A piston-cylinder chamber contains 0.1 m3 of 10 kg R-134a in a saturated liquid-vapor mixture state at 10 °C. It is heated at constant temperature until the piston expands and the final volume of R-134a is 1 m3 . What is (a) the final pressure and (b) the total energy transferred to R-134a for this process?

(A) 10132.5Pa

(B)531kJ of energy

Explanation:

This is an isothermal process. Assuming ideal gas behaviour then the relation P1V1 = P2V2 holds.

Given

m = 10kg = 10000g, V1 = 0.1m³, V2 = 1.0m³

P1 = 101325Pa. M = 102.03g/mol

P2 = P1 × V1 /V2 = 101325 × 0.1 / 1 = 10132.5Pa

(B) Energy is transfered by the r134a in the form of thw work done in in expansion

W = nRTIn(V2/V1)

n = m / M = 10000/102.03 = 98.01mols

W = 98.01 × 8.314 × 283 ×ln(1.0/0.1)

= 531kJ.

hi there if you are asking for conformation that wavelingth is the correct answer is wrong it is the answer is frequency. : )

i hope this you out, have a wonderful day

its a 5.5 n

glad that
