Answer

$P_{1}=51.25kPa$ $T_{2}=66.30^{\circ}C$

Work Step by Step

$\upsilon=\frac{V}{m}=\frac{1.348m^3}{10kg}=0.1348\frac{m^3}{kg}$ From table A-11: 1) $T_{1}=-40^{\circ}C$ $\upsilon_{1}=0.1348\frac{m^3}{kg}$ As $0.0007053\frac{m^3}{kg}\lt \upsilon_{1}\lt 0.36064\frac{m^3}{kg}$ is a saturated mixture $P_{1}=51.25kPa$ From table A-13: 2) $P_{2}=200kPa$ $\upsilon_{2}=0.1348\frac{m^3}{kg}$ As $\upsilon_{2}\gt \upsilon_{g}$ is a superheated vapor Interpolating: $T_{2}=66.30^{\circ}C$
