3.4 [Circle if you choose this] (P3.16) [ /10]

A mass of 36.0 g of H2O(s) at 243.0 K is dropped into 180.0 g of H2O(l) at 323.0 K in an insulated container at 1 bar of pressure. Calculate the temperature of the system once equilibrium has been reached. Assume that CP,m(s) and CP,m(l) for H2O(s) and H2O(l) are constant throughout the temperature range of interest, respectively. Use CP,m(l) = 75.3 Jmol-1K-1 and CP,m(s) = 36.2 Jmol-1K-1. Molar fusion enthalpy (Hfusion) and molar vaporization enthalpy (Hvaporization) for H2O are 6.01 kJmol-1 and 40.65 kJmol-1, respectively. Assume that the melting point of ice is 273.0 K and that the molar mass for water is 18.0 g mol-1.

(a) Show the formula for the heat needed to increase the temperature of the ice from 243 K to 273 K.

(b) Show the equation to obtain the final temperature T (in the form of T = ..). Explain what each term represents.

(c) Calculate T.

Answer below with equations for full credit.

(a) nH2O(S) Cp,m(s) (273K - 243K) (3 points)

Or nH2O(S) Cp,m(s) (Tfin H2O(s) – Tini H2O(s))

(b)

nH2O(S) Cp,m(s) (273K - 243K) + nH2O(S)Hfusion + nH2O(S) Cp,m(l) (T - 273K)

+ nH2O(l) Cp,m(l) (T - 323K) = 0

(2 points)

T = {-nH2O(S) Cp,m(s) (273K - 243K) - nH2O(S)Hfusion + nH2O(S) Cp,m(l) (273K)

+ nH2O(l) Cp,m(l) (323K)}/{ nH2O(S) Cp,m(l) + nH2O(l) Cp,m(l)} (1 point)

The first term, the energy needed to increase the temp of ice from 243K to 273K,

The second term is the energy needed to change melt ice to liquid at 273K,

The third term is the energy needed to change melted water from 273K to T

The last term is the energy needed to change water from 323K to T.

(1 point)

(c) nH2O(s) = 36.0g/18.0 gmol-1 = 2.00 mol & nH2O(l) =180.0g/18.0 gmol-1 = 10.0 mol. (1 point)

T = {-nH2O(S) Cp,m(s) (273K - 243K) - nH2O(S)Hfusion + nH2O(S) Cp,m(l) (273K)

+ nH2O(l) Cp,m(l) (323K)}/{ nH2O(S) Cp,m(l) + nH2O(l) Cp,m(l)}

= {-2.00 mol 36.2 Jmol-1K-1 (30.0 K) – 2.00 mol x 6010 Jmol-1 + 2.00 x 75.3 Jmol-1 K-1 (273K)

+ 10.0 mol 75.3 Jmol-1 K-1 (323K)}/{ (12.0 mol)x75.3 Jmol-1K-1} =299 K (2 points)

4. Derivation Questions Q1-6 2 points [ /12]

Fill a formula or equation in [Q1-Q6].

4.1 In an adiabatic expansion process, q = 0. In this case, for an isolated system, U = w. From this equation,

CVdT = -PextdV. [1]

When the process is reversible, Pext = Pint. By combining this with eq. [1], we obtain CVdT = -PintdV. For an

ideal gas, CVdT = -nRT/VdV. From this,

CV[ Q1 ]dT = -nR(1/V)dV [2]

By integrating the both sides of eq. [2], we obtain

CVln(Tfin/Tini) = [ Q2 ], [3]

where Vini and Vfin denotes the volume before and after expansion, respectively. This yields

(Tfin/Tini) = (Vfin/Vini)A,

where A = -nR/CV. This can be rewritten as the equation of P and V as

(PfinVfin/PiniVini) = (Vfin/Vini)A.

Thus, (Pfin/Pini) = (Vfin/Vini)(A – 1)

(A-1) is rewritten as [ Q3 ] using Cp/CV without the gas constant R.

4.2 In Joule-Thompson’s experiment (see the figure below), the left piston is under the external pressure P1, which equals the initial internal pressure. The right piston is subject to the external pressure of P2. Assuming that P1 > P2, The gas moves from the left and right while changing the volume from V1 to V2. The work applied in this process is w = wleft + wright = [ Q4 ]. Because this experiment is adiabatic, q = 0. Then, U2 – U1 = w (because U = w +q = w). This leads to H1 = H2.
