Question

Consider a mixture of air and gasoline vapour in a cylinder with a piston. The original volume is 40 cm3.
If combustion of this mixture releases 950J of energy, to what volume will the gas(in L) expands against
a constant pressure of 5 bar if all the energy of combustion is converted into work to push back piston.

Answer 1

Answer:

Consider a mixture of air and gasoline vapor in a cylinder with a piston. The original volume is 40. cm^3. If the combustion of this mixture releases 950. J of energy, to what volume will the gases expand against a constant pressure of 650. torr if all the energy of combustion is converted into work to push back the piston?
