0.25kg/s of Catbon Dioxide (R 0.1889 kJ/kg-K, k 1.289) undergo a certain process in a close
system from initial volume and temperature of 268cm' and 134K to a final volume and temperature
of 804cm' and 402K respectively. From the data given, perform necessary analysis in determining
the type of process to further solve the following questions as follow:
a. Work done by/on the system (kJ/s)
b. Change in Entropy (kW/K)
c. Heat added/rejected by the system (kJ/s)
The initial state of 1.00 mol of a dilute gas is P1 = 3.00 atm, V1 = 1.00 L, and Eint 1 = 456 J and
its final state is P2 = 2.00 atm, V2 = 3.00 L, and Eint2 = 912 J. The gas is first cooled at constant
volume until it reaches its final pressure. It is then allowed to expand at constant pressure until it
reaches its final volume. (a) Illustrate this process on a PV diagram and calculate the work done by
the gas. (b) Find the heat absorbed by the gas during this process.
An ideal gas is adiabatically expanded along path AB from a temperature
T=500 K to 300 K, and then isochorically heated along a path BC back to
T=500 K.
(i) Draw a pressure-volume diagram for this process and show that the ratio of
pressures at points A and C obeys
