Please sol!!!!!!!:?!!
A rigid, insulating tank with a volume of
4 m3, divided into two unequal parts
by a thin membrane. While one side of
the membrane, representing 1/3 of the
tank, contains 6 bar and 373.15 K
nitrogen gas, the other side,
representing 2/3 of the tank, is
evacuated. The membrane ruptures
and gas fills the tank.
a) What is the final temperature of the
gas? How much work is done? Can the
process be reversed?
b) How much work is done for a
reversible process in which the gas can
be returned to its initial state?
Make the ideal gas assumption for
nitrogen and take cp = 7/2 R and cv =
5/2 R.
