Assignment 1 M.M 20

1. Show that the work done in isothermal expansion reversibly is greater in magnitude than the work done in one step (irreversible) and vice versa for isothermal compression graphically. [3] 2. Why the work done in isothermal expansion is greater than the work done in adiabatic expansion if a) Final volumes are same b) Final Pressures are same [3]

3. An ideal monatomic gas (Cv,m=1.5R) initially at 298 K and 1.013MPa pressure expands adiabatically and irreversibly until it is in equilibrium with a constant external pressure of 0.1013 MPa. What is the final temperature of gas? [4] 4. 10g of ice is heated to become Vapor at 373K and 101.325kPa. Calculate S for the
H H system. Given that fusion of ice at 273K =334.72J g-1 and vap 0f water at 373 K= -1 -1 -1 2259.36 J g and average Heat capacity of liquid water =4.184 J K g [3]

5. Derive the phase rule for a system in which three compounds are missing from the phase number 1,Five components are missing from phase number 2 and six components are missing from phase number 3 at a given pressure and temperature. [4] 6. Draw the phase diagram of water. Explain how skaters skate on ice using this diagram. Write degree of freedom at triple point, melting curve, boiling curve and sublimation curves and also in the region. [3]
