Part 3

U -- Internal Energy (really, internal motion of molecules)

Q -- Heat (in calories)
W -- Work (in Joules) Note: 1000 cal = 4186 joules

First Law of Thermodynamics --> U = Q – W

8. The internal energy of a system decreases by 200J. If 50 J or work in done BY

the gas, how much energy is transferred as heat?

9. A sample of gas absorbs 4000 kJ of heat.

a. If volume remains constant, what is ΔU ?

b. Suppose that in addition to absorption of heat by the sample, the

surroundings does kJ of work on the sample, what is ΔU ?

c. Suppose that as the original sample absorbs heat, it expands

against atmospheric pressure and does 600 kJ of work on its
surroundings. What is ΔU ?
