    QUESTION 1 Solution: Mark [Sub

    total] a) In the system undergoing adiabatic expansion, all the work done must come through the lowering of U, and therefore of the temperature. By contrast, some of the work done in the isothermal expansion can come at the expense of the heat that has flowed across the boundary between the system and surroundings.

    [4]

    b) i) q is positive because heat flows across the system-surrounding boundary into the system. ii) w is negative because the vaporizing water does work on the surroundings (expansion). (w = PV) iii) U is positive because the temperature increases and some of the liquid is vaporized. (U = nCp,mT)

    [6] b) i) In the 90Sr decay (1st decay), the mass defect is: m = (mass 90Y + mass e) mass 90Sr = [(89.907152 amu + 5.4857 104 amu) 89.907738 amu] = 3.743 105 amu AND 5 29 32

    231 g( 3.743 10 amu) 6.216 10 g 6.216 10 kg

    6.022 10 amu = = =

    The energy change is given by: E = (m)c2 = (6.126 1032 kg)(3.00 108 m/s)2 = 5.59 1015 kg m2/s2 = 5.59 1015 J

    1

    [3]

  • Page 10 of 11

    Similarly, for the 90Y decay (2nd decay), we have m = (mass 90Zr + mass e) mass 90Y = [(89.904703 amu 104 amu) 89.907152 amu] = 1.900 103 amu AND

    1 g( 1.900 10 amu) 3.156 10 g 3.156 10 kg6.022 10 amu

    = = =

    and the energy change is: E = (3.156 1030 kg)(3.00 108 m/s)2 = 2.84 1013 J

    ii) This calculation requires that we know the rate constant for the decay. From the half-life, we can calculate .

    10.693 0.693 0.0247 yr 28.1 yr

    = = =t

    To calculate the number of moles of 90Sr decaying in a year, we apply the following equation:

    ntn

    =dd

    =tn

    n tnn 0to

    dd1

    no = number of atoms present at time 0. nt = number of atoms present at time t. [ ] [ ]tonn tn dln to =

    tln

    0ln = t

    Nt

    N

    1ln (0.0247 yr )(1.00 yr)1.00

    = x

    where x is the number of moles of 90Sr nuclei left over. Solving, we obtain: x = 0.976 mol 90Sr Thus the number of moles of nuclei which decay in a year is (1.00 0.976) mol = 0.024 mol

    2

    1

    1

    1

    [5]

  • Page 11 of 11

    This is a reasonable number since it takes 28.1 years for 0.5 mole of 90Sr to decay. iii)

    Since the halflife of 90Y is much shorter than that of 90Sr, we can safely assume that all the 90Y formed from 90Sr will be converted to 90Zr. The energy changes calculated in part (i) refer to the decay of individual nuclei. In 0.024 mole, the number of nuclei that have decayed is:

    23226.022 10 nuclei0.024 mol 1.4 10 nuclei

    1 mol

    =

    Realize that there are two decay processes occurring, so we need to add the energy released for each process calculated in part (i). Thus, the heat released from 1 mole of Sr 90 waste in a year is given by: The energy released in the above two decays is 5.59 1015 J (1st decay) and 2.84 1013 J (2nd decay). The total amount of energy released is: (5.59 1015 J) + (2.84 1013 J) = 2.90 1013 J.

    1322 2.90 10 J(1.4 10 nuclei)

    1 nucleus

    = = =9 6heat released 4.06 10 J 4.06 10 kJ

    This amount is roughly equivalent to the heat generated by burning 50 tons of coal! Although the heat is released slowly during the course of a year, effective ways must be devised to prevent heat damage to the storage containers and subsequent leakage of radioactive material to the surroundings.
