THERMODYNAMICS II GROUP ASSIGNMENT ONE
1. A gas mixture has the following composition on a mole basis: 60 percent N2 and 40 percent
CO2. Determine the gravimetric analysis of the mixture, its molar mass, and gas constant.
2. A volume of 0.3 m3 of O2 at 200 K and 8 MPa is mixed with 0.5 m3 of N2 at the same
temperature and pressure, forming a mixture at 200 K and 8 MPa. Determine the
volume of the mixture, using (a) the ideal-gas equation of state, (b) Kay’s rule, and (c) the
compressibility chart and Amagat’s law.
3. An insulated tank that contains 1 kg of O2 at 15°C and 300 kPa is connected to a 2-m3
uninsulated tank that contains N2 at 50°C and 500 kPa. The valve connecting the two tanks is
opened, and the two gases form a homogeneous mixture at 25°C. Determine (a) the final
pressure in the tank, (b) the heat transfer, and (c) the entropy generated during this process.
Assume T0 = 25°C
4. A tank contains 21 kg of dry air and 0.3 kg of water vapor at 30°C and 100 kPa total pressure.
Determine (a) the specific humidity, (b) the relative humidity, and (c) the volume of the tank.
5. The air in a room has a dry-bulb temperature of 22°C and a wet-bulb temperature of 16°C.
Assuming a pressure of 100 kPa, determine (a) the specific humidity, (b) the relative humidity,
and (c) the dew-point temperature.
6. The air in a room has a pressure of 1 atm, a dry-bulb temperature of 24°C, and a wet-bulb
temperature of 17°C. Using the psychometric chart, determine (a) the specific humidity, (b)
the enthalpy (in kJ/kg dry air), (c) the relative humidity, (d) the dew-point temperature, and (e)
the specific volume of the air (in m3/kg dry air).
7. One kmol of ethane (C2H6) is burned with an unknown amount of air during a combustion
process. An analysis of the combustion products reveals that the combustion is complete, and
there are 3 kmol of free O2 in the products. Determine (a) the air–fuel ratio and (b) the
percentage of theoretical air used during this process.
8. Octane (C8H18) is burned with 250 percent theoretical air, which enters the combustion
chamber at 25°C. Assuming complete combustion and a total pressure of 1 atm, determine (a)
the air–fuel ratio and (b) the dew-point temperature of the products

9. Acetylene gas (C2H2) is burned completely with 20 percent excess air during a steady-flow
combustion process. The fuel and air enter the combustion chamber at 25°C, and the products
leave at 1500 K. Determine (a) the air–fuel ratio and (b) the heat transfer for this process.
