Multiple Choice

A gas in a cylinder held at a constant pressure 1.80×10⁵ Pa expands from a volume of 1.2 m³ to 1.6 m³. The internal energy of the gas decreases from 4.40×10⁵ J to 3×10⁵ J. How much heat was transferred to the gas?

The internal energy of a system decreases by 500 J, and 230 J of work is done on the system. What is the heat transfer into or out of this system?

Boiling Water at High Pressure. When water is boiled at a pressure of 2.00 atm, the heat of vaporization is 2.20 * 10^6 J/kg and the boiling point is 120°C. At this pressure, 1.00 kg of water has a volume of 1.00 * 10^-3 m^3 , and 1.00 kg of steam has a volume of 0.824 m^3. (b) Compute the increase in internal energy of the water.

Textbook Question

A gas in a cylinder expands from a volume of 0.110 m^3 to 0.320 m^3 . Heat flows into the gas just rapidly enough to keep the pressure constant at 1.65 * 10^5 Pa during the expansion. The total heat added is 1.15 * 10^5 J. (a) Find the work done by the gas.

A scuba diver releases a 3.60-cm-diameter (spherical) bubble of air from a depth of 14.0 m. Assume the temperature is constant at 298 K, and that the air behaves as an ideal gas. (c) Apply the first law of thermodynamics to the bubble, and find the work done by the air in rising to the surface, the change in its internal energy, and the heat added or removed from the air in the bubble as it rises. Take the density of water to be 1000 kg/m³.
