An insulated container contains nitrogen at a pressure of 100 kPa and a temperature of 20°C. The volume of the container is 0.50 m3. The nitrogen spontaneously flows into half of the container, and a membrane is inserted to hold it in a volume of 0.25 m3, with the other 0.25 m3 being evacuated. Determine the entropy generation for this process. Is this process possible?
