One lbmol of nitrogen at 40 °F are to be stored in a tank at a pressure equal to 2000 psia. If the only tank available holds a volume equal to 5 ft3, answer the following assuming that the temperature remains equal to 40 °F.
a. Will the nitrogen pressure in the 5 ft^3 be equal to 2000 psia? Answer: Yes or no; justify your answer with computations.
b. In part (a) you concluded that pressure will not be 2000 psia. What change would you make to the original problem such that you are able to store nitrogen at 40 °F and 2000 psia in a 5 ft^3 tank.

Thermodynamics Problem #3: A tank fitted with an electrical resistor holds 121b of Nitrogen(N), initially at l atm. Over a period of 10 minutes, electricity is provided to the resistor at a rate of 1.2 w. During this same period, a heat transfer of magnitude 28 Btu occurs from the Nitrogen to its surroundings. The temperature at the end of the interval is 200 °F a.) Show proof that the Nitrogen can be treated as an ideal gas for this...
Assume you have an insulated tank containing 1.5 lbm of Nitrogen at 80 degrees F, and at a pressure of 50 psia. The tank is stirred by a paddle wheel that uses 0.02 hp for 30 minutes. The work that enters the tank from the paddle wheel is thus 25.45 BTU.
A tank contains 500 kg of a liquid whose specufic gravity is 2. Determine the volume of the liquid in the tank. 1.29 A tank contains 500 kg of a liquid whose specific gravity is 2. Determine the volume of the liquid in the tank. 130 Clouds can weigh thousands of pounds due to their liquid water content. Often this content is measured in grams per cubic meter g/m3.Assume that a cumulus cloud occupies a volume of one cubic kilometer,...
ME-311: Thermodynamics I VerSteeg In-Class Example Problem Chapter 6 Example: Entropy Handling A rigid tank is divided into two equal parts by a partition. One part of the tank contains 2.5 kg of compressed water at 400 kPa and 60°C while the other part is evacuated. The partition is now removed, and the water expands to fill the entire tank, Determine: d) The entropy change of water during this process, if the final pressure in the tank is 40 kPa....
Worksheet 8 (Intro) 8. A metal tank contains three gases: oxygen, helium, and nitrogen. If the partial pressures of the three gases the tank are 35 atm of O, 5.0 atm of N2, and 25 atm of He, what is the total pressure inside of the tank? 9. The partial pressure of oxygen gas in a mixture of oxygen and nitrogen gases is 1.02 atm. The total pressure of the mixture is 2.43 atm. Calculate the partial pressure of nitrogen...

Volumetric Reserves Estimation The Stock-tank Oil Initially in Place (STOTIP) is the amount of oil that is stored in an oil reservoir. Assuming that the pore spaces in the reservoir are filled with water and oil only, the STOTIP can be estimated using the formula: STOLIP = 7758Ah (1 - S..)/B where A is the area of the reservoir in acres, h is the reservoir thickness in feet (ft). s is the initial water saturation of the reservoir. It is...
