Question:
A rigid, isolated container 300 L in volume is divided into two parts by a partition. One part is 100 L in volume and contains nitrogen at a pressure of 200 kPa and a temperature of 100◦C. The other part, 200 L in volume, contains nitrogen at a pressure of 2 MPa and a temperature of 200◦C. If the partition breaks and a sufficiently long time elapses for the temperature and pressure to become uniform within the container, assuming that there is no heat transfer to the container and that nitrogen is an ideal gas with C∗P = 30 J/(mol K)
a. What is the final temperature and pressure of the gas in the container?
b. How much entropy is generated in this process?
