Consider 0.65 kg of N2 at 300 K, 1 bar contained in a rigid tank connected by a valve to another rigid tank holding 0.3 kg of CO2 at 300
K, 1 bar. The valve is opened and gases are allowed to mix, achieving an equilibrium state at 290 K.
Determine:
(a) the volume of each tank, in m³.
(b) the final pressure, in bar.
(c) the magnitude of the heat transfer to or from the gases during the process, in kJ.
(d) the entropy change of each gas and of the overall system, in kJ/K.
A gas mixture with a molar analysis of 40% CH4 (methane) and 60% air enters a control volume operating at steady state at location 1
with a mass flow rate of 5 kg/min, as shown in the figure below. Air enters as a separate stream at 2 and dilutes the mixture. A single
stream exits with a mole fraction of methane of 5%. Assume air has a molar analysis of 21% O2 and 79% N2.
