Five moles of a monatomic ideal gas in a cylinder at 27 °C is expanded isothermally from a volume of 5 L to 10 L. (a) What is the change in internal energy? (b) How much work was done on the gas in the process? (c) Howmuch heat was transferred to the gas?
This problem compares the energy output and heat transfer to the environment by two different types of nuclear power stations-one with the normal efficiency of 32.16N%, and
another with an improved efficiency of 43.521%). Suppose both have the same heat transfer into the engine in one day, 3.29 x 1014J.
a) How much more electrical energy is produced by the more efficient power station?
JI
b) How much less heat transfer occurs to the environment by the more efficient power station? (One type of more efficient nuclear power station, the gas-cooled reactor, has not been
reliable enough to be economically feasible in spite of its greater efficiency.)
