a)n= 46 .69 moles

b)

c)W = 0

d)ΔU = 23 KJ

e)ΔT= 39.05 K

g)T₂= 339.05 K

P₂ = 5.65 atm

Explanation:

Given that

V₁=V₂ = 0.23 m³ = 230  L

T₁ = 300 K

P₁ = 5 atm        ( 1 atm =100 KPa)

Q = 23 KJ

The ideal gas equation

P V = n R T

P=Pressure  ,  V=Volume  ,  n= Number of moles  , T=Temperature

R=gas constant = 0.0821 atm.L/K.mol

P₁ V₁ = n R T₁

n= 46 .69 moles

Specific heat ;

The specific heat of the gas Cv

R=8.314 J / mol·K

We know that work done given as

W = P ΔV

ΔV =Change in volume ,P =pressure

here ΔV = 0

W = 0

First law of thermodynamics

Q= ΔU +W

Q= ΔU = 23 KJ

ΔU =Change in the internal energy

Q = n Cv ΔT

23 000 = 46.69 x 12.47 ΔT

ΔT= 39.05 K

Change in the temperature =39.05 K

T₂- 300 = 39.05 K

T₂= 339.05 K

P₂ = 5.65 atm
