A sealed, rigid vessel of volume 2 m initially contains a saturated mixture of liquid and vapor R- 134a at 10C. The refrigerant is heated to 50C, at which point the last drop of liquid vaporizes. Represent this process on P-v and T-v diagrams. Annotate the diagrams with the current information you know about the states and the process. Draw isotherms and a) isobars on the P-v and P-v diagrams, respectively, that pass through the initial and final states of the refrigerant. b) Find the pressure at 50C and initial mass of the liquid. c) Update your diagrams to include all relevant P, T, and v information.
