A piston–cylinder assembly contains 2 lb of water, initially at 100 lbf/in.2 and 500°F. The water undergoes two processes in series: a constant-pressure process followed by a constant volume process. At the end of the constant-volume process, the temperature is 300°F and the water is a two-phase liquid–vapor mixture with a quality of 60%. Neglect kinetic and potential energy effects.

I have some things that need clarification based on the answer provided to this question. Firstly, the h1 value came out as 154.99 kJ/Kg for me not 153.318. Also, the values taken from the steam table for Vf and Vg for 5 degrees celcius and 6 degrees are different from what is on the steam table, I have attached a picture for this. For 5 degrees on the steam table it shows Vf as 0.00100008 and Vg as 147.011 and for 6 degrees it shows Vf as 0.00100011 and Vg as 137.633. Please clarify this and reply as soon as possible. Thanks

The molar heat capacities of substances varies with temperature. The general function for determining the molar heat capacity is given below; Cp m = (a + bT + cT 2 )R . In case of a gas where a = 3.245, b = 7.108 x10^ -4 K ^-1 , and c = -4.06 x10 ^-8 K^ -2 for temperatures in the range of 800 Kelvins to 1,500 Kelvins. What is the change in the enthalpy (in KiloJoules per Kelvin per mole) for two moles of this gas at 1,500 kelvins? NOTE: Express answer in THREE SIGNIFICANT FIGURES.

Air is contained within a piston-cylinder assembly The cross sectional area of the piston is 0.01 m². Initially the piston is at 1 bar and 25°C, 10 cm above the base of the cylinder. In this state, the spring exerts no force on the piston. The system is then reversibly heated to 100°C. As the spring is compressed, it exerts a force on the piston according to: F=-kx where k= 50,000 N/m and x is the displacement length from its uncompressed position. Determine the work done.
