A horizontal cylinder equipped with a friction less piston contains 785 cm³ of steam at 300 K and 125 kPa. A total of 83.8 joules of heat is transferred to the steam, causing the steam temperature to rise and the cylinder volume to increase. A constant restraining force is maintained on the piston throughout the expansion, so that the pressure exerted by the piston on the steam remains constant at 125 kPa. The specific enthalpy of steam at 125 kPa varies with temperature approximately as 

H (J/mol) = 34,980 + 35.5T (K)

(a) Taking the steam as the system, convince yourself that Q = ΔH for this process—that is. the four conditions specified in part (a) of Problem 7.15 are applicable. Then prove that the final steam temperature is 480 K. Finally, calculate (i) the final cylinder volume (ii) the expansion work done by the steam, and (iii) ΔU(J).

(b) Which of the specified conditions of Problem 7.15 would have been only an approximation if the cylinder were not horizontal?

Steam P= 125 kPa T = 400 K V = 785 cm3 Steam P = 125 kPa T = ? V =? Q = 83.8 J
