calculate it so let's use this equation since we have a isobaric process the
since we have a isobaric process the pressure is constant so let's use the
pressure is constant so let's use the equation P
equation P CP Delta V /
CP Delta V / R so the pressure is 5 ATM CP is 7/2 * R
R so the pressure is 5 ATM CP is 7/2 * R and the change in volume final minus
and the change in volume final minus initial 10 - 50 is
initial 10 - 50 is -40 so we can cancel
R so as you can see whenever you go up and to the right Q is
and to the right Q is positive when you go down and towards
positive when you go down and towards the left Q is
negative and you can tell by the change in
in temperature to increase the temperature
temperature to increase the temperature typically you have to put heat into the
typically you have to put heat into the system and to decrease the temperature
system and to decrease the temperature from 11,000 to
from 11,000 to 1450 you have to remove heat from the
system so now let's calculate this value so five * 3.5 * -4 *
so five * 3.5 * -4 * 101.3 this is about - 70,000 and 900
Jew so now that we have the Q values for each
each step let's calculate the net Q value for
step let's calculate the net Q value for the cyclic process so as we travel from
the cyclic process so as we travel from position A to B B to C C to d d to a
position A to B B to C C to d d to a let's find the net amount of heat energy
let's find the net amount of heat energy absorbed or released into the
system so we just got to add these four values
values 88600 + 567,000 - 443,000
88600 + 567,000 - 443,000 -
- 7,900 this is equal to
7,900 this is equal to positive
141,000 now what is the work done in a cyclic process we know the work done is
cyclic process we know the work done is equal to the area of the Shaded
equal to the area of the Shaded region and since we have a rectangle
region and since we have a rectangle it's basically the length times the
it's basically the length times the width the length is basically the change
width the length is basically the change in pressure the width is the change in
in pressure the width is the change in volume the change in pressure is
volume the change in pressure is 35 if you subtract 40 minus 5 and the
35 if you subtract 40 minus 5 and the change in volume 50 l - 10 L that's 40
change in volume 50 l - 10 L that's 40 L multiplied 101.3 to converted to
jewels and this will give you about
about 141,000
141,000 820 but let's round these values to
820 but let's round these values to approximately
approximately 142,000 it's about the same if we keep
142,000 it's about the same if we keep it to three
it to three sigfigs as we've been doing for each of
sigfigs as we've been doing for each of these
problems now BAS on rounding errors there's going to be some slight
there's going to be some slight differences but theoretically these two
differences but theoretically these two should be
should be equal which they
equal which they are now let's think about what this
are now let's think about what this means we see that q and W are the
means we see that q and W are the same the question is
same the question is why now we started at position a we went
why now we started at position a we went all around the rectangle and we ended
all around the rectangle and we ended back at position a so going from a to
back at position a so going from a to a the internal energy is is the same
a the internal energy is is the same there's no change therefore Delta U is
there's no change therefore Delta U is equal to zero for any cyclic
equal to zero for any cyclic process and if Delta U is equal to zero
process and if Delta U is equal to zero and we know that Q is Delta u+ W
and we know that Q is Delta u+ W therefore Q is equal to a W for any
therefore Q is equal to a W for any cyclic
cyclic process and that's why we can see
process and that's why we can see they're the
they're the same the area is not only equal to the
same the area is not only equal to the work done but also it's equal to Q
work done but also it's equal to Q because it's a cyclic process
because it's a cyclic process now let's talk about something else but
now let's talk about something else but first let's get rid of a few
things what is the total amount of heat energy that went into the
energy that went into the system let's say
system let's say if this block represents the
if this block represents the system if we add these two values we're
system if we add these two values we're going to get how much heat energy flowed
going to get how much heat energy flowed into the system
and that's about 65,66 Jew of energy went into the
qh now how much heat energy went out of the system that's basically these values
the system that's basically these values because they're
because they're negative if we add
them this is going to be negative or just simply
53,9 this is also known as a ql that's the amount of heat energy lost
ql that's the amount of heat energy lost to the environment qh is the amount of
to the environment qh is the amount of heat energy that enters into the
heat energy that enters into the system the work is the difference
system the work is the difference between these two
values 655,000 minus 53,9
655,000 minus 53,9 is equal to approximately 142,000 if you
is equal to approximately 142,000 if you round
it so that's how much energy that came from heat and that was transferred into
from heat and that was transferred into mechanical
work now let's calculate the efficiency of the
efficiency of the system the efficiency is basically the
system the efficiency is basically the output work divided by the total heat
output work divided by the total heat energy that went into the system that is
energy that went into the system that is qh time
100% so that's going to be 142,000 ided by the
so the efficiency is 21.7% so what this means is that this
21.7% so what this means is that this particular system can take
particular system can take 21.7% of the heat energy that is
21.7% of the heat energy that is transferred to it and convert that heat
transferred to it and convert that heat energy into useful mechanical
energy into useful mechanical work the other
work the other 78.3% is lost to the environment which
78.3% is lost to the environment which is a lot of energy that's lost so these
is a lot of energy that's lost so these um devices are not very efficient but
um devices are not very efficient but nevertheless you can still use it to
