QUESTION:

An insulated, rigid tank whose volume is \(10 \mathrm{\ ft}^{3}\) is connected by a valve to a large steam line through which steam flows at \(500 \mathrm{\ lbf} / \mathrm{in}^{2}, 800^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\). The tank is initially evacuated. The valve is opened only as long as required to fill the tank with steam to a pressure of \(500 \mathrm{\ lbf} / \mathrm{in} .^{2}\) Determine the final temperature of the steam in the tank, in \({ }^{\circ} \mathrm{F}\), and the final mass of steam in the tank, in lb.
