A rigid and insulated tank of volume 2 m3 is divided into two equal compartments by a partition. One compartment contains an ideal gas at 400 K and 3 MPa, while the other compartment contains the same gas at 600 K and 1 MPa. The partition is punctured and the gases are allowed to mix. Determine the entropy change of the gas. The isobaric molar heat capacity of the gas is equal to (5/2)

Question

A rigid and insulated tank of volume 2 m3
is divided into two equal compartments by a
partition. One compartment contains an ideal gas at 400 K and 3 MPa, while the other
compartment contains the same gas at 600 K and 1 MPa. The partition is punctured and the
gases are allowed to mix. Determine the entropy change of the gas. The isobaric molar heat
capacity of the gas is equal to (5/2)