nevertheless you can still use it to perform useful mechanical
work ethane gas has a gam ratio of 1.22 what is the molar heat capacity of
1.22 what is the molar heat capacity of ethane at constant volume and not
ethane at constant volume and not constant
constant pressure so how can we uh find CP and
pressure so how can we uh find CP and CV given this gamma
CV given this gamma ratio
ratio gamma is CP /
gamma is CP / CV it's the ratio of these two different
CV it's the ratio of these two different M he
M he capacities and we know that
capacities and we know that CP is equal to 5 over 2 R that's
CP is equal to 5 over 2 R that's basically uh the same as
basically uh the same as 2.5r and CV is 3 over2 R for U monatomic
2.5r and CV is 3 over2 R for U monatomic gas that's 1.5
gas that's 1.5 R now
R now 2.5r is equal to 1.5 r + 1 R 1.5 + 1 is
2.5r is equal to 1.5 r + 1 R 1.5 + 1 is 2.5 so therefore we can say that CP is
2.5 so therefore we can say that CP is equal to CV plus
equal to CV plus r so using uh this
r so using uh this relationship which is very accurate for
relationship which is very accurate for ideal gases
we could say that gamma is equal to CV + r / CV so basically we replace
to CV + r / CV so basically we replace CP with CV plus
CP with CV plus r and we could separate this into two uh
r and we could separate this into two uh fractions we could divide CV by itself
fractions we could divide CV by itself and R by CV which means that uh gamma is
and R by CV which means that uh gamma is 1 + r divided by uh
CV so let's subtract one from both sides if we do that we're going to get
this and if we this is the same as gamma minus one
we this is the same as gamma minus one over one if we flip both sides this is 1
over one if we flip both sides this is 1 over gamma minus 1 is equal to CV /
over gamma minus 1 is equal to CV / R and now if we multiply both sides by R
R and now if we multiply both sides by R we can see that CV is equal to R over
we can see that CV is equal to R over gamma minus one so this is how you could
gamma minus one so this is how you could find
equation now there's one more equation that we can
that we can write so keep we said that gamma is CP /
write so keep we said that gamma is CP / CV so if we let's move
CV so if we let's move this this way if we multiply both sides
this this way if we multiply both sides by
CV CP is gamma time CV and CV is equal to
CP is gamma time CV and CV is equal to that equation so CP is R * gamma over
that equation so CP is R * gamma over gamma minus
gamma minus one so this is another useful
one so this is another useful equation so with these two equations we
equation so with these two equations we can find CP and CV if we're given the
can find CP and CV if we're given the gamma ratio for a
gamma ratio for a gas so let's calculate CV that's going
gas so let's calculate CV that's going to be uh
8.3145 divid by 1.22 -
1.22 - one 1.22 -1 is simply 22 on the bottom
one 1.22 -1 is simply 22 on the bottom so
8.3145 /22 gives us a CV
/22 gives us a CV value of
value of 37.8 so that's the first answer that's
37.8 so that's the first answer that's the molar heat capacity at constant
the molar heat capacity at constant volume now at constant
volume now at constant pressure we can uh take R which is
pressure we can uh take R which is 8.3145 multiply by gamma
/ gamma minus one so 8.3145 * 1.22
1.22 id22 is
id22 is 46.1 so that's the M capacity at
46.1 so that's the M capacity at constant pressure so that's how you can
constant pressure so that's how you can find it given the gamma
find it given the gamma ratio here's another problem that we
ratio here's another problem that we could try how much heat is required to
could try how much heat is required to raise the temperature of 6.3 moles of
raise the temperature of 6.3 moles of propane from 30 C to 50 c at a constant
propane from 30 C to 50 c at a constant pressure of 2 ATM and we're given the
pressure of 2 ATM and we're given the gamma
gamma ratio well to find Q at constant
ratio well to find Q at constant pressure we can use the
pressure we can use the equation Q is equal to n CP delta T so
equation Q is equal to n CP delta T so we got to find CP
we got to find CP first and we can use the equation that
first and we can use the equation that we got um in the last problem
we got um in the last problem which is
which is uh R * gamma over gamma minus one so
uh R * gamma over gamma minus one so that's
1.27 divid by 1.27
by 1.27 minus1 which on the bottom is
minus1 which on the bottom is 0.127 so 8.3145 * 1.27 /
0.127 so 8.3145 * 1.27 / .27 is about
73 78 so using
78 so using this we can now calculate Q so Q is
this we can now calculate Q so Q is going to be equal to n the number of
going to be equal to n the number of moles which is
moles which is 6.5 time CP which is
6.5 time CP which is 73.7 times the change in temperature
73.7 times the change in temperature final minus initial 50 minus 30 that's
final minus initial 50 minus 30 that's uh 20
uh 20 so 73.7 *
so 73.7 * 6.5 * 20 is equal
6.5 * 20 is equal to
to 9,5
9,5 91.4
91.4 jewles so that's the aners to the first
jewles so that's the aners to the first part of the
part of the problem now for the second part what is
problem now for the second part what is the change in the internal energy of the
the change in the internal energy of the gas to find the change in internal
gas to find the change in internal energy we can use Q minus W but we don't
energy we can use Q minus W but we don't know the work so we can also use uh n CV
know the work so we can also use uh n CV delta T which is true for any
delta T which is true for any process so we got to find CV um before
process so we got to find CV um before we can use that equation so let's uh go
we can use that equation so let's uh go ahead and do
ahead and do that and we know that CV is equal to R /
that and we know that CV is equal to R / gamma minus one so that's
gamma minus one so that's 8.3145
8.3145 /
/ 1.27 minus 1
1.27 minus 1 so 8.3145 divid
so 8.3145 divid 0.127 is around
6547 so Delta U is going to equal to the number of moles
number of moles 6.5 time
6.5 time CV time delta T which is still
CV time delta T which is still 20 so 6.5 *
20 so 6.5 * 6547 *
6547 * 20 is equal to 8,500
20 is equal to 8,500 11.1
11.1 Jew and that's it for this
problem now here's a question for you let's say if you have a PV
let's say if you have a PV diagram with three isothermal graphs
