The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem of calculating the heat required to raise the temperature of 2 moles of rock salt from 10 K to 50 K using Debye's T³ law, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Write the expression for heat capacity According to Debye's T³ law, the molar heat capacity \( C \) is given by: \[ C = \frac{k T^3}{\theta^3} \] where \( k = 1940 \, \text{J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1} \) and \( \theta = 281 \, \text{K} \). ### Step 2: Set up the heat transfer equation The heat \( dQ \) required to change the temperature by an infinitesimal amount \( dT \) is given by: \[ dQ = n C \, dT \] where \( n \) is the number of moles. For our case, \( n = 2 \) moles. ### Step 3: Substitute for \( C \) Substituting the expression for \( C \) into the heat transfer equation: \[ dQ = n \left( \frac{k T^3}{\theta^3} \right) dT \] Thus, \[ dQ = 2 \left( \frac{1940 T^3}{281^3} \right) dT \] ### Step 4: Integrate to find total heat \( Q \) To find the total heat required to raise the temperature from \( T_1 = 10 \, \text{K} \) to \( T_2 = 50 \, \text{K} \), we integrate: \[ Q = \int_{T_1}^{T_2} dQ = \int_{10}^{50} 2 \left( \frac{1940 T^3}{281^3} \right) dT \] This simplifies to: \[ Q = \frac{2 \cdot 1940}{281^3} \int_{10}^{50} T^3 \, dT \] ### Step 5: Calculate the integral The integral of \( T^3 \) is: \[ \int T^3 \, dT = \frac{T^4}{4} \] Thus, \[ \int_{10}^{50} T^3 \, dT = \left[ \frac{T^4}{4} \right]_{10}^{50} = \frac{50^4}{4} - \frac{10^4}{4} \] Calculating \( 50^4 \) and \( 10^4 \): \[ 50^4 = 6250000 \quad \text{and} \quad 10^4 = 10000 \] So, \[ \int_{10}^{50} T^3 \, dT = \frac{6250000 - 10000}{4} = \frac{6249000}{4} = 1562250 \] ### Step 6: Substitute back to find \( Q \) Now substituting back into the equation for \( Q \): \[ Q = \frac{2 \cdot 1940}{281^3} \cdot 1562250 \] Calculating \( 281^3 \): \[ 281^3 = 22196161 \] Thus, \[ Q = \frac{3880 \cdot 1562250}{22196161} \] Calculating this gives: \[ Q \approx 273 \, \text{J} \] ### Final Answer The heat required to raise the temperature of 2 moles of rock salt from 10 K to 50 K is approximately \( 273 \, \text{J} \). ---
