Solution

To calculate the change in internal energy (ΔU), we need to use the formula:

ΔU = nCvΔT

where: n = number of moles Cv = molar heat capacity at constant volume ΔT = change in temperature

Given: n = 1 mole Cv = 40 J/mol/K Initial temperature (T1) = 300 K Final temperature (T2) = 400 K

First, calculate the change in temperature:

ΔT = T2 - T1 ΔT = 400 K - 300 K ΔT = 100 K

Then, substitute the values into the formula for ΔU:

ΔU = nCvΔT ΔU = 1 mole * 40 J/mol/K * 100 K ΔU = 4000 J

So, the change in internal energy (ΔU) is 4000 J.