diagram with three isothermal graphs which looks like
which looks like this let's say the first one is graph a
this let's say the first one is graph a this is B and this is C and there's
this is B and this is C and there's three temperature values 300 Kelvin 400
three temperature values 300 Kelvin 400 Kelvin and 500
Kelvin and 500 Kelvin so with this information which
Kelvin so with this information which graph is which one which one occurs at
graph is which one which one occurs at which temperature let's say we have
which temperature let's say we have pressure on the y- AIS volume on the x-
pressure on the y- AIS volume on the x- axis if you ever see a question like
axis if you ever see a question like this you need to know that the
this you need to know that the temperature increases as you go up in
temperature increases as you go up in this general
this general direction whenever you go to the right
direction whenever you go to the right the temperature increases because the
the temperature increases because the volume increases at constant pressure
volume increases at constant pressure according to Charles law when you
according to Charles law when you increase the temperature the volume goes
increase the temperature the volume goes up and when you go
up and when you go up the increase in temperature causes an
up the increase in temperature causes an increase in pressure at constant volume
increase in pressure at constant volume at constant volume when you increase the
at constant volume when you increase the temperature the pressure goes up so
temperature the pressure goes up so therefore C is at the highest
therefore C is at the highest temperature that is at 500 Kelvin a is
temperature that is at 500 Kelvin a is at the lowest temperature of 300 K which
at the lowest temperature of 300 K which means B is in the middle at 400 kin so
means B is in the middle at 400 kin so anytime you go in this general direction
anytime you go in this general direction C the temperature
C the temperature increases make sure you understand that
increases make sure you understand that for PV
diagrams now let's spend some time talking about the graph of an adiabatic
talking about the graph of an adiabatic expansion and let's see how it differs
expansion and let's see how it differs from an isothermal
from an isothermal expansion so let's say this is an ISO
expansion so let's say this is an ISO thermal expansion from A to
thermal expansion from A to B keep in mind for isothermal
B keep in mind for isothermal graphs or any isothermal process delta T
graphs or any isothermal process delta T is equal to zero the change in
is equal to zero the change in temperature is zero so the temperature
temperature is zero so the temperature remains
constant now for an adiabatic expansion it looks very similar but notice that
it looks very similar but notice that the curve is lower so a to c is anotic
the curve is lower so a to c is anotic expansion and for that Q is equal to
expansion and for that Q is equal to zero no heat enters or leaves the
zero no heat enters or leaves the system but notice that the temperature
drops so this is let's call this a d arotic expansion this is the isothermal
arotic expansion this is the isothermal graph so for adiabatic
graph so for adiabatic expansion when the volume
expansion when the volume increases the pressure decreases but it
increases the pressure decreases but it happens in such a way that the
happens in such a way that the temperature drops for isothermal graph
temperature drops for isothermal graph when the volume goes up the pressure
when the volume goes up the pressure goes
goes down but because the temperature is
down but because the temperature is constant for an ismal graph you can use
constant for an ismal graph you can use the equation P1 V1 is equal to P2
the equation P1 V1 is equal to P2 V2 now because the temperature changes
V2 now because the temperature changes in the adiabatic expansion because it
in the adiabatic expansion because it cools
cools down you need to use the variant of this
down you need to use the variant of this equation the equation that you need to
equation the equation that you need to use is uh
use is uh P1 V1 raised to to the gamma
P1 V1 raised to to the gamma power is equal to P2 V2 raised to the
power is equal to P2 V2 raised to the gamma
gamma power so as you can see it looks like
power so as you can see it looks like that equation but slightly different and
that equation but slightly different and there's also another equation that you
there's also another equation that you need to know it's T1
need to know it's T1 V1 raised to the gamma minus
V1 raised to the gamma minus one which is equal to T2 V2 rais to
one which is equal to T2 V2 rais to gamma minus one we can talk about how to
gamma minus one we can talk about how to derive this equation later well let's
derive this equation later well let's work on a problem
work on a problem using those
using those equations a car engine takes in air at
equations a car engine takes in air at 25° C and 1 atm and compresses it
25° C and 1 atm and compresses it adiabatically to 0.1 times the original
adiabatically to 0.1 times the original volume the air has a gamma ratio of 1.4
volume the air has a gamma ratio of 1.4 what is the final temperature and
what is the final temperature and pressure so we know that the temperature
pressure so we know that the temperature decreases during adiabatic uh expansion
decreases during adiabatic uh expansion but during adiabatic compression
but during adiabatic compression increases and if you decrease the volume
increases and if you decrease the volume the pressure will go up and it turns out
the pressure will go up and it turns out the temperature will go up as
the temperature will go up as well so let's work out this
well so let's work out this problem let's begin by using equation P1
problem let's begin by using equation P1 V1 raised to the gamma value is equal to
V1 raised to the gamma value is equal to P2
P2 V2 raised to
V2 raised to gamma now let's make a list of the
gamma now let's make a list of the information that we have T1 is 25 cels
information that we have T1 is 25 cels and if you add 273 to it that's going to
and if you add 273 to it that's going to equal 298
equal 298 Kelvin now we don't know what T2 is
Kelvin now we don't know what T2 is equal
equal to we know that P1 is 1
to we know that P1 is 1 atm and we don't have the value for P2
