Answer

a) $T_{2}=1246K$ b)$T_{2}=826K$ c) $T_{2}=750K$

Work Step by Step

Knowing that: $P_{1}=P_{2}$ $m_{1}=m_{2}$ $V_{2}=2V_{1}$ a) From the ideal gas law: $\frac{m_{1}RT_{1}}{V_{1}}=\frac{m_{2}RT_{2}}{V_{2}}$ Substituting and simplifying: $T_{2}=2T_{1}=2(350+273)=1246K$ b) Using the generalized compressibility chart: From table A-4: $P_{1}=16529kPa$ $P_{R,1}=\frac{P_{1}}{P_{cr}}=\frac{16.529MPa}{22.06MPa}=0.749$ $T_{R,1}=\frac{T_{1}}{T_{cr}}=\frac{623K}{647.1K}=0.963$ From Fig A-15 $Z=0.593$ $\upsilon_{R,1}=0.75$ $\upsilon_{R,2}=2*0.75=1.5$ $P_{R,2}=0.749$ From Fig A-15 $Z=0.88$ Then: $T_{2}=\frac{P_{2}\upsilon_{2}}{Z_{2}R}=\frac{P_{2}\upsilon_{R,2}T_{cr}}{Z_{2}P_{cr}}=\frac{16529kPa*1.5*647.1K}{0.88*22060kPa}=826K$ c) From table A-4: $\upsilon_{1}=0.008806\frac{m^3}{kg}$ $\upsilon_{2}=2\upsilon_{1}=0.01761\frac{m^3}{kg}$ From table A-6: $T_{2}=477^{\circ}C=750K$
