1.
Consider an ideal gas at 400 K and 100 kPa. As a result of some disturbance, the conditions of the
gas change to 404 K and 96 kPa. Estimate the change in the specific volume of the gas using (a)
Equation and (b) the ideal-gas relation at each state.
Answer: 0.0598m

/kg.
2.
Estimate the specific-heat difference cp _ cv for liquid water at 15 MPa and 80°C.
Answer: 0.32
kJ/kg · K
3.
Determine the enthalpy change and the entropy change of nitrogen per unit mole as it undergoes a
change of state from 225 K and 6 MPa to 320 K and 12 MPa, (a) by assuming ideal-gas behavior
and (b) by accounting for the deviation from ideal-gas behavior through the use of generalized
charts
. Answer: (a) 4.510 KJ/Kmol .K (b) 2979 KJ/Kmol, 5.341 KJ/Kmol.K