atm and we don't have the value for P2 we need to find that as
we need to find that as well we don't know what V1 or V2 is
well we don't know what V1 or V2 is equal to however we do know the ratio
equal to however we do know the ratio it's 0.1 so let's say if V1 is one liter
it's 0.1 so let's say if V1 is one liter that means V2 is going to be 0.1 time
that means V2 is going to be 0.1 time that .1 L it really doesn't matter the
that .1 L it really doesn't matter the the actual values of V1 and V2 the
the actual values of V1 and V2 the relative values is what matters if V1
relative values is what matters if V1 was 10 L V2 would be 10 * .1 which is 1
was 10 L V2 would be 10 * .1 which is 1 so regardless if you use 1 in 0.1 or 10
so regardless if you use 1 in 0.1 or 10 and one the answer will still be the
and one the answer will still be the same now if you've taken General
same now if you've taken General chemistry perhaps you've seen the
chemistry perhaps you've seen the combined gas law equation
now if we had T2 or P2 we could find a missing value but here we have two
missing value but here we have two missing values so therefore the combined
missing values so therefore the combined gas law won't help
gas law won't help us we need to use this equation to find
us we need to use this equation to find uh P2 and then the other equation to
uh P2 and then the other equation to find T2 so let's begin P1 is 1 V1 is 1
find T2 so let's begin P1 is 1 V1 is 1 raised to the gamma which is
raised to the gamma which is 1.4 we're looking for P2 V2 2 is
1.4 we're looking for P2 V2 2 is .1 raised to the uh
.1 raised to the uh 1.4 so to solve for
1.4 so to solve for P2 it's going to be 1 raised to the 1.4
P2 it's going to be 1 raised to the 1.4 which is simply 1 / 0.1 raised to the
which is simply 1 / 0.1 raised to the 1.4 so
P2 is about 25.1
ATM now let's use the other equation T1
equation T1 V1 gamma
V1 gamma -1 is equal to T2
-1 is equal to T2 V2 gamma minus one so T1 is 298 Kelvin
V2 gamma minus one so T1 is 298 Kelvin V1 is 1 gamma minus 1 that's 1.4 minus 1
V1 is 1 gamma minus 1 that's 1.4 minus 1 which is
which is uh4 we're looking for
uh4 we're looking for T2 and V2 is uh 0.1 raised to the
T2 and V2 is uh 0.1 raised to the point4 so T2 is going to be
point4 so T2 is going to be 298 times 1 raised to anything is 1 so 1
298 times 1 raised to anything is 1 so 1 to the point4 is 1 so it's 298 / .1 ra
to the point4 is 1 so it's 298 / .1 ra to
to the4 and you should get
the4 and you should get 7485
Kelvin if you subtract that by 273 that's
now let's talk about this but first let's make some
space now the volume changed from 1 liter to .1
liter to .1 lit so the volume decreased by a factor
lit so the volume decreased by a factor of
of 10 when the volume goes down the
10 when the volume goes down the pressure goes
pressure goes up but notice that all we did was we
up but notice that all we did was we decreased the volume by a factor of 10
decreased the volume by a factor of 10 and the pressure increased more than a
and the pressure increased more than a factor of 10 how did that
factor of 10 how did that happen well it has to do with the change
happen well it has to do with the change in
in temperature by decrease in the volume by
temperature by decrease in the volume by a factor of 10 the pressure actually
a factor of 10 the pressure actually goes up by a factor of 10 they're
goes up by a factor of 10 they're proportional according to B's law but
proportional according to B's law but let's look at the temperature the
let's look at the temperature the temperature changed from 298
temperature changed from 298 kelv to
kelv to 7485
7485 Kelvin when you increase the temperature
Kelvin when you increase the temperature you also increase the pressure if we
you also increase the pressure if we divide
divide 7485 by
7485 by 298 it tells us that the the temperature
298 it tells us that the the temperature went up by
went up by 2.51 so therefore the pressure should go
2.51 so therefore the pressure should go up by
up by 2.51 if you multiply these two values
2.51 if you multiply these two values you can see the pressure went up by a
you can see the pressure went up by a combined value of
25.1 so it increased by a factor of 10 due to the decrease in volume and it
due to the decrease in volume and it increased by a factor of 2.51 due to the
increased by a factor of 2.51 due to the increase in
increase in temperature so as you can see the
temperature so as you can see the pressure and the temperature greatly
pressure and the temperature greatly increased in this
increased in this situation which means adiabatic
situation which means adiabatic compression is very useful for engines
compression is very useful for engines if you think about it
if you think about it as the gas compresses
as the gas compresses adiabatically the increase in pressure
adiabatically the increase in pressure and the increase in
and the increase in temperature greatly accelerates the
temperature greatly accelerates the reaction between the air and the
reaction between the air and the fuel at high pressures gas molecules
fuel at high pressures gas molecules Collide more frequently which increases
Collide more frequently which increases the rate of the reaction also if you
the rate of the reaction also if you increase the temperature they Collide
increase the temperature they Collide not only more frequently but also with
not only more frequently but also with more energy making the reaction more
more energy making the reaction more spontaneous and as a result
spontaneous and as a result when you compress the when you compress
when you compress the when you compress the air fuel mixture
the air fuel mixture adiabatically you really don't need a
adiabatically you really don't need a spark plug the high temperature and
spark plug the high temperature and pressure could ignite the mixture
pressure could ignite the mixture spontaneously which is very useful for
engines now let's talk about how to derive those equations for an adiabatic
derive those equations for an adiabatic process we know that there's no exchange
process we know that there's no exchange of
of heat the heat flow into or out of the
heat the heat flow into or out of the system is zero so so Q is z and
system is zero so so Q is z and according to the first law of
according to the first law of thermodynamics the change in internal
thermodynamics the change in internal energy is Q minus W so if Q is zero that
