Answer

$P_{2}=250psia$ $V_{2}=0.01663ft^3$

Work Step by Step

$\upsilon_{1}=\frac{V_{1}}{m}=\frac{2.4264ft^3}{1lbm}=2.4264\frac{ft^3}{lbm}$ As $upsilon\gt upsilon_{g}$ is a superheated vapor From table A-6E $P_{1}=250psia$ Since we have a constat pressure process: $P_{2}=P_{1}=250psia$ As $T_{2}\lt T_{sat}$ is a compressed liquid From table A-4E: $\upsilon_{2}=0.01663\frac{ft^3}{lbm}$ And: $V_{2}=m\upsilon_{2}=1lbm*0.01663\frac{ft^3}{lbm}=0.01663ft^3$
