An insulated, vertical piston-cylinder device initially contains 10 kg of water, 8 kg of which is in the vapor phase. The mass of the piston is such that it maintains a constant pressure of 300 kPa inside the cylinder. Now steam at 0.5 MPa and 350C is allowed to enter the cylinder from a supply line until all the liquid in the cylinder has vaporized. Determine (a) the final temperature in the cylinder, (b) the mass of steam that has entered, (c) the work done during the process, and (d) the total entropy change during this process.
