This is my very first post... :) I found some help here: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=277092 But I have a difficulty in sloving second and third part
The figure shows(check the link) a thermodynamic process followed by 1.90×10^−2 of hydrogen (link to the graph: http://tiny.cc/c9m0h
http://session.masteringphysics.com/problemAsset/1074025/3/knight_Figure_17_65.jpg
I get -50.7J for the work done on the gas which is right... now they want to calculate:
By how much does the thermal energy of the gas change?
AND
How much heat energy is transferred to the gas?
Please help me... I spent hours reading the textbook, but I still don't get it.
Eth=W+Q
pV=nRT
Q=nCdeltaT
By how much does the thermal energy of the gas change? After using above equations and
I get dalta T = 64.15859142 AND I get Eth=-15
For this question "How much heat energy is transferred to the gas?" the heat energy is what?
Please help me... Thank you
