A piston-cylinder device contains 0.1 kg of hydrogen gas (PG model: cv=10.18, k = 1.4, R= 4.12 kJ/kg-K) at 1000 kPa and 300 K. The gas undergoes an expansion process and the final conditions are 500 kPa, 270 K. If 10 kJ of heat is transferred into the gas from the surroundings at 300 K, determine (a) the boundary work (Wb), and (b) the entropy generated (Sgen) during the process

(a) 151.84 kJ

(b) 2.922 kJ/K

Explanation:

(a) The parameters given are;

Mass of hydrogen gas, H₂ = 0.1 kg = 100 g

Molar mass of H₂ = 2.016 g/mol

Number of moles of H₂ = 100/2.016 = 49.6 moles

V₁ = mRT/P = 0.1×4.12×300/1000 = 0.1236 m³

P₁/P₂ = (V₂/V₁)^k

V₂ = (P₁/P₂)^(1/k)×V₁ =0.1236 × (1000/500)^(1/1.4) = 0.3262 m³

Boundary work done = (V₂ - V₁)(P₂ + P₁)/2 = (0.3262 - 0.1236)*(500 + 1000)/2 = 151.84 kJ

(b) Entropy generated ΔS = Cv · ㏑(T₂/T₁) + R ·㏑(v₂/v₁)

=10.18 × ㏑(270/300) + 4.12 ·㏑(0.3262/0.1236) = 2.922 kJ/K.

answer:

science is the study of the nature and behavior of natural things and the knowledge that we obtain about them. a science is a particular branch of science such as physics, chemistry, or biology. physics is the best example of a science which has developed strong, abstract theories.

pseudoscience is a collection of beliefs or practices mistakenly regarded as being based on scientific method.
