work of 2550 j is done on an ideal gas, but the internal energy increases by only 1500 j. what is the amount and direction of heat flow into or out of the system? the amount of heat flow is

Respuesta :

The amount of heat flow out of the system if a work of 2550 j is done on an ideal gas, but the internal energy increases by only 1500 j is - 1050 J

ΔU = Q + W

ΔU = Change in energy

Q = Heat

W = Work done

W = 2550 J

ΔU = + 1500 J

Positive because it is mentioned that internal energy increases.

Q = ΔU - W

Q = 1500 - 2550

Q = - 1050 J

Here the amount of heat flow is 1050 J. Since it is negative heat flows out of the system. If the value of Q is positive, then the heat flow is into the system.

Therefore, the amount of heat flow is 1050 J out of the system.
