Answer

$w = -8.40\ Btu/lbm$ $q = -71.09\ Btu/lbm$

Work Step by Step

Initial state (100°F, saturated vapor): $v_1=0.34074\ ft³/lbm,\ h_1=116.22\ Btu/lbm$ Final state (100°F, saturated liquid): $v_2=0.01386\ ft³/lbm,\ h_2=45.130\ Btu/lbm$ Saturation pressure: $P=138.93\ psia$ Work done by the system $w=P(v_2-v_1) = -45.41\ psia.ft³/lbm\times \frac {1\ Btu}{5.40395\ psia.ft³}$ $w = -8.40\ Btu/lbm$ Energy balance for constant-pressure, stationary closed-system: $q=\Delta h$ $q = -71.09\ Btu/lbm$