energy is Q minus W so if Q is zero that means Delta U is equal to
means Delta U is equal to W and we know that Delta U for any
W and we know that Delta U for any process is
process is ncv time delta
T and the work is typically pressure times a change in
times a change in volume and according to the ID gas law
volume and according to the ID gas law PV is equal to nrt so if we solve for p
PV is equal to nrt so if we solve for p it's nrt divid
it's nrt divid V so let's replace p with this
V so let's replace p with this expression so now we have the expression
expression so now we have the expression ncv delta T is equal to
ncv delta T is equal to nrt over V * Delta V so we can cancel
nrt over V * Delta V so we can cancel the number of moles which is n
the number of moles which is n and so we're left with uh CV delta T is
and so we're left with uh CV delta T is equal to
equal to RT Delta V divided by
RT Delta V divided by V so now what we're going to do is
V so now what we're going to do is divide both sides
divide both sides by T and CV so I'm going to divide the
by T and CV so I'm going to divide the left side by CV and T and the right side
left side by CV and T and the right side by CV and
by CV and T so on the left side T is going to
T so on the left side T is going to cancel and on the right side CV will
cancel and on the right side CV will cancel
so I now have the expression delta T / T is equal to RV
expression delta T / T is equal to RV over CV Delta V /
over CV Delta V / V now if you recall CV is equal to R /
V now if you recall CV is equal to R / gamma minus one if we multiply both
gamma minus one if we multiply both sides by gamma minus one or even if we
sides by gamma minus one or even if we cross
cross multiply CV * gamma -
multiply CV * gamma - 1 is equal to 1 * R which is
1 is equal to 1 * R which is R so if we divide both sides by CV gamma
R so if we divide both sides by CV gamma minus 1 is equal to R over
minus 1 is equal to R over CV so now we
CV so now we can
can replace R over CV with gamma minus one
replace R over CV with gamma minus one so we have delta T / T is equal
so we have delta T / T is equal to gamma - 1
to gamma - 1 Delta v
Delta v v now let's take this expression let's
v now let's take this expression let's move it to this
move it to this side so it's delta T / T is equal to
side so it's delta T / T is equal to positive well not equal to but plus
positive well not equal to but plus gamma minus1 time Delta V over V and
gamma minus1 time Delta V over V and this is equal to
zero now delta T if the change is very small we can say it's approxim equal to
small we can say it's approxim equal to DT and Delta V given a small change in V
DT and Delta V given a small change in V we could say that's equal to
we could say that's equal to DV so I'm going to rewrite the
DV so I'm going to rewrite the expression as 1 / T *
expression as 1 / T * DT
DT plus Gamma
plus Gamma minus1 1 / V *
minus1 1 / V * DV and this is equal to
DV and this is equal to zero so now we're going to find the
zero so now we're going to find the anti-derivative of both sides of the
anti-derivative of both sides of the equation so let's integrate 1 / T 1 V
equation so let's integrate 1 / T 1 V and Z gam minus one is a constant so we
and Z gam minus one is a constant so we can move it in front of the integral now
can move it in front of the integral now if you recall we said the
if you recall we said the anti-derivative of 1 /x is L and X so
anti-derivative of 1 /x is L and X so the anti-derivative of 1/ T is Ln T and
the anti-derivative of 1/ T is Ln T and the anti-derivative of 1/ V is simply
the anti-derivative of 1/ V is simply lnv times the constant in front of it
lnv times the constant in front of it which is gamma minus one the
which is gamma minus one the anti-derivative of zero is equal to a
anti-derivative of zero is equal to a constant
now a property of natural logs allows us to take the constant in the front and
to take the constant in the front and move it to the exponent position so 2 Ln
move it to the exponent position so 2 Ln a is equivalent to Ln a^
a is equivalent to Ln a^ 2 so using that property of natural logs
2 so using that property of natural logs we can take the value gamma minus one
we can take the value gamma minus one and move it onto the exponent of V so Ln
and move it onto the exponent of V so Ln t plus Ln
t plus Ln V raised to the gamma minus 1 is equal
V raised to the gamma minus 1 is equal to a
to a constant another property of logs that
constant another property of logs that we can employ is this property LNA a
we can employ is this property LNA a plus Ln B is equivalent to Ln a *
plus Ln B is equivalent to Ln a * B so we can take two natural logs and
B so we can take two natural logs and compress it into a single natural log so
compress it into a single natural log so Ln T * V raised to the gamma minus one
Ln T * V raised to the gamma minus one is equal to a
constant so Ln T1 V1 gam minus1 is equal to a constant which is equal to Ln T2 at
to a constant which is equal to Ln T2 at a different temperature and V2 at a
a different temperature and V2 at a different volume but raised to the gamma
different volume but raised to the gamma minus
minus one so if these two are equal to the
one so if these two are equal to the same constant they must be equal to each
same constant they must be equal to each other so we can say that T1
other so we can say that T1 V1 gamma minus 1 is equal to T2 V2 G
V1 gamma minus 1 is equal to T2 V2 G minus
one now at this point let's go back to the ideal gas law equation PV is equal
the ideal gas law equation PV is equal to nrt this time we're going to solve
to nrt this time we're going to solve for a t PV / NR is equal to T if you
for a t PV / NR is equal to T if you divide both sides by the NR value
if you do that D will cancel and you get this expression so let's replace t with
this expression so let's replace t with PV over NR so T1 is P1 V1 / NR R is
PV over NR so T1 is P1 V1 / NR R is constant and we're not going to change
constant and we're not going to change the moles of gas so n will be
constant so T2 is going to equal P2 V2 over NR * V2 gamma -
over NR * V2 gamma - so n r is the same we can cancel these
so n r is the same we can cancel these two now according to the rules of
two now according to the rules of algebra if you multiply let's say two
algebra if you multiply let's say two common
