Consider 0.8 kg of N₂ at 300 K, 1 bar contained in a rigid tank connected by a valve to another rigid tank holding 0.3 kg of CO₂ at 300 K, 1 bar. The valve is opened and gases are allowed to mix, achieving an equilibrium state at 290 K.
Determine:
(a) the volume of each tank, in m³.
(b) the final pressure, in bar.
(c) the magnitude of the heat transfer to or from the gases during the process, in kJ.
(d) the entropy change of each gas and of the overall system, in kJ/K.

Nitrogen gas is contained in a rigid 1-m3 tank, initially at 5 bar, 300 K. Heat transfer to the contents of the tank occurs until the temperature has increased to 400 K. During the process, a pressure-relief valve allows nitrogen to escape, maintaining constant pressure in the tank. Neglecting kinetic and potential energy effects, and using the ideal gas model with constant specific heats evaluated at 350 K, determine (a) the mass of nitrogen that escapes, in kg, and (b)...
