6. calculate the enthalpy change and the heat when 5 moles helium(he) gas underwent a isobaric process from 25°c to 100°c.
Answer
Explanation:
Step1: Identify the molar - specific heat at constant pressure for He
For a mono - atomic ideal gas like He, the molar - specific heat at constant pressure $C_p=\frac{5}{2}R$, where $R = 8.314\ J/(mol\cdot K)$. $C_p=\frac{5}{2}\times8.314\ J/(mol\cdot K)=20.785\ J/(mol\cdot K)$
Step2: Convert temperatures to Kelvin
$T_1 = 25^{\circ}C=(25 + 273.15)K=298.15K$ $T_2 = 100^{\circ}C=(100 + 273.15)K = 373.15K$ $\Delta T=T_2 - T_1=373.15K - 298.15K = 75K$
Step3: Calculate the enthalpy change
The formula for the enthalpy change $\Delta H$ in an isobaric process is $\Delta H=nC_p\Delta T$. Given $n = 5mol$, $C_p = 20.785\ J/(mol\cdot K)$ and $\Delta T = 75K$ $\Delta H=5mol\times20.785\ J/(mol\cdot K)\times75K=7794.375J$
Step4: Recall the relationship between heat and enthalpy in an isobaric process
In an isobaric process, $Q=\Delta H$. So $Q = 7794.375J$
Answer:
The enthalpy change $\Delta H = 7794.375J$ and the heat $Q = 7794.375J$
