An ideal gas with Cp = 2.5R at 298 K and 5.00 bar is adiabatically throttled to 1.00 bar. If the flow rate of gas is 1.71 mol/s, and the surroundings are at a temperature of 3°C, what is the rate of lost work, in kW? Please give your answer to 3 SF, and be very careful with units.

An ideal gas described by Ti = 300 K, Pi = 2.00 bar, and Vi = 15.0 L is heated at constant volume until P2 = 20.0 bar. It then undergoes a reversible isothermal expansion until P3 = 2.00 bar. It is then restored to its original state by the extraction of heat at constant pressure. Depict this closed-cycle process in a P-V diagram.

5 moles of ideal gas is initially at 300 K and 5 bar. It is compressed to 10 bar at 300 K. This change is carried out by two different reversible processes: A: heating at constant volume followed by cooling at constant pressure B: cooling at constant pressure followed by heating at constant volume Depict these processes on a PT graph. (Hand drawn on engineering sheet would suffice). Calculate ΔU, ΔH, Q, and W requirements for each path. Cv=20.78 J/mol.K...
