A gas is compressed in a frictionless piston from an initial state of y m3 and 1 MPa to a final state of 0.2 m3 and 1 MPa. There is a transfer of 40 kJ of heat from the gas and a drop of 20kJ in internal energy. What is the initial state volume of the gas?

Concept:According to the first law of thermodynamicsδQ = dU + δWIsobaric work doneδW = PdV = P (Vfinal - Vinitial) Calculation:Initial condition ⇒ P1 = 1 MPa, V1 = y m3Final condition ⇒ P2 = 1 MPa, V2 = 0.2 m3Heat Transfer = -40 KJ (from the gas)CHANGE in Internal energy (u2 – u1) = -20 kJ (drop)According to first law of thermodynamicsδQ = dU + δW-40 = -20 + δW⇒ δW = -20 kJ ---(I) SINCE, the process is isobaric (as pressure REMAINS same)So, isobaric work done δW = PdV = P (Vfinal - Vinitial) δW = P (Vfinal - Vinitial) = -20 kJ1000 kPa × (0.2 – y) M3 = -20 kJ\(0.2 - y = \frac{{ - 20}}{{1000}} = - 0.02 \Rightarrow y = 0.22\)∴Initial volume (y) = 0.22 m3
