Assume a cylinder is divided into two parts. One part is filled with air, the other is evacuated. If a small hole is opened between the two halves so that the air fills both parts, what will happen to the entropy?
|
a |
The entropy will increase. |
|
b |
The entropy will stay the same. |
|
c |
The entropy will decrease. |
Homework Answers
ask in comment box if any doubts and please do thumbs up.
entropy of system is degree of randomness of system.
here air through the small hole will increase the randomness of the system .
for every process the total entropy of the system will increase
so answer is option a

Problem 6: A cylinder of length L = 85 cm is divided in two by a freely movable rigid piston. One of the compartments is filled with oxygen gas, the other - with hydrogen. The mass of the oxygen is equal to the mass of the hydrogen. (a) If you know that the temperature is the same in both compartments, determine at what position of the piston the pressure on both sides will be equal? (b) If you remove the...

As shown in the figure, a sealed cylinder of ideal gas is
divided into two parts by a piston that can move up and down
without friction. There is ideal gas in both parts, but the gas
from one part is isolated from that in the other part by the
piston. The volume occupied by the gas in the lower part is twice
that occupied by the gas in the upper part, while the temperature
is the same in both...

A rigid tank is divided into two equal parts by a partition. One part of the tank contains 3.0 kg of compressed liquid water at 400 kPa and 50°C, while the other part is evacuated. The partition is now removed and the water expands to fill the entire tank. Determine the entropy change of the water during this process, if the pressure in the tank is 30 kPa.

A tank whose volume is unknown is divided into two parts by a partition. One side of the tank contains 0.017 m of refrigerant-134a that is a saturated liquid at 0.95 MPa, while the other side is evacuated. The partition is now removed, and the refrigerant fills the entire tank. If the final state of the refrigerant is 20°C and 400 kPa, determine the volume of the tank. Round your answer to three decimal places. VFI R-134a V 0.017 m...

An insulated rigid tank is divided into two equal parts by a partition. Initially, one part contains 15 kg of water vapor with steam quality 20% at 20 bar and the other part is evacuated. The partition is removed, and the water vapor expands into the entire tank.a) Determine the final temperature and pressure using higher accuracy calculation. b) Recalculate (a) by assuming the gas behave as ideal gas
An isolated chamber with rigid walls is divided into two equal compartments
An isolated chamber with rigid walls is divided into two equal compartments, one containing steam at 10 bar and 370oC, and the other evacuated. A valve between the compartments is opened to permit steam to pass from one chamber to the other. a)After the pressure (but not the temperatures) in the two chambers have equalized, the valve is closed, isolating the two systems. What are the temperature and pressure in each cylinder?b)If the valve were left open, and equilibrium state...

A rigid, non-conducting tank with a volume of 4 m3 is divided into two unequal parts by a thin membrane. One side of the membrane represents 1/3 of the tank, contains nitrogen gas at 6 bar and 100°C. The other side, represents. 2/3 of the tank, is evacuated. If the membrane ruptures and the gas filled up the tank, describe how the process can be reversed in which the gas returns to its initial state. How much work (in kJ)...

IP A parallel-plate capacitor filled with air has plates of area 6.5×10−3 m2 and a separation of 0.32 mm. Find the magnitude of the charge on each plate when the capacitor is connected to a 12-V battery. Will your answer to part A increase, decrease, or stay the same if the separation between the plates is increased? Calculate the magnitude of the charge on the plates if the separation is 0.90 mm .
