1. For the internal energy U = U(,), (a) Derive the differential du as a function of and du = d + d (b) Evaluate ( ) for an ideal gas, and modify the equation for du accordingly, showing that, for an ideal gas, U is a function of only. ( ) = 0 for an ideal gas, and ( ) = C. hus, U = C ( 2 1 ) (c) Evaluate ( ) for the van der Waals equation of state. P = R m b a = ( ) P 2 m P = a 2 m (d) Derive an expression for the change in internal energy in compressing a van der Waals gas from an initial molar volume, m,i to a final molar volume, m,f at constant temperature. U,m = m,f m,i m,f U,m = d m m,i [ ] m,f [ a 1 1 d m 2 m = a = a 1 ] m m,i m,i m,f (e) By comparing parts (b) and (d), explain whether or not U,m will be zero for a gas and why? At constant temperature, U = 0 for an ideal gas because U,m = C 0 ( 2 1 ) but that will not be true for the van der Waals gas because U,m is a function of volume.

3. (a) One mole of an ideal gas at is reversibly and isothermally compressed from a volume of 25.0 L to a volume of 10.0 L. Because it is very large, the temperature of the thermal water bath resevoir in the surroundings remains essentially constant at during the process. Calculate S, S surroundings, and S total. Because this is an isothermal and reversible process: U = 0, and q reversible = w q reversible = w = nr f i d = nr ln f i q reversible = 1.00 mol 8.314 J mol 1 K 1 ln 10.0 L 25.0 L = -2.285 103 J he entropy change of the system is given by: S = dqreversible = q reversible = -2.285 103 J = -7.62 J K 1 he entropy change of the surroundings is given by: S surroundings = q surroundings = q system = 2.285 103 J = 7.62 J K 1 he total change in entropy is given by S total = S + S surroundings = -7.62 J K 1 +7.62 J K 1 = 0
(b) One mole of an ideal gas at is isothermally compressed at constant external pressure equal to the final pressure in Part (a). At the end of the process, P = P external, and because of this, the process is irreversibe at all but the final state. he initial and final volumes are, respectively, 25.0 L and 10.0 L, and the temperature of the surroundings is. Calculate S, S surroundings, and S total. Determine the direction of spontaneous change, i.e. either compression or expansion, and provide a reason for your answer. First calculate the external pressure P external = nr = 1 mol 8.314 J mol 1 K 1 10 L 1 m3 10 3 L = 2.494 10 5 Pa and the initial pressure of the system P initial = nr = 1 mol 8.314 J mol 1 K 1 25 L 1 m3 10 3 L = 9.977 10 4 Pa Because P external > P initial, the direction of spontaneous change will be the compression of the gas to smaller volume. Because this is an isothermal and irreversible process: U = 0, and q = w and q = w = P external ( f i ) = 2.494 10 5 Pa (10.0 10 3 m 3 25.0 10 3 m 3 ) = -3.741 10 3 J he entropy change of the system must be calculated by a reversible path and has the same value as obtained in part (a): S = dqreversible = q reversible = -2.285 103 J = -7.62 J K 1 he entropy change of the surroundings is given by S surroundings = q surroundings = q = 3.741 103 J = 12.47 J K 1 S total = S + S surroundings = -7.62 J K 1 +12.47 J K 1 = 4.85 J K 1 It can be seen that S < 0 and S surroundings > 0 confirming that the entropy of an isolated system always increases.
