A gas is allowed to expand, at constant temperature, from a volume of 1.0 L to 10.0 L against an external pressure of 0.50 atm. If the gas absorbs 250 J of heat from the surroundings, what are the values of q, w, and delta E?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

is delta e internal energy?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[q=\Delta U + w\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't know about the delta E. :(

OpenStudy (anonymous):

What is delta U?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

enthalpy

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[w=\int\limits_{V_i}^{V_f}PdV\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

\[w=nRT \ln \frac{V_f}{V_i}\]

OpenStudy (anonymous):

alright so delta u = zero and w=-q
