In a closed container, one gram of water (1 cm3) is boiled under constant pressure of 1 atm (1.013 × 105 Pa) until it changes into steam. The heat of vaporization at this pressure is Lv = 2.256 × 106 J/kg = 2256 J/g. Assume that water vapor behaves like an ideal gas. The temperature of the steam is 373 K, number of moles of water vapor n = 0.0546 (g mol), the ideal gas constant R = 82.057 (cm3·atm/g...

Atmospheric Pressure: 0.996792499 atm → converted to psi → 14.64881 psi Use 12.0 cm for the internal diameter of the spherical vessel if you need it. Use 100 psig for T = 20 °C. (psig is the gauge pressure in psi, in contrast to the psia being the absolute pressure in psi.) Don't forget to convert the gauge pressure to the absolute pressure using the atmospheric-pressure data from the weather site. Calculate (1) the absolute pressure in psia and (2)...
