1. Butane (MW=58), is a type of hydrocarbon commonly used as fuel for portable stoves. The gas is held in a 20 Liter cylindrical container. Butane is stored initially at a pressure of 15 bar and at room temperature of 30°C. If the pressure limit for the container, (also known as bursting pressure) is 120 bar, determine the maximum temperature allowed (in Kelvin) for the gas inside, also, determine the mass (in kg) of butane.

2. An ideal gas (the weight is m kg) in an idealized piston-cylinder assembly undergoes a series of processes from state 1 to states 2, 3 and 4. Each state is at equilibrium. The gas can be modeled as a closed system. Ignore changes of KE and PE. The states are fixed by the following properties in the table: State 1 2 3 4 8 7 9 Note: State 1 to 2 is a constant-temperature process. State 2-3 is a constant-volume process.

* Your answer is incorrect. Water contained in a piston-cylinder assembly, initially at 300°F, a quality of 80%, and a volume of 6 ft3, is heated at constant temperature to saturated vapor. If the rate of heat transfer is 0.3 Btu/s, determine the time, in min, for this process of the water to occur. Kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible. At = i 5.217 min
