A rigid tank contains 65.5 g of chlorine gas (Cl2) at a temperature of 73 °C and an absolute pressure of 5.60 × 105 Pa. Later, the temperature of the tank has dropped to 33 °C and, due to a leak, the pressure has dropped to 3.50 × 105 Pa. How many grams of chlorine gas have leaked out of the tank? (The mass per mole of Cl2 is 70.9 g/mol.) Answer in grams. Please provide a detailed answer. Thank...

A frictionless piston-cylinder device and a rigid tank contain 3.3 kg of neon gas at the same temperature, pressure and volume. Now heat is transferred, and the temperature of both systems is increased by 10 degrees C. The amount of extra heat that must be supplied to neon gas in the cylinder that is maintained at constant pressure is ...

Sixty pounds of carbon dioxide gas are contained in a 100-ft3 rigid, insulated vessel initially at 4 atm. An electric resistor of negligible mass transfers energy to the gas at a constant rate of 12 Btu/s for 40 seconds. Use the ideal gas model and ignore the effects of motion and gravity. Let To = 70°F, po = 1 atm. -Determine the change in exergy of the gas, in Btu.

3. One mole of CO is initially contained on one-half of a well-insulated, rigid tank. Its temperature is 500K. The other half of the tank is initially at vacuum. A diaphragm separates the two compartments. Each compartment has a volume of 1L. Suddenly, the diaphragm ruptures. Use the van der Waals equation for any non-ideal behavior. Answer the following questions: (a) What is Cv,m at the initial state? (b) Do you expect the temperature to increase, decrease, or remain constant....

(10 pts) A 10 m3 rigid storage tank contains oxygen gas (R = 0.2598 kJ/kg.K, cp = 0.918 kJ/kg.K, cv = 0.658 kJ/kg.K). The tank is initially 200 kPa and 600o It is cooled to 25oC in 35 minutes. Determine: (3 pts) The mass of oxygen in the tank, in kg. (3 pts) The final pressure in the tank, in kPa. (4 pts) The rate of heat transfer from the oxygen, in kW.

A rigid tank, with a volume of 25 L, contains nitrogen at 355 K and 1.2 MPa. The tank is then cooled to 120 K. What work has been done and the heat transferred in this process? Data: Cv = 0.745 kJ/kgK, Cp = 1.042 kJ/kgK, MM(N2)=28 g/mol, R = 8.314 m^3 Pa/molK. Use the ratio PV = nRT to determine the amount of nitrogen contained in the tank.

A closed, rigid steel tank contains 1 lbm of water, initially at 260 F and a quality of 60%. The tank is fitted with a paddle wheel and the water is stirred until the temperature is 350 F. The tank is well insulated on the outside and the steel is in thermal equilibrium with the water. The mass of the steel tank itself (not including water) is 60 lbm and the specific heat of the tank is 0.115 Btu/lbm·R. Changes...
