A mass of 6.7 kg of steam is contained within a piston-cylinder assembly. The steam undergoes an expansion from its initial state with e1 = 2617.6 kJ/kg to its final state with e2 = 2506.2 kJ/kg. During the process there is a heat transfer of 72 kJ to the steam. Also, a paddle wheel does 33 kJ of work on the steam. Calculate the amount of work (kJ) done by the steam on the piston during the process. Please show all work

Question

A mass of 6.7 kg of steam is contained within a piston-cylinder assembly. The steam
undergoes an expansion from its initial state with e1 = 2617.6 kJ/kg to its final state
with e2 = 2506.2 kJ/kg. During the process there is a heat transfer of 72 kJ to the
steam. Also, a paddle wheel does 33 kJ of work on the steam. Calculate the amount
of work (kJ) done by the steam on the piston during the process.
