Consider a regenerative gas-turbine power plant with two stages of compression and two stages of expansion. The overall pressure ratio of the cycle is 9. The air enters each stage of the compressor at 300 K and each stage of the turbine at 1200 K. Accounting for the variation of specific heats with temperature, determine the minimum mass flow rate of air needed to develop a net power output of 110 MW.

4. now look at the green lines you created by connecting the three boiling point data points and the three melting point data points. for each of these lines, describe any trends you see. 5. locate the elements on your periodic table that you circled in green on your graph. what term or description would you use to identify these elements with respect to the periodic table? 7. using the room temperature line (orange line) and your periodic table, make lists that identify the state of matter (gas, liquid, or solid) in which each element you plotted exists at room temperature. explain your answers.
