Consider filling a gas cylinder with ethane from a high-pressure supply line. Before filling, the cylinder is empty (vacuum). The valve is then opened, exposing the tank to a 3-MPa line at 500K until the pressure of the cylinder reaches 3MPa. The valve is then closed. The volume of the cylinder is 50L. For ethane, use the truncated virial equation of state, in pressure: Z=PVm/(RT)=1+B’P with B’=-2.8 x 10^-8 m^3 /J

a. What is the temperature immediately after the valve is closed?
b. If the cylinder then sits in storage at 293K for a long time, what is the entropy change of the universe (from the original unfilled, state)?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.

Asolid cylinder is concentric with a straight pipe. the cylinder is 0.5 m long and has an outside diameter of 8 cm. the pipe has an inside diameter of 8.5 cm. the annulus between the cylinder ad the pipe contains stationary oil. the oil has a specific gravity of 0.92 and a kinematic viscosity of 5.57 x 10-4 m2/s. most nearly, what is the force needed to move the cylinder along the pipe at a constant velocity of 1 m/s?
