What is the maximum mass of ethyl alcohol you could boil with 1000 J of heat, starting from 20°C?

A monatomic ideal gas that is initially at 1.50 * 10^5 Pa and has a volume of 0.0800 m^3 is compressed adiabatically to a volume of 0.0400 m^3. (a) What is the final pressure?

Five moles of monatomic ideal gas have initial pressure 2.50 * 10^3 Pa and initial volume 2.10 m^3 . While undergoing an adiabatic expansion, the gas does 1480 J of work. What is the final pressure of the gas after the expansion?

During an isothermal compression of an ideal gas, 410 J of heat must be removed from the gas to maintain constant temperature. How much work is done by the gas during the process?

Two cars collide head-on while each is traveling at 80 km/h. Suppose all their kinetic energy is transformed into the thermal energy of the wrecks. What is the temperature increase of each car? You can assume that each car's specific heat is that of iron.

An experiment measures the temperature of a 500 g substance while steadily supplying heat to it. FIGURE EX19.20 shows the results of the experiment. What are the (d) heats of fusion and vaporization?

5.0 g of nitrogen gas at 20°C and an initial pressure of 3.0 atm undergo an isobaric expansion until the volume has tripled.a. What are the gas volume and temperature after the expansion?

5.0 g of nitrogen gas at 20°C and an initial pressure of 3.0 atm undergo an isobaric expansion until the volume has tripled.b. How much heat energy is transferred to the gas to cause this expansion?

5.0 g of nitrogen gas at 20°C and an initial pressure of 3.0 atm undergo an isobaric expansion until the volume has tripled.c. What is the gas pressure after the decrease?
