An insulated tank having a total volume of 60 ft3 is

Chapter 12, Problem 12.32

(choose chapter or problem)

An insulated tank having a total volume of \(60 \mathrm{ft}^{3}\) is divided into two compartments. Initially one compartment having a volume of \(20 \mathrm{ft}^{3}\) contains 4 lb of carbon monoxide (CO) at \(500^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\) and the other contains 0.8 lb of helium (He) at \(60^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\). The gases are allowed to mix until an equilibrium state is attained. Determine

(a) the final temperature, in \({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\).

(b) the final pressure, in \(\text { lbf/in.2 }\)

(c) the exergy destruction, in Btu, for \(T_{0}=60^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\).
