Answer:

(a) Q_1=0.283m^3/s

(b) W=68.8kW

Explanation:

Hello,

(a) Based on the inlet conditions, we see that such carbon dioxide has an ideal behavior, so the inlet specific volume is:

v_1=\frac{RT}{PM}=\frac{8.314\frac{Pa*m^3}{mol*K}*300K}{100000Pa*44g/mol} =0.000567m^3/kg

Thus, the volumetric flow rate turns out:

Q_1=0.000567m^3/g*0.5kg/s*1000=0.283m^3/s

(b) Now, by writing and energy balance we have:

mh_1+W=mh_2

Thus, since the ideal gas enthalpy does not depend on the pressure, in Cengel's A-20 table, the corresponding enthalpies at 300K and 450 K are 9431kJ/kmol and 15483kJ/kmol whose values in kJ/kg are 214.34 kJ/kg and 351.89 kJ/kg respectively, thus:

W=0.5kg/s*(351.89-214.34)kJ/kg=68.8kW

Best regards.

What do waves carry from place to place​
mario62 [17]

Answer:

Waves carry energy from place to place.

Explanation:

Some waves are used for mainly communication and phone signals. They help people get internet in the middle of nowhere if you are near an energy wave.

Which type of model is a way of imagining how something works?​
RUDIKE [14]

Answer:

mental model is an explanation of someone's thought process about how something works in the real world. It is a representation of the surrounding world, the relationships between its various parts and a person's intuitive perception about his or her own acts and their consequences. Mental models can help shape behaviour and set an approach to solving problems (similar to a personal algorithm) and doing tasks.

Which of the following statements is true? A) This reaction will be spontaneous only at high temperatures. B) This reaction will
viktelen [127]

Answer:

D) This reaction will be nonspontaneous only at high temperatures.

Explanation:

According the equation of Gibb's free energy -

∆G = ∆H -T∆S

∆G = is the change in gibb's free energy

∆H = is the change in enthalpy

T = temperature

∆S = is the change in entropy .

And , the sign of the  ΔG , determines whether the reaction is Spontaneous or non Spontaneous or at equilibrium ,

i.e. ,

if

  • ΔG < 0 , the reaction is Spontaneous
  • ΔG > 0 , the reaction is non Spontaneous
  • ΔG = 0 , the reaction is at equilibrium

The reaction has the value for ∆H = negative , and ∆S = negative ,

Now ,

∆G = ∆H -T∆S

     = ( - ∆H ) - T( - ∆S )

     =  ( - ∆H ) +T(  ∆S )

Now, for making the reaction Spontaneous ΔG = negative ,

Hence ,

The temperature is low, then the value for  ΔG will be negative , i.e. , Spontaneous reaction .

And , vice versa , at higher temperature , the reaction will have ΔG positive , and the reaction will be non -Spontaneous reaction .

The standard free energy of formation will be zero , only for the compounds that are in their pure form ,

Hence , Al(s) will have ΔG = 0 .
