Carbon dioxide (CO₂) fills a closed, rigid tank fitted with a paddle wheel, initially at 80°F, 50 lb/in², and a volume of 1.6 ft³. The gas is stirred until its temperature is 500°F. During this process heat transfer from the gas to its surroundings occurs in an amount 2.6 Btu. Assume ideal gas behavior, but do not assume constant specific heats. Kinetic and potential energy effects can be ignored. Determine the mass of the carbon dioxide, in lb, and the work, in Btu.

Argon (molar mass 40 kg/kmol) compresses reversibly in an adiabatic system from 5 bar, 25 0C to a volume of 0.2 m3. If the initial volume occupied was 0.9 m3, calculate the work input in MJ to 3 decimal places. Assume nitrogen to be a perfect gas and take cv = 0.3122 k J / k g K.
A vertical cylinder is fitted with a freely-moveable piston of 0.2 m diameter and contains 0.1 kg of (liquid) water. At the initial State 1, the water remains in equilibrium as saturated liquid at 15 "C with the piston applying a pressure of 7.0 bar on the water in the cylinder. The water is then slowly heated until the piston rises to a height of 0.6 m above its initial position to reach the equiliorium at State 2. The piston is now held fixed at this location and the cylinder contents are further heated to increase its pressure to 15 bar at State 3. (a) Find the volume of water at State 1. (b) Show that the cylinder contains saturated (wet) steam at State 2 and determine its dryness fraction at this state. (c) Find the steam temperature at State 3. On a T-v diagram, indicate the process undergone by the contents of the cylinder from State 1 to State 3.
A rigid, well-insulated tank contains a two-phase mixture of ammonia with 0.0022 ft³ of saturated liquid and 1.5 ft3 of saturated vapor, initially at p₁ = 70 lb/in². A paddle wheel stirs the mixture until only saturated vapor at higher pressure, p2, remains in the tank. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. Determine the pressure p2, in lb/in², and the amount of energy transfer by work, in Btu. Step 1 * Your answer is incorrect. Determine p2, in lb/in². P2= i81.56 lb/in²
Carbon dioxide (molar mass 44 kg/kmol) expands reversibly in a perfectly thermally insulated cylinder from 3.7 bar, 220 0C to a volume of 0.085 m3. If the initial volume occupied was 0.02 m3, calculate the final pressure in bar to 3 decimal places. Assume nitrogen to be a perfect gas and take cv = 0.63 k J / k g K.
Five kilograms of a two-phase liquid-vapor mixture of water initially at 300\deg C and x1 = 0.5 is heated from the initial state to a saturated vapor state while the volume remains constant. The process is brought about by heat transfer from a thermal reservoir at 380\deg C. The temperature of the water at the location where the heat transfer occurs is 380\deg C.Let To = 300 K, Po = 1 bar, and ignore the effects of motion and gravity.
