W3 Ideal Gas and Aluminum Gas Exercises

 

I’m studying for my Physics class and don’t understand how to answer this. Can you help me study?

  1. Find the change in entropy if 72.5 g of aluminum, originally at 225oC, is melted. (HINT look up the melting point of aluminum)
  2. Find the change of entropy of 2.00 mol of a monoatomic a gas if it undergoes a process from A to B where TB=TA/2, and VB=3VA.
  3. A freezer is a Carnot Refrigerator that makes ice at -4.00oC. Its coefficient of performance is 5.50. Also: 220.0 J of heat is extracted from the freezer every cycle.
     (a) What is the room temperature outside the freezer?  
     (b) How much work does the freezer do in a cycle?
     (c) How much energy is delivered to the room every cycle.
