Two Insulated cylinders A and B with volumes VA 1.2 m³ and VB 6.4 m³ contain chlorine gas at different pressures and temperatures. The cylinders are insulated (no heat is lost to or gained from the outside) and connected by a valve. Initially, the valve is closed and the gas in the two cylinders has the following values: PA 4.0 x 105 N/m2, TA - 250 K, PB - 2.5 x 105 N/m², Tg = 580 K. The valve is opened to allow the contents in the two cylinders to mix until the pressure equalizes. valve (a) Assuming there is no change in the temperatures of the containers themselves, determine the final temperature of the gas in the two cylinders. The atomic mass of chlorine gas is 35.4527 u. (b) Determine the final pressure. N/m2

A throttling steam calorimeter is an instrument used for the determination of the quality of wet steam flowing in a steam main line. It utilizes the fact that when wet steam is throttled sufficiently, superheated steam will form. If wet steam at 200 psia is throttled in a calorimeter to 15 psia and 300 oF, determine the quality of the wet steam.
A 0.5-m 3 rigid tank containing gas at 20oC and 600 kPa is connected by a pipe with a valve to another 0.5-m 3 rigid tank that holds the same type of gas at 30oC and 150 kPa. Now the valve is opened and the system is allowed to reach thermal equilibrium with the surrounding, which are at 15oC. Determine (a) the final pressure in the tank and (b) the total mass of the gas. Molecular weight of gas is 2 kg/kmol
An insulated evacuated tank of 1.75-m> volume is attached to a line containing steam at 400 Wa and 513.15 K (240°C). Steam flows into the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches 400 kPa. Assuming no heat flow from the steam to the tank, prepare graphs showing the mass of steam in the tank and its temperature as a function of pressure in 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 2-m3 rigid vessel contains helium initially at a gage pressure and temperature of 320 kPa and 315 K respectively. Because of the leaks in the fittings of the vessel, the gage pressure dropped to 280 kPa and the temperature decreased to 300 K, determine the mass of the helium that leaked out and also the mass of nitrogen that remained in the vessel. (Ans. 0.06399 kg, 1.2240 kg)

Steam is to be condensed in the condenser of a steam power plant at a temperature of 60°C with cooling water from a nearby lake, which enters the tubes of the condenser at 18°C at a rate of 75 kg/s and leaves at 27°C. Assuming the condenser to be perfectly insulated, determine the rate of condensation of the steam.
An isolated piston-cylinder device contains 5 L of saturated liquid water at a constant pressure of 175 kPa.
