In each of A-C, below, indicate whether: a) the statement is possible under the laws of thermodynamics; b) the statement violates the First Law; c) the statement violates the Second Law. In the case of a Second Law violation, circle the name of the scientist whose version of the second law is most simply and obviously broken. In each case there is a best name, but feel free to explain your choice. (Adapted from Bill Reinhardt.) A. A novel and reversible heat engine absorbs 10 kJ of energy from a high temperature bath, performs 8 kJ of work on the surroundings, and exhausts 5 kJ of heat into a low temperature heat bath.
a. possible
b. violates First Law
c. violates Second Law: Kelvin Clausius Boltzmann
B. One night you wake up to discover that all the air in your room has gone under your bed. Note that this happens with no change in energy or temperature.
a. possible
b. violates First Law
c. violates Second Law: Kelvin Clausius Boltzmann
C. A novel & reversible heat engine absorbs 10 kJ of energy from a low temperature reservoir, performs 8 kJ of work on the surroundings, and exhausts 2 kJ of energy into a high temperature bath.
a. possible
b. violates First Law
c. violates Second Law: Kelvin Clausius Boltzmann

Liquid from a brewery fermentation contains 10% ethanol and 90% water. part of the fermentation product (50,000 kg/h) is pumped to a distillation column on the factory site. under current operating conditions, a distillate of 45% ethanol and 55% water is produced from the top of the column at a rate of one-tenth that of the feed. what is the composition of the waste "bottoms" from the still?

Suppose a pair of chemical compounds a and b can react in two different ways: a + b -> c reaction 1 gives product c. a + b -> d reaction 2 gives product d. the following facts are known about the two reactions: . reaction 1 is endothermic and reaction 2 is exothermic. if a reaction vessel is charged (filled) with a and b , then at first d is produced faster than c. use these facts to sketch a qualitative reaction energy diagram for both reactions. note: because these sketches are only qualitative, the energies don? t have to be exact. they only have to have the right relationship to each other. for example, if one energy is less than another, that fact should be clear in your sketch.
