At 300 kPa: The temperature is 0.529 ºC and the total enthalpy, 2016.77kJ.

At 600 kPa: The temperature is 21.45 ºC and the total enthalpy, 2317.00 kJ.

Explanation:

1. Get the container volume in cubic meters: $1m^{3}=1000L$

$V=14L*\frac{1m^{3}}{1000L} =0.014m^{3}$

2. Find the specific volume of R-134a:

$v=\frac{V}{m}=\frac{0.014m^{3}}{9.96kg}=0.001416\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

3. Find the phase of R-134a, for this, look at the steam tables (Note: I am using the table B.5.1 from van Wylen 6th Edition.) Look for a pressure of 300 kPa at the table; I found this values:

T(ºC) P(kPa) vf( $\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$ vg( $\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

0 294.0 0.000773 0.06919

5 350.9 0.000783 0.05833

It is possible to predict that the properties of saturated R134-a at 300 kPa would be so closely to that of 294 kPa. From that data we find that the specific volume of our R134-a is between vf and vg, so we conclude that it is a vapor liquid mixture.

4. Find the quality (x)

From a linear interpolation for the pressure, it is possible to know the saturation data for 300 KPa:

T(ºC) P(kPa) vf( $\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$ vg( $\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

0.529 300 0.0007405 0.06796

Applying the quality relation for specific volume:

$v=v_{f}+xv_{fg}\\x=\frac{v-v_{f}}{v_{fg}}\\x=0.009989$

The total enthalpy is calculated in the same way:

$h=h_{f}+xh_{fg}\\h=200.71+0.00898*197.96=202.48 \frac{kJ}{kg}$

H=202.48*9.96=2016.77kJ

The temperature is 0.529 ºC and the total enthalpy, 2016.77kJ.

When the substance is heated, the volume remains constant because the container is rigid, so the calculation requires to do the same process again with 600 kPa.

T(ºC) P(kPa) vf( $\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$ vg( $\frac{m^{3}}{kg}$

21.45 600 0.000820 0.03458

hf( $\frac{kJ}{kg}$ hg( $\frac{kJ}{kg}$

229.56 406.13

x=0.0173

$h=232.63 \frac{kJ}{kg}$

H=m*h=2317.00kJ

The temperature is 21.45 ºC and the total enthalpy, 2317.00 kJ.

Astudent is performing an experiment comparing sound and light waves. the student gathers the following data. what conclusion does the student most likely make based on this data? light waves always travel the same speed; however, the speed of sound is determined by the medium that it travels through. all sound waves always have the same energy, so the temperature of the medium does not affect wave speed. light needs to vibrate particles, so it travels fastest in tightly packed solids, while sound does not need a medium, so it travels fastest in a gas. tightly packed particles in solids slow down the light waves; however, sound waves make particles bounce into each other, so they travel faster in solids.
