3. (20 points) Argon at 200kPa and 180°C is stored in a 0.85m³ of tank. The argon was compressed polytropically to a state of 800kPa and 250°C. Determine the boundary work done during this process.

Step 1
Given: Initial state: Pressure (P1) = 200 kPa Temperature (T1) = 180°C = 180 + 273.15 = 453.15 K Volume (V1) = 0.85 m^3 Final state: Pressure (P2) = 800 kPa Temperature (T2) = 250°C = 250 + 273.15 = 523.15 K Show more…

A tank contains argon at 600°C and 200 kPa gage. The argon is cooled in a process by heat transfer to the surroundings such that the argon reaches a final equilibrium state at 300°C. Determine the final gage pressure of the argon. Assume atmospheric pressure is 100 kPa.

A tank contains argon at $600^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and 200 kPa gage. The argon is cooled in a process by heat transfer to the surroundings such that the argon reaches a final equilibrium state at $300^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. Determine the final gage pressure of the argon. Assume atmospheric pressure is $100 \mathrm{kPa}.$
An insulated rigid tank contains $4 \mathrm{kg}$ of argon gas at $450 \mathrm{kPa}$ and $30^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$. A valve is now opened, and argon is allowed to escape until the pressure inside drops to $200 \mathrm{kPa}$ Assuming the argon remaining inside the tank has undergone a reversible, adiabatic process, determine the final mass in the tank.
