1. Two tanks are connected by a valve. Tank A contains 2 kg of carbon monoxide gas at 77°C and 0.7 bar. Tank B holds 8 kg of the same gas at 27°C and 1.2 bar. Then the valve is opened and the gases are allowed to mix while receiving energy via heat transfer from the surrounding. The final equilibrium temperature is found to be 42°C. Determine (a) the final pressure (b) the amount of heat transfer. Also state your assumption. [P=105 kPa, Q = +37.25 kJ] %3D

1. Two tanks are connected by a valve. Tank A contains 2 kg of carbon
monoxide gas at 77°C and 0.7 bar. Tank B holds 8 kg of the same gas
at 27°C and 1.2 bar. Then the valve is opened and the gases are allowed
to mix while receiving energy via heat transfer from the surrounding.
The final equilibrium temperature is found to be 42°C. Determine (a)
the final pressure (b) the amount of heat transfer. Also state your
assumption.
[P,=105 kPa, Q = +37.25 kJ]
