ANSWER:Step 1 of 6
In this problem, we have equal molar amounts of carbon monoxide and neon at the same temperature and pressure. Assume the ideal gas model with constant for both gas and that there are negligible effects due to motion and gravity. Our goal is to determine which gas has the greater exergy value relative to the same reference environment.
To this, we will analyze the specific exergy formula:
