    Calculating Max Work from Reversible Cooling of Liquid

    Homework Statement One mole of a liquid with a constant molar heat capacity of 132 j/mol K is initially at a temp of 80 C. The heat capacity is independent of tempearture. Calculate the maximum work that could have been done onthe surroundings while cooling the liquid reversibly. The...

    Finding Work with constant pressure and temp.

    The conversion of propene (C3H6) to dichloromethane (CH2Cl2) takes place according to the reaction C3H6(g) + 3Cl2(g) 6 3CH2Cl2(g). At 298.15 K, the standard enthalpy change of this reaction is -306.98 kJ mol-1 and the standard enthalpy of formation of CH2Cl2(g) is -95.52 kJ mol-1...
