One ton $(1000 \mathrm{kg})$ of liquid water at $50^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ is brought into a well-insulated and well-sealed $4-\mathrm{m} \times 5-\mathrm{m} \times 6-\mathrm{m}$ room initially at $15^{\circ} \mathrm{C}$ and 95 kPa. Assuming constant specific heats for both air and water at room temperature, determine the final equilibrium temperature in the room.
An engineer installs a water tank with perfect insulation. After the installation, the factory workers measure that the tank has 80% air and 20% saturated water weighing 1.5 kg. Then they start to increase the temperature of the water with an electrical heater. They also observe that the tank contains saturated water vapor after 1 hour. Calculate the volume of the tank, the final temperature, and the electrical power of the electrical heater.

$\mathbf{A}$ tank of $0.1-\mathrm{m}^{3}$ volume contains air at $298.15 \mathrm{K}\left(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)$ and $101.33 \mathrm{kPa}$. The tank is connected to a compressed-air line which supplies air at the constant conditions of $318.15 \mathrm{K}\left(45^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)$ and $1500 \mathrm{kPa} .$ A valve in the line is cracked so that air flows slowly into the tank until the pressure equals the line pressure. If the process occurs slowly enough that the temperaturein the tank remains at $298.15 \mathrm{K}\left(25^{\circ} \mathrm{C}\right)$, how much heat is lost from the tank? Assume air to be an ideal gas for which $C_{P}=(7 / 2) R$ and $C_{V}=(5 / 2) R$.
