Work done by isothermal expansion of reaction vessel (changing moles)?
Temperature 298K, Original Volume 1L
Reaction: 3A-->5B 0.0627 mol of A originally --> Pi=1 atm 0.1044 mol of B finally --->Pf=2.55 atm I don't think you can simply use w=-nRTln(Pi/Pf) because number of moles is changing here. How would you solve this? |
