A frictionless piston-cylinder device initially contains 0.15 kg of water at 200 kPa and 150°C. Heat is removed and the system comes to rest on a set of stops when the volume is 0.08 m³. Heat then continues to be removed until the temperature is 100°C. a) What is the initial volume of the system? b) What is the temperature of the system when the piston first engages the stops? c) What is the final quality of the system? d) What is the total work performed during the two processes? e) What is the total heat transfer performed during the two processes?
