Question:

An insulated rigid 2 m3 tank A contains CO2 gas at 200°C, 1MPa. An uninsulated rigid 1 m3 tank B contains ethane, C2H6, gas at 200 kPa, room temperature 20°C. The two are connected by a one-way check valve that will allow gas from A to B, but not from B to A. The valve is opened and gas flows from A to B until the pressure in B reaches 500 kPa and the valve is closed. The mixture in B is kept at room temperature due to heat transfer. Find the total number of moles and the ethane mole fraction at the final state in B. Find the final temperature and pressure in tank A and the heat transfer to/from tank B.
