Thermal & Kinetic Lecture 22 Problems Class II
Is it possible for the temperature of an ideal gas to rise without heat flowing into the gas? • Yes • No • Don’t know
Must the temperature of an ideal gas necessarily change as a result of hear flow into or out of it? • Yes • No • Don’t know
…compare to CW Set 4 • Q1. 1 mole of an ideal gas originally at a pressure of 1.0 x 104 Pa and occupying a volume of 0.2 m3 undergoes the following cyclic process: • an adiabatic compression until the pressure is 3.0 x 104 Pa; • an isobaric expansion to a volume of 0.4 m3; • an isothermal expansion until the pressure reaches 1.0 x 104 Pa; • an isobaric compression to the original volume of 0.2 m3. • Draw a PV diagram for this process [3]. • For each of the stages (i) – (iv) calculate the heat transferred [5], the work done [5], and the change in internal energy [5]. • Show that only internal energy is a function of state [2].
What do you need to use to solve this type of PV cycle question? • Ideal gas law: PV = nRT • First law: DU = Q + W • Equation for adiabatic, P1V1g = P2V2g • Equation for adiabatic work: • Q = CvDT (isochoric); • Q = CPDT (isobaric) • Work done in isothermal, isobaric, isochoric process • Only internal energy is a function of state
Numerical answers to all (past!) exam questions are on web at: http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/physics/intranet/undergrad/ug_numericalanswers.php

If the energy levels are spaced by 0.25 eV and the number of molecules with energy E1 is a factor of 10-5 smaller than the number with energy E0, calculate the value of T. • 101 K • 2112 K • 273 K • 252 K • None of these • Don’t know
