In a continuous manusfacturing process chlorodifluoromethane (CHClF2) initially at 10 bar and 420°C passes through and adiabatic pressure reducing valve so that its pressure is reduced to 0.1 bar (this last pressure is low enough that CHClF2 can be considered an ideal gas. At these operating conditions, this gas can be described by a one-term virial equation of state:

PV RT = 1+ B V molk and the ideal heat capacity is C = 29.93 + 0.0937 What is the temperature of the chlorodi- fluoromethane exiting the valve? How much entropy is generated in the process per mole of CHCIF, flowing through the valve?
