liquid has constant coefficient of thermal expansion and isothermal compressibility, a V = 2.37 10 -3
Question:
liquid has constant coefficient of thermal expansion and isothermal compressibility, aV = 2.37 × 10-3 K-1 and kT = 3.54 × 10-5 bar-1. The molar volume of the compound at T = 300 K and P = 1 bar is V = 0.100 L/mol, and its heat capacity can be modeled as constant at CV = CP = 27.5 J/mol · K. This liquid is stored in tank that has a “floating top.” Thus, when the temperature changes, causing the liquid to expand or contract, the container expands or contracts. For each of the processes given, the tank initially has V = 30 m3, T = 300 K, and P = 1 bar.
A. The “floating top” works properly, maintaining the tank at a constant pressure. 5000 kJ of heat are added to the tank. Find the final temperature and volume.
B. The “floating top” malfunctions, such that the container is effectively rigid at V = 30 m3. 5000 kJ of heat are added to the tank. Find the final temperature and pressure.
