Question 2 4 pts
Inside a car that was at STP, a 0.95 L bottle warms up to 144 C. If the volume of the bottle
remains constant, what is the pressure, in atm, inside the hot water bottle?

1.53 atm

Explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Volume = constant

Initial pressure (P₁) = stp = 1 atm

Initial temperature (T₁) = 273 K

Final temperature (T₂) = 144 °C = 144 °C + 273 = 417 K

Final pressure (P₂) =?

Since the volume is constant, the final pressure can be obtained as follow:

P₁ / T₁ = P₂ / T₂

1 / 273 = P₂ / 417

Cross multiply

273 × P₂ = 417

Divide both side by 273

P₂ = 417 / 273

P₂ = 1.53 atm

Therefore, the final pressure (i.e the pressure inside the hot water bottle) is 1.53 atm.

the enthalpy of formation of water is given as -285.8kj/mol, which states that the enthalpy of formation is negative.

negative enthalpy of formation indicates that the heat is released during the reaction process. the heat is released from reaction to the surroundings the enthalpy is expressed with a negative sign with the energy given out in the reaction process.

the formation of water takes place by giving out heat which is -285.8 kj/mol.
