A 1-m3 tank containing air at 10°C and 350 kPa is connected through a valve to another tank containing 3 kg of air at 35°C and 150 kPa. Now the valve is opened, and the entire system is allowed to reach thermal equilibrium with the surroundings, which are at 19.5°C. Determine the volume of the second tank and the final equilibrium pressure of air. The gas constant of air is R = 0.287 kPa·m3/kg·K.

Answer:

V₂=1.76 m³

P=222.03 KPa

Explanation:

Given that

For tank 1

V₁=1 m³

T₁= 10°C = 283 K

P₁=350 KPa

For tank 2

m₂=3 kg

T₂=35°C = 308 K

P₂=150 KPa

We know that for air

P V = m R T

P=pressure ,V= Volume,R= gas constant ,T= temperature ,m =mass

for tank 2

P₂ V₂ = m₂ R T₂

By putting the values

150 x V₂ = 3 x 0.287 x 308

V₂=1.76 m³

Final mass = m₁+m₂

m =m₁+m₂

The final volume V= V₂+V₁

V= 1.76 + 1 m³

V= 2.76 m³

The final temperature T= 19.5°C

T= 292.5 K

[tex]m=\dfrac{PV}{RT}[/tex]

[tex]m_1=\dfrac{P_1V_1}{RT_1}[/tex]

[tex]m_1=\dfrac{350\times 1}{0.287\times 283}[/tex]

[tex]m_1=4.3\ kg[/tex]

m =m₁+m₂

m =4.3 + 3 = 7.3 kg

Now at final state

P V = m R T

P x 2.76 = 7.3 x 0.287 x 292.5

P=222.03 KPa
