The insulated vessel shown below has two compartments separated by a membrane. On one side is 1 kg of steam at 400°C and 200 bar. The other side is evacuated. The membrane ruptures, filling the entire volume. The final pressure is 100 bar. Determine the entropy change for this process. (In each state of your calculations, state your reasoning clearly.)

compartments is removed and the system is allowed to reach
equilibrium. What is the entropy generation?

Two insulated containers are connected through an insulated line
and a valve that is closed. Both sides contain 1 kg of steam but
the left side is at 300 °C while the right side is at 200 °C. The
valve is opened, allowing both sides to mix and reach a common
temperature and pressure.
a) Is this process reversible?
b) What is the final pressure and temperature of the steam, if the
steam is treated as an ideal gas?

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....

An insulated box is separated by insulation partition into two
parts, which is occupied by Ar (ideal gas, 1 mol, 300 K, 100 kPa)
and N2 (ideal gas, 2 mol, 400 K, 200 kPa) respectively.
a) Find the final temperature after the partition is
removed.
b) Find the S of mixing after the partition is removed.
[Hint: The mixing process can be divided to two parts:
constant-volume process and isothermal process.

A gas is confined to a sub-volume V1 in an insulated rigid
container. The container has an adjoining sub-volume V2, initially
evacuated(vacuumed), which can be connected to V1 by opening a
valve. V1=V2. Suppose the valve is opened and the gas flows out of
V2, filling the entire volume V1+V2. Assume the specific gas
constant is R.
a)Calculate the work done by the gas in this expansion.
b) Calculate the change in internal energy of the gas.

Air is contained in a rigid, well-insulated container
of volume 3 m3. The air undergoes a process from
an initial state with a pressure of 200 kPa and temperature of 300
K. During the process, the air
receives 720 kJ of work from a paddle wheel. Model the air as an
ideal gas with constant specific
heats. Evaluate the specific heats at 300 K. Neglect changes in
kinetic energy and potential energy.
Determine the mass of the air in kg,...
