A piston-cylinder device contains 1 kg of hydrogen gas at 1600 kPa and 1327°C. Hydrogen gas is now
allowed to cool at constant pressure until the temperature drops to 127°C. This is then followed by a
second process in which the gas undergoes a constant volume process to a pressure of 400 kPa. In the
final process, the gas is compressed in an isothermal process to a pressure of 1000 kPa. Using the gas
constant, R of 4.12 kJ/kg.K for hydrogen,
i. Determine the volume for all the states (m³)
ii. Show and label all the processes on a P-V diagram.
iii. Determine the mass of the air in your bedroom (kg).
iv. Can the temperature and volume of the air in your bedroom be used to determine all the other
properties of the air in your bedroom. Provide a brief explanation for your answer.

An insulated rigid tank is divided into two equal parts by a partition. Initially, one part contains 4 kg of an ideal gas at 800 kPa and 50°C, and the other part is evacuated. The partition is now removed, and the gas expands into the entire tank. Determine the final temperature and pressure in the tank.
