5. Heat is transferred to 10 Kg of air which is initially at 100 KPa and 300 K until its
temperature reaches 600 K. Determine the change in internal energy, change in
enthalpy, the heat supplied and work done for the following processes: [4+4 = 8
(a) Constant volume process
(b) Constant pressure process
Assume the air is an ideal gas (PV = nRT), Cp = 29.099 KJ/kmol, Cv = 20.785
KJ/kmol, Mol. wt. of air = 29, R = 8.314 KJ/kmol.K
6. For Acetone at 20 0C and 1 bar, = 1.487 10 3 0C 1, = 62 10 6 bar 1 and
V = 1.287 cm3/gm. Calculate
[2+3+3 = 8
(a) the value of (P/T)v.
(b) the pressure generated when acetone is heated at constant volume for 20
0
C and 1 bar to 30 0C.
(c) the volume change when acetone is changed from 20 0C and 1 bar to 0 0C
and 10 bar.
7. Derive the expression PV = constant, for adiabatic process.