common variables you can add the exponents so
variables you can add the exponents so X2 * X Cub is x 5 2 + 3 is 5 therefore
X2 * X Cub is x 5 2 + 3 is 5 therefore if we multiply V1 raised to the first
if we multiply V1 raised to the first Power with V1 raised to the gamma minus
Power with V1 raised to the gamma minus one
one we can add 1 + gamma - 1 which is equal
we can add 1 + gamma - 1 which is equal to gamma so V1 * V1 gamma minus one is
to gamma so V1 * V1 gamma minus one is just V1 raised to the
gamma so these two combine will simply become V1 raised to the gamma power and
become V1 raised to the gamma power and the same is true for the other side it's
the same is true for the other side it's going to be V2 raised to the gamma so
going to be V2 raised to the gamma so that's how we we can get this
equation so now what we're going to do is go over all of the equations that we
is go over all of the equations that we went in this video we're just going to
went in this video we're just going to do a final summary and that's going to
do a final summary and that's going to be uh it for this
be uh it for this video now the first and most important
video now the first and most important equation that you need to know is the
equation that you need to know is the first law of
first law of thermodynamics which is basically the
thermodynamics which is basically the change in internal energy is equal to Q
change in internal energy is equal to Q minus W anytime heat is absorbed by the
minus W anytime heat is absorbed by the system Q is positive and when heat is
system Q is positive and when heat is released Q is
released Q is negative when work is done by the system
negative when work is done by the system work is positive and when work is done
work is positive and when work is done on the system work is negative so let me
on the system work is negative so let me just write that this is by the
just write that this is by the system
system and this is on the
system now the system performs work whenever the gas
whenever the gas expands now to do work on a system
expands now to do work on a system ideally on a gas you need to compress it
ideally on a gas you need to compress it so compress in a gas work is always
so compress in a gas work is always negative for that
process Now Delta U is always dependent on
on temperature Delta U is equal to n CV
temperature Delta U is equal to n CV delta T for any
delta T for any process so if the change in temperature
process so if the change in temperature is zero Delta U is zero if the
is zero Delta U is zero if the temperature
temperature increases then the internal energy will
increases then the internal energy will increase as well so this is the next
increase as well so this is the next equation that you
equation that you need now keep in mind for monoatomic
need now keep in mind for monoatomic gases like
gases like helium uh neon
helium uh neon argon CV is approximately equal to 3
argon CV is approximately equal to 3 over2 * R and CP is 5 over2 *
over2 * R and CP is 5 over2 * R now R has two values
for the most part R is usually 8.3145 jewles per mole per
8.3145 jewles per mole per Kelvin but if you're dealing with gases
Kelvin but if you're dealing with gases where p is in ATM and V is in liters
where p is in ATM and V is in liters sometimes you may use this
equation typically you may need to use this RV value for the ideal gas law
this RV value for the ideal gas law equation PV is equal to nrt
but going back to gases if we have a datomic gas like N2 or O2 or even
datomic gas like N2 or O2 or even H2 you can approximate CV using this
H2 you can approximate CV using this equation 5 over 2 * R and CP is 7 over2
equation 5 over 2 * R and CP is 7 over2 *
* R and if you have a gas with three atoms
R and if you have a gas with three atoms like CO2
like CO2 SO2 it's better to look up the CP and CV
SO2 it's better to look up the CP and CV values but if you don't have it if you
values but if you don't have it if you can't look it up the best thing you
can't look it up the best thing you could do is estimate the answer
could do is estimate the answer so CV is going to be equal to 7/2 R and
so CV is going to be equal to 7/2 R and CP is approximately equal to 92 R so
CP is approximately equal to 92 R so this is approximately equal
this is approximately equal to there will be some uh
to there will be some uh variations now the first process that we
variations now the first process that we need to talk about is an isocoric
process in a PV diagram it looks like this it's basically a straight line
this it's basically a straight line going up or down
for an isocoric process the change in volume is
volume is zero so therefore the work performed is
zero so therefore the work performed is zero since there's no area there's no
zero since there's no area there's no shade of
shade of region because work is equal to
region because work is equal to zero Q is equal to W I mean not W but
zero Q is equal to W I mean not W but Delta
Delta U so this equation still applies Delta U
U so this equation still applies Delta U is Q minus W and since W is zero Delta U
is Q minus W and since W is zero Delta U equal Q
equal Q so you can use this equation to find
so you can use this equation to find Delta u n CV delta
Delta u n CV delta T this will always
T this will always work and Q is also equal to ncv do T
work and Q is also equal to ncv do T because the volume is
constant so those equations are the same since they equal each
other now this more for an isocoric process where the change in volume is
process where the change in volume is constant I mean is equal to zero you can
constant I mean is equal to zero you can also use this equation Q is equal to V
also use this equation Q is equal to V CV Delta P /
CV Delta P / R so this equation
R so this equation applies and also since the volume is
applies and also since the volume is constant when the temperature goes up
constant when the temperature goes up the pressure will go up
the pressure will go up proportionally so you can also use this
proportionally so you can also use this equation P1 / T1
equation P1 / T1 is equal to P2 / T2 during an isocoric
is equal to P2 / T2 during an isocoric process so that's it for this process
process so that's it for this process now let's move on to the next one now
now let's move on to the next one now let's talk about the isomeric
let's talk about the isomeric process this is when the pressure is
