COMPLETE & NEAT QUESTIONS TO ASKED QUESTIONS REQUIRED

A horizontal piston-and-cylinder system is subjected to 1 bar external pressure. This piston and cylinder do not conduct heat, but heat can be added to the steam by a heating coil. The steam has an initial temperature of 300C and enough heat is added to increase the temperature by 200C.

a) Determine the amounts of heat and work for this process.

b) The thermometer that measures the temperature at which the heat is being transferred is broken. Using your thermodynamic knowledge, determine the minimum value for this temperature.
