A new nuclear power plant will use thorium as the fuel to produce energy. Thorium's atomic weight is 229 g/mol and the mass loss in the nuclear reaction process is 0.03 g/mol used. The fuel that the plant will have access to contains 10% of pure thorium. The plant will use a local lake to cool down the process. The engineers plan to pump the lake water at a rate of 1.2 million gallons per minute for the cooldown process. The regulations state that the temperature of the lake cannot rise more than 12 K. Will they meet the regulations with their design?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
