A diver releases an air bubble of volume 3.0 cm3 from a depth of 18 m below the surface of a lake, where the temperature is 9.0 ∘C. Part A What is the volume of the bubble when it reaches just below the surface of the lake, where the temperature is 22 ∘C?

As part of an industrial process, air as an ideal gas at 10 bar, 400k expands at steady state through a valve to a pressure of 4 bar. the mass flow rate of air is 0.5 kg/s. the air then passes through a heat exchanger where it is cooled to a temperature of 295k with negligible change in pressure. the valve can be modeled as a throttling process, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. (a) for a control volume enclosing the valve and heat exchanger and enough of the local surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at the ambient temperature of 295 k, determine the rate of entropy production, in kw/k. (b) if the expansion valve were replaced by an adiabatic turbine operating isentropically, what would be the entropy production? compare the results of parts (a) and (b) and discuss.

The volume of a gas is halved during an adiabatic compression that increases the pressure by a factor of 2.5. what is the specific heat ratio? show the math steps .

Give one example to show that when substances are mixed,it may result in a chemical or a physical change depending on the conditions.
