An insulated rigid tank contains 3 kg of H2O in the form of a saturated mixture of liquid and vapor at a pressure of 150 kPa and

a quality of 0.25. An electric heater inside the tank is turned on to heat this H2O until the pressure increases to 200 kPa. Please determine the change in total entropy of water during this process. Hint: See if you can find the electrical work consumed during this process.

Answer:

change in entropy is 1.44 kJ/ K

Explanation:

from steam tables

At 150 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001053 m^3/kg

vg = 1.1594 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.4337 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.789 kJ/kg

initial specific volume is calculated as

v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

      = 0.001053 + 0.25(1.1594 - 0.001053)

v_1 = 0.20964  m^3/kg

s_1 = Sf + x(Sfg)

     = 1.4337 + 0.25 \times 5.7894 = 2.88 kJ/kg K

FROM STEAM Table

at 200 kPa

specific volume

Vf = 0.001061 m^3/kg

vg = 0.88578 m^3/kg

specific entropy values are

Sf = 1.5302 kJ/kg K

Sfg = 5.5698 kJ/kg

constant volume  sov_1 -  v_2  = 0.29064 m^3/kg

v_2 = v_1 = vf + x(vg - vf)

       =0.29064 = x_2(0.88578 - 0.001061)

x_2 = 0.327

s_2 = 1.5302 + 0.32 \times 5.5968 = 3.36035 kJ/kg K

Change in entropy \Delta s = m(s_2 - s_1)

              =3( 3.36035 - 2.88) =  1.44 kJ/kg

Allisa [31]

Answer:

10 feet.

Explanation:

Conductors are considered outside the building when they installed. The requirement of NEC is above 10 feet for the clearance after the final grade for service conductors and cables where they are connected with the building, above the sidewalks and the to other areas which are accessible to the pedestrians.

In the compound fe203 irons oxidization number is + 3 + Oxygen's oxidation number is
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

-2

Explanation:

Since its a compound, it's charge is 0.

So, there are 2 Fe and 3 Oxygen,

let x = oxidation number of oxygen

2(+3) + 3x =0

x =-2

Side note : even if the oxidation number is positive, make sure to put the positive sign like how you would in numbers
