NaCl is stable in the temperature range between 200 oC and 850 oC, but in that range, NaHCO3decomposes by the reaction: 2 NaHCO3 (s) → Na2CO3 (s) + H2O (g) + CO2 (g) If a mixture of the two is heated to temperatures in the above range, the gaseous products will escape and the residue will contain the original NaCl and an amount of solid Na2CO3. The Na2CO3 is related stoichiometrically to the amount of NaHCO3 which has decomposed. If...

Efficiency of an engine operating condition to Carnot cycle is equal to ? = 0.45. Temperature and specific volume of the gaseous working medium at the beginning of isentropic compression are T1 = 600 K and v1 = 0.5 m3/Kg respectively. Find the gas properties at all other characteristic points of the cycle and the amount of heat released during isothermal compression.

Can someone please explain the Carnot Cycle graph in terms of what equations to use and the concepts. This is what I think but I keep getting mixed up: Path A to B which is Reversible Isothermal Expansion, Delta U= 0, and according to first law Q= -W and we use RTln V2/V1 for W?  In path B to C, the gas expand Adiabatically, so Q= 0 and Delta U= - W. Since it is expansion so the work will be...
