A 1-m3 rigid tank with air at 1 MPa, 400 K is connected to an air line

Question:

A 1-m3 rigid tank with air at 1 MPa, 400 K is connected to an air line as shown in Fig. P3.107. The valve is opened and air flows into the tank until the pressure reaches 5 MPa, at which point the valve is closed and the temperature inside is 450K.
a. What is the mass of air in the tank before and after the process?
b. The tank eventually cools to room temperature, 300 K. What is the pressure inside the tank then?
