A 1m3 tank containing air at 25℃ and 500kPa is connected through a valve to
another tank containing 5kg of air at 35℃ and 200kPa. Now the valve is opened,
and the entire system is allowed to reach thermal equilibrium, which is at 20℃
(Take: Ru = 8.314 kJ / kg.K).

Answer:

The right answer is "2.2099 m³".

Explanation:

Given:

Mass,

m = 5 kg

Temperature,

T = 35℃

or,

  = 35 + 273

Pressure,

P = 200 kPa

Gas constant,

R = 0.2870 kj/kgK

By using the ideal gas equation,

The volume will be:

⇒ [tex]PV=mRT[/tex]

or,

⇒    [tex]V=\frac{mRT}{P}[/tex]

By substituting the values, we get

          [tex]=\frac{5(0.2870)(35+273)}{200}[/tex]

          [tex]=\frac{441.98}{200}[/tex]

          [tex]=2.2099 \ m^3[/tex]
