Gas Homework: Adiabatic/Isochoric/Isothermal Process
Yeah, I tried answering with both the rounded and not rounded intermediate and I noticed the difference too, but it still returned both answers as incorrect. Usually when just the sign is wrong it'll say so as well... I've been going off of an example in my book that is pretty much the same...- MeliMo

Solving for Entropy Change: Copper & Water
Homework Statement A 500 g copper block at 80 C is dropped into 1.0 kg of water at 10 C. Find the entropy change of the system. Homework Equations dS= integral of dQ/T The Attempt at a Solution I found that the final equilibrium temperature is 290 K using the equation...- MeliMo

Gas Homework: Adiabatic/Isochoric/Isothermal Process
Homework Statement A 26-L sample of an ideal gas with (gamma)= 1.67 is at 250 K and 50 kPa . The gas is compressed adiabatically until its pressure triples, then cooled at constant volume back to 250 K, and finally allowed to expand isothermally to its original state. Homework...- MeliMo
