Natural gas having a molar analysis of 90% methane (CH4) and 10% ethane (C2H6) enters a compressor at 340 K, 6 bar and is compressed isothermally without internal irreversibilities to 20 bar. The compressor operates at steady state, and kinetic and potential energy effects are negligible.

(a) Assuming ideal gas behavior, determine for the compressor the work and heat transfer, each in kJ per kmol of mixture flowing.

(b) Assuming ideal solution behavior, determine for the compressor the work and heat transfer, each in kJ per kmol of mixture flowing.

A2-m rigid tank initially contains saturated water vapor at 100 kpa. the tank is connected to a supply line through a valve. steam is flowing in the supply line at 600 kpa and 300 c. the valve is opened, and steam is allowed to enter the tank until the pressure in the tank reaches the line pressure, at which point the valve is closed. a thermometer placed in the tank indicates that the temperature at the final state is 200°c. determine (a) the mass of steam that has entered the tank (b) the amount of heat transfer.
