4(b)_#2: Two rigid tanks both containing Nitrogen, N2, are connected by a valve. Tank A is 20
ft3 at 60 oF,29 lbf/in2. Tank B is 35 ft3 at 120 oF,16 lbf/in2. When the valve is opened the
system comes to equilibrium with the surroundings at 77 oF.
(a) Determine the final pressure, lbf/in2, of the system.
(b) Determine the heat transfer, Btu, for the process.
(c) The amount of entropy produced, Btu/oR.(0.0367 Btu/oR)
