Water is being heated in a closed pan on top of a range while being stirred by a paddle wheel. During the process, 30 kJ of heat is transferred to the water, and 5 kJ of heat is lost to the surrounding air. The paddle-wheel work amounts to 500 N·m. Determine the final energy of the system if its initial energy is 12.5 kJ.

A piston–cylinder device initially contains 1.4 kg of refrigerant-134a at 100 kPa and 20°C. Heat is now transferred to the refrigerant from a source at 150°C, and the piston, which is resting on a set of stops, starts moving when the pressure inside reaches 120 kPa. Heat transfer continues until the temperature reaches 80°C. Assuming the surroundings to be at 25°C and 100 kPa, determine the heat transfer.
A 2-ft3 rigid tank contains saturated refrigerant- 134a at 160 psia. Initially, 5 percent of the volume is occupied by liquid and the rest by vapor. A valve at the top of the tank is now opened, and vapor is allowed to escape slowly from the tank. Heat is transferred to the refrigerant such that the pressure inside the tank remains constant. The valve is closed when the last drop of liquid in the tank is vaporized. Determine the total heat transfer for this process.
A 0.75-m3rigid tank initially contains air whose density is 1.18 kg/m3 The tank is connected to a high-pressure supply line through a valve. The valve is opened, and air is allowed to enter the tank until the density in the tank rises to 4.95 kg/m3. Determine the mass of. air that has entered the tank.
A heat-insulated (adiabatic) constant volume vessel divided by a metal curtain. The volume of the compartments is not equal!. Initially, one of the chambers contains 2.5 kg of compressed s-phase water at a temperature of 60 °C and a pressure of 600 kPa. The other chamber is empty (vacuum). Then the metal curtain is lifted and the water covers the entire volume. Since the final pressure is 10 kPa, calculate the volume of the container and the final temperature of the water
A student living in a 4 - m 5 - m 3 - m dormitory room turns on her 100 - W fan before she leaves the room on a summer day, hoping that the room will be cooler when she comes back in the evening. Assuming all the windows are tightly closed and disregarding any heat transfer through the walls and the windows, determine the temperature in the room when she comes back 8 h later. Use specific heat values at room temperature, and assume the room to be at 100 kPa and 20 ° C in the morning when she leaves.

An inventor claims to have devised a process using only saturated steam at 100C which by a complicated series of steps, make heat continuously available at T of 177C. He claims further that, for every kilogram of steam taken into the process, 1800 kJ of energy as heat is liberated at this higher T of 177C. Show whether or not such a process is possible. In order to give the inventor the benefit of any doubt, assume cooling water to be available in unlimited quantity at 0C. topic: introduction to chemical engineerint thermodynamics
