Chapter 3, Problem 111P(choose chapter or problem)
A piston-cylinder assembly contains air, initially at \(2 \mathrm{bar}, 300 \mathrm{~K}\), and a volume of \(2 \mathrm{~m}^3\). The air undergoes a process to a state where the pressure is 1 bar, during which the pressure-volume relationship is pV= constant. Assuming ideal gas behavior for the air, determine the mass of the air, in kg, and the work and heat transfer, each in kJ.

QUESTION:
A piston-cylinder assembly contains air, initially at \(2 \mathrm{bar}, 300 \mathrm{~K}\), and a volume of \(2 \mathrm{~m}^3\). The air undergoes a process to a state where the pressure is 1 bar, during which the pressure-volume relationship is pV= constant. Assuming ideal gas behavior for the air, determine the mass of the air, in kg, and the work and heat transfer, each in kJ.
ANSWER:Solution 111P:
Step 1 of 5:-
Here we need to find the mass of the air, heat transfer and work done.
The piston-cylinder assembly contains air at a pressure of, .
Temperature of air is: .
And volume is: .
The system evolved in such a way that the pressure reached to , by obeying the relationship .
