Example 2.

4/p28
When a system is taken from state a to state b in Fig. 2.1 along path acb, 100 J of heat flows into the system and
the system does 40 J of work.
(a) How much heat flows into the system along path aeb if the work done by the system
dddd is 20 J?
(b) The system returns from b to a along path bda. If the work done on the system is 30 aaaa J, does
the system absorb or liberate heat? How much?

Example 2.8/p39
Calculate ΔU and ΔH for 1 kg of water when it is vaporized at the constant temperature of 100oC (373.15 K)
and the constant pressure of 101.325 kPa. The specific volumes of liquid and vapor water at these conditions are
0.00104 and 1.673 m3/kg . For this change, heat in the amount of 2256.9 kJ is added to the water.

Problem 2.13/p57
A steel casting weighing 2 kg has an initial temperature of 500oC (773.15 K); 40 kg of water initially at 25oC
(298.15 K) is contained in a perfectly insulated steel tank weighing 5 kg. The casting is immersed in the water
and the system is allowed to come to equilibrium. What is its final temperature? Ignore effects of expansion or
contraction and assume constant specific heats of 4.18 kJ/kg-K for water and 0.50 kJ/kg-K for steel.

2.6 One mole of gas in a closed system undergoes a four-step thermodynamic cycle. Use the data given in the
following table to determine numerical values for the missing quantities indicated by question marks.

2.8 A tank containing 20 kg of water at 20°C is fitted with a stirrer that delivers work to the water at the rate of
0.25 kW. How long does it take for the temperature of the water to rise to 30°C if no heat is lost from the water?
For water, Cp = 4.18 kJ/kg⋅°C.

2.9 Heat in the amount of 7.5 kJ is added to a closed system while its internal energy decreases by 12 kJ. How
much energy is transferred as work? For a process causing the same change of state but for which the work is
zero, how much heat is transferred?
