100 kg of R-134a at 200 kPa are contained in a piston–cylinder device whose volume is 12.322 m3. The piston is now moved until the volume is one-half its original size. This is done such that the pressure of the R-134a does not change. Determine the final temperature and the change in the total internal energy of the R-134a.

T=151 K, U=-1.848*10^6J

Explanation:

The given process occurs when the pressure is constant. Given gas follows the Ideal Gas Law:

 pV=nRT

For the given scenario, we operate with the amount of the gas- n- calculated in moles. To find n, we use molar mass: M=102 g/mol.  

Using the given mass m, molar mass M, we can get the following equation:  

 pV=mRT/M

To calculate change in the internal energy, we need to know initial and final temperatures. We can calculate both temperatures as:

T=pVM/(Rm); so initial T=302.61K and final T=151.289K

Now we can calculate change of U:

U=3/2 mRT/M using T- difference in temperatures

 U=-1.848*10^6 J

Note, that the energy was taken away from the system.
