As shown in the figure below, a closed, rigid tank fitted with a fine-wire electric resistor is filled with Refrigerant 22, initially at -10°C, a quality of 80%, and a volume of 0.01 m³. A 12-volt battery provides a 5-amp current to the resistor for 6 minutes. Refrigerant 22 T₁=-10°C x₁ = 80% V=0.01 m³ Resistor 12-volt battery provides a 5-amp current. If the final temperature of the refrigerant is 50°C, determine the heat transfer, in kJ, from the refrigerant to its surroundings.

Question
As shown in the figure below, a closed, rigid tank fitted with a fine-wire electric resistor is filled with Refrigerant 22, initially at -10°C, a
quality of 80%, and a volume of 0.01 m³. A 12-volt battery provides a 5-amp current to the resistor for 6 minutes.
Refrigerant 22
T₁ = -10°C
x₁ = 80%
V = 0.01 m³
Resistor
10000000000
12-volt battery provides a
5-amp current.
If the final temperature of the refrigerant is 50°C, determine the heat transfer, in kJ, from the refrigerant to its surroundings.
