Consider the vaporization of liquid water to steam at a pressure of 1 atm. (a) Is this process endothermic or exothermic?
Consider the vaporization of liquid water to steam at a pressure of 1 atm. (b) In what temperature range is it a spontaneous process?
Consider the vaporization of liquid water to steam at a pressure of 1 atm. (c) In what temperature range is it a nonspontaneous process?
The normal freezing point of n-octane (C8H18) is -57 °C. (b) In what temperature range is the freezing of n-octane a spontaneous process?
The normal freezing point of n-octane (C8H18) is -57 °C. (d) Is there any temperature at which liquid n-octane and solid n-octane are in equilibrium? Explain.
Consider a process in which an ideal gas changes from state 1 to state 2 in such a way that its temperature changes from 300 K to 200 K. (a) Does the temperature change depend on whether the process is reversible or irreversible?
