A sample of a monatomic ideal gas is originally at 20 °c. what is the final temperature of the gas if the pressure is doubled and volume is reduced to one-fourth its initial value?

Respuesta :

Answer:

the final temperature is T2=  -126.5°C

Explanation:

Since the gas behaves as an ideal gas

Initial state) P1*V1=n*R*T1

Final state) P2*V2=n*R*T2

where P= gas pressure , V=volume occupied by the gas , n= number of moles , R= ideal gas constant , T= absolute temperature

dividing both equations

(P2/P1)*(V2/V1)=T2/T1

since P2=2*P1 and V2=1/4*V1 , T1=20°C=293K

2*1/4=T2/T1

T2=T1/2 = 293K/2 = 146.5K

T2= 146.5K= -126.5°C

The final temperature of the gas will be   [tex]T_{f} =-126.5 C[/tex]

what will be the final temperature of the gas?

It is given that

Initial temperature = 20 C = 273+20=239k

Now the pressure is doubled so new pressure

[tex]P_{n} = 2P[/tex]

Volume is reduced to one fourth then

[tex]V_{n} =\dfrac{V}{4}[/tex]

Now we know that from the ideal gas equation

The initial condition of the gas

[tex]PV=nRT[/tex]

[tex]PV=nR(293)[/tex].......................(1)

For the final condition of the gas

[tex]P_{n} V_{n} =nRT_{n}[/tex]

putting values

[tex]2P\times \dfrac{V}{4} } =nRT_{n}[/tex]

[tex]PV=2nRT_{n}[/tex].............................(2)

from equations (1) and (2) we get

[tex]2nRT_{n} =nR(293)[/tex]

[tex]T_{n} = 146.5-273=-126.5 C[/tex]

Thus the final temperature of the gas will be   [tex]T_{f} =-126.5 C[/tex]
