A mass of 10 g of oxygen fill a weighted piston–cylinder device at 20 kPa and 110°C. The device is now cooled until the temperature is 0°C. Determine the change of the volume of the device during this cooling.

Answer:

The change of the volume of the device during this cooling is [tex]14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3[/tex]

Explanation:

Given that,

Mass of oxygen = 10 g

Pressure = 20 kPa

Initial temperature = 110°C

Final temperature = 0°C

We need to calculate the change of the volume of the device during this cooling

Using formula of change volume

[tex]\Delta V=V_{2}-V_{1}[/tex]

[tex]\Delta V=\dfrac{mR}{P}(T_{2}-T_{1})[/tex]

Put the value into the formula

[tex]\Delta V=\dfrac{0.3125\times0.0821}{2.0265\times10^{9}}(383-273)[/tex]

[tex]\Delta V=14.297\ L[/tex]

[tex]\Delta V=14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3[/tex]

Hence, The change of the volume of the device during this cooling is [tex]14.3\times10^{-3}\ m^3[/tex]