process this is when the pressure is constant so Delta p is equal to zero and
constant so Delta p is equal to zero and the PV diagram looks like
this you can travel to the right or to the
the left now keep in mind whenever you
left now keep in mind whenever you travel towards the right the work
travel towards the right the work performed by the gas is
performed by the gas is positive and if you travel towards the
positive and if you travel towards the left the work performed by the gas is
left the work performed by the gas is negative and remember the work performed
negative and remember the work performed is equal to the
is equal to the area of the Shader
region so for an isobaric process the work is equal to P Delta V V this is the
work is equal to P Delta V V this is the equation that you want to use now you
equation that you want to use now you can also find the work in terms of
can also find the work in terms of temperature it's equal to NR * delta
temperature it's equal to NR * delta T since PV is equal to nrt P Delta V is
T since PV is equal to nrt P Delta V is equal to NR delta T so that's another
equal to NR delta T so that's another way you could find the work during an
way you could find the work during an isobaric
isobaric process now to calculate Q during an
process now to calculate Q during an isobaric process you can use the
isobaric process you can use the equation n CP delta T you can also use
equation n CP delta T you can also use the equation
the equation P
P CP Delta V since the volume changes ID
R and Delta U is still Q minus W this equation applies and it's also equal to
equation applies and it's also equal to n cv.
t now for an isobaric process since the pressure is constant when you increase
pressure is constant when you increase the
the temperature the volume will
temperature the volume will increase and according to Charles's Law
increase and according to Charles's Law you can use this equation V1 / T1 is
you can use this equation V1 / T1 is equal to V2 /
process which looks like this as you mentioned before the work
this as you mentioned before the work performed by the gas is equal to the
performed by the gas is equal to the area of the Shad of region
and since we have a shape of a rectangle the area is basically the length times
the area is basically the length times the width the length is the change in
the width the length is the change in pressure the width is the change in
pressure the width is the change in volume so in this instance the work is
volume so in this instance the work is equal to the change in pressure times
equal to the change in pressure times the change in
volume so that's a combination of an isobaric and isocoric
isobaric and isocoric process now if you have a PB diagram
process now if you have a PB diagram that looks like this let's say
that looks like this let's say if you start at an initial pressure and
if you start at an initial pressure and it increases to a final pressure and
it increases to a final pressure and also the volume changes from an initial
also the volume changes from an initial value to a final
value to a final value the work perform is still the area
value the work perform is still the area of the Shaded
of the Shaded region but a simple way to calculate
region but a simple way to calculate this area is to use this equation it's
this area is to use this equation it's to use an average pressure to find the
to use an average pressure to find the average
pressure you still use the equation P Delta V but to find the average pressure
Delta V but to find the average pressure you simply add up the initial and the
you simply add up the initial and the final pressure and divide it by two so
final pressure and divide it by two so the work performed is2 the sum of the
the work performed is2 the sum of the two pressures times the change in
two pressures times the change in volume that's if the pressure changes at
volume that's if the pressure changes at a constant rate it can increase or
a constant rate it can increase or decrease as long as that line is a
decrease as long as that line is a straight line you can use this
straight line you can use this equation if you want to you can
equation if you want to you can calculate the area by turning this into
calculate the area by turning this into a rectangle and triangle so if you find
a rectangle and triangle so if you find the area of the rectangle and and the
the area of the rectangle and and the triangle um you can also calculate the
triangle um you can also calculate the area which is equal to the
area which is equal to the work the area of a rectangle is length
work the area of a rectangle is length time width the area of a triangle 1 12
time width the area of a triangle 1 12 base time
height now there's one more thing we need to talk
need to talk about so let's say if we have a cyclic
process so you know how to find the work which is the area of the Shaded region
which is the area of the Shaded region but you need to know if it's positive or
but you need to know if it's positive or negative so if the process is moving in
negative so if the process is moving in the clockwise Direction the work
the clockwise Direction the work performed is
performed is positive but if you have a cyclic
positive but if you have a cyclic process moving in the counterclockwise
process moving in the counterclockwise Direction then the work performed is
Direction then the work performed is negative so keep that in
negative so keep that in mind and
mind and also the net heat flow during a cyclic
also the net heat flow during a cyclic process is equal to W because as you
process is equal to W because as you start from position a going to B to C to
start from position a going to B to C to D and back to
D and back to a going from a to
a going from a to a the change in internal energy is zero
a the change in internal energy is zero and since Delta U is Q minus
and since Delta U is Q minus W if Delta U is equal to zero that means
W if Delta U is equal to zero that means Q has to equal W so for any cyclic
Q has to equal W so for any cyclic process the total heat flow or the net
process the total heat flow or the net heat flow is
heat flow is basically W the net heat flow
basically W the net heat flow is the amount of heat that enters the
is the amount of heat that enters the system minus the heat that leaves the
system minus the heat that leaves the system qh represents the energy that
