Question

Problem 39P

Determine the change in the entropy of helium, in kJ/kg, as it undergoes a change of state from 100 kPa and 20°C to 600 kPa and 300°C using the equation of state P(V ‒ a) = RTwhere a =0.01 m3/kg, and compare the result to the value obtained by using the ideal gas equation of state.

Solution

Step 1 of 4)

The first step in solving 12 problem number 37 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: Problem 39PDetermine the change in the entropy of helium, in kJ/kg, as it undergoes a change of state from 100 kPa and 20°C to 600 kPa and 300°C using the equation of state P(V ‒ a) = RTwhere a =0.01 m3/kg, and compare the result to the value obtained by using the ideal gas equation of state.
From the textbook chapter Thermodynamic Property Relations you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
