After burning, heat exchange occurs between helium and atmospheric. Hence, irreversible, isothermal process.
Consider a gas of triatomic molecules. The molecules are assumed to be triangular and made of massless rigid rods whose vertices are occupied by atoms. The internal energy of a mole of the gas at temperature T is:
Consider a gas of triatomic molecules. The molecules are assumed to be triangular and made of massless rigid rods whose vertices are occupied by atoms. The internal energy of a mole of the gas at temperature T is:
The internal energy of one mole of an ideal gas is given by U = (f/2)RT, where f is the number of degrees of freedom.
For a non-linear triatomic molecule (assumed to be a rigid rotator), there are:
3 translational degrees of freedom.
3 rotational degrees of freedom.
Vibrational modes are generally not c
