Consider 0.8 kg of N2 at 300 K, 1 bar contained in arigid tank connected by a valve to another rigid tank holding 0.3kg of CO2 at 300 K, 1 bar. The valve is opened and gasesare allowed to mix, achieving an equilibrium state at 290 K.
Determine:
(a) the volume of each tank, in m3.
(b) the final pressure, in bar.
(c) the magnitude of the heat transfer to or from the gases duringthe process, in kJ.
(d) the entropy change of each gas and of the overall system, inkJ/K.
