Example 2.11: The same gas as in the previous example is cooled from 500 °F to 70 °F at constant volume from initial pressure of 5 atm.  Find point and path functions.

 

Solution 

$                 Work added to the system, W (Equation 2.40):

 

 

$                 Internal energy change, ΔU

 

 

$                 Heat added to the system, Q (Equation 2.41)

 

 

$                 Enthalpy change, ΔH:

 

 

$                 Entropy change, ΔS (Equation 2.42):
