A mixture of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and oxygen exists in equilibrium in a cylindrical container fitted with a piston. The amount of oxygen in the mixture is 9.248 kg at this equilibrium state and the pressure is 1 bar (state 1). The cylinder is now cooled down at constant pressure until the temperature reaches 25 °C. At this new temperature there is 44.01 kg of only carbon dioxide present in the container (state 2). Determine a) the work done during this process, in kJ, and b) the heat transferred, in kJ. Note: make sure when you retrieve data from tables that you don't misinterpret commas separating the thousands as decimal commas!

Question
A mixture of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and oxygen exists in equilibrium in a cylindrical
container fitted with a piston. The amount of oxygen in the mixture is 9.248 kg at this equilibrium state
and the pressure is 1 bar (state 1). The cylinder is now cooled down at constant pressure until the
temperature reaches 25 °C. At this new temperature there is 44.01 kg of only carbon dioxide present
in the container (state 2). Determine
a)
the work done during this process, in kJ, and
b)
the heat transferred, in kJ.
Note: make sure when you retrieve data from tables that you don't misinterpret commas separating
the thousands as decimal commas!