system qh represents the energy that enters the system that's how much that's
enters the system that's how much that's the total heat absorbed by the system ql
the total heat absorbed by the system ql represents the energy that is released
represents the energy that is released by the system and the difference between
by the system and the difference between those two is equal to W the efficiency
those two is equal to W the efficiency is basically the work performed divided
is basically the work performed divided by the total heat that entered the
by the total heat that entered the system these two values are different
system these two values are different this is usually
larger so the efficiency is W minus qh but also times
100% the third process that we need to review is the
review is the ismal
process ISO means the same so isothermal the temperature is going to be the same
the temperature is going to be the same so the change of temperature is
so the change of temperature is zero now the isothermal graph looks like
zero now the isothermal graph looks like this in a PV
this in a PV diagram to calculate the work performed
diagram to calculate the work performed in an isothermal situation you can use
in an isothermal situation you can use this equation it's equal to
this equation it's equal to nrt * Ln V final / V
nrt * Ln V final / V initial you can also use this equation
initial you can also use this equation nrt Ln p P final / P
nrt Ln p P final / P initial now because the change in
initial now because the change in temperature is zero that means Delta U
temperature is zero that means Delta U is equal to zero keep in mind Delta U is
is equal to zero keep in mind Delta U is ncv delta T So if this part is equal to
ncv delta T So if this part is equal to zero the whole thing is equal to Zer now
zero the whole thing is equal to Zer now if Delta U is equal to Z and Delta U is
if Delta U is equal to Z and Delta U is Q minus W that means Q - W is equal to Z
Q minus W that means Q - W is equal to Z which means
which means Q is equal to W for an isothermal
Q is equal to W for an isothermal process so you can also find Q using any
process so you can also find Q using any one of these equations since it is equal
one of these equations since it is equal to
W now since the temperature is constant for an isothermal
for an isothermal process that means that as you increase
process that means that as you increase the volume at constant temperature the
the volume at constant temperature the pressure decreases
pressure decreases proportionally so you can also use this
proportionally so you can also use this equation P1 V1 is equal to P2
equation P1 V1 is equal to P2 V2 that is spoils
V2 that is spoils law so that's it for an isothermal
law so that's it for an isothermal process now let's move on to an
process now let's move on to an adiabatic
process in this process the insulation is either very very good or the process
is either very very good or the process happens so quickly that heat doesn't
happens so quickly that heat doesn't have enough time to enter into or out of
have enough time to enter into or out of the system so for an antibiotic process
the system so for an antibiotic process Q is approximately equal to
Q is approximately equal to zero and if that's the case that means
zero and if that's the case that means that Delta U is equal to W since Q is
that Delta U is equal to W since Q is zero so we know we could find Delta U
zero so we know we could find Delta U using this equation ncv delta T for any
using this equation ncv delta T for any process that means that you can also
process that means that you can also find the work using equation
find the work using equation negative n CV delta
T now keep in mind you can find CV by using this equation it's equal to R over
using this equation it's equal to R over gam minus1 where R is
gam minus1 where R is 8.3145 and CP is equal to R * gamma over
8.3145 and CP is equal to R * gamma over gamma minus one and Gamma is the ratio
gamma minus one and Gamma is the ratio between CP and
CV and then you also have these equations P1
equations P1 V1 raised to the gamma is equal to P2 V2
V1 raised to the gamma is equal to P2 V2 raised to the gamma and also uh T1
raised to the gamma and also uh T1 V1 gamma minus 1 is equal to T2
V1 gamma minus 1 is equal to T2 V2 gamma minus
V2 gamma minus one now you can also find work using
one now you can also find work using some other equations so starting with
some other equations so starting with this
this equation n CV delta
equation n CV delta T it might be useful to write this
T it might be useful to write this equation in terms of pressure and volume
nrt the change in PV is equal to NR time the change in delta
the change in delta T so the change in PV / NR is equal to
T so the change in PV / NR is equal to delta
delta T so we have
T so we have ncv times
ncv times Delta PV over
NR so n cancels so here's another equation that
cancels so here's another equation that you might find useful the work is equal
you might find useful the work is equal to
to negative CV /
negative CV / R
R times
times pfal V
pfal V final minus P initial * V
final minus P initial * V initial so that's another equation that
initial so that's another equation that be useful if you need to calculate the
be useful if you need to calculate the work performed in a adiabatic process
work performed in a adiabatic process and if you don't have the temperature
and if you don't have the temperature but if you have the pressure and the
but if you have the pressure and the volume you can use that as
well you can also use this equation W is equal
to -1/ gamma -1 p P final V final minus P initial V
initial you can get that equation using the fact that CV is R over gamma minus
the fact that CV is R over gamma minus one if you cross multiply CV * gamma
one if you cross multiply CV * gamma minus1 is equal to
R and if you divide both sides by let's say CV
gamma minus one is r/ CV therefore 1 over gamma minus one is CV over R so you
over gamma minus one is CV over R so you replace this with uh one over G minus
replace this with uh one over G minus one and that's how you get the other
one and that's how you get the other equation so basically that's all the
equation so basically that's all the equations that you need for this
equations that you need for this particular topic so that is it for this
particular topic so that is it for this video thanks for watching and have a
