Required information
A closed, nonconducting, horizontal cylinder is fitted with a nonconducting, frictionless, floating piston that divides the cylinder into Sections A and B. The two sections contain equal masses of air, initially at the same conditions TO=260K and PO=1atm. An electrical heating element in Section A is activated, and the air temperatures slowly increase: TA in Section A because of heat transfer and TB in Section B because of adiabatic compression by the slowly moving piston. Treat air as an ideal gas with CP=72R, and let nA be the number of moles of air in Section A. The values of R are given in the following table:
Values of the Universal Gas Constant
R=8.314J*mol-1*K-1=8.314m3*Pa*mol-1*K-1
=83.14cm3*bar*mol-1*K-1=8314cm3*kPa-1*mol-1*K-1
=82.06cm3*(atm)*mol-1K-1=62,356cm3*(torr)*mol-1*K-1
=1.987(cal)*mol-1*K-1=1.986(Btu)(lbmole)-1(R)-1
=0.7302(ft)3(atm)(lbmol)-1(R)-1=10.73(ft)3(a)(lbmol)-1(R)-1
=1545(ft)(lbf)(lbmol)-1(R)-1
Evaluate final),TA, and QnA if TB=325K.
The value of TA is K.
The value of final) is atm.
The value of QnA is J*mol-1.
