Problem 43

\(\text { Show that } c_{p}-c_{v}=T\left(\frac{\partial P}{\partial T}\right)_{v}\left(\frac{\partial v}{\partial T}\right)_{P}\).

Problem 46

Derive an expression for the isothermal compressibility of a substance whose equation of state is $$P=\frac{R T}{v-b}-\frac{a}{v(v+b) T^{1 / 2}}$$.where \(a\) and \(b\) are empirical constants.

Problem 47

Derive an expression for the volume expansivity of a substance whose equation of state is $$P=\frac{R T}{v-b}-\frac{a}{v^{2} T}$$ where \(a\) and \(b\) are empirical constants.

Problem 49

Demonstrate that $$k=\frac{c_{p}}{c_{v}}=-\frac{v \alpha}{(\partial v / \partial P)_{s}}$$

Problem 50

The Helmholtz function of a substance has the form $$a=-R T \ln \frac{v}{v_{0}}-c T_{0}\left(1-\frac{T}{T_{0}}+\frac{T}{T_{0}} \ln \frac{T}{T_{0}}\right)$$ where \(T_{0}\) and \(v_{0}\) are the temperature and specific volume at a reference state. Show how to obtain \(P, h, s, c_{v}\) and \(c_{p}\) from this expression.

Problem 51

Show that the enthalpy of an ideal gas is a function of temperature only and that for an incompressible substance it also depends on pressure.

Problem 52

What does the Joule-Thomson coefficient represent?

Problem 55

Does the Joule-Thomson coefficient of a substance shange with temperature at a fixed pressure?

Problem 56

Will the temperature of helium change if it is throttled adiabatically from \(300 \mathrm{K}\) and \(600 \mathrm{kPa}\) to \(150 \mathrm{kPa} ?\)

Problem 57

Estimate the Joule-Thomson coefficient of nitrogen at \((a) 120\) psia and \(350 \mathrm{R},\) and (b) 1200 psia and 700 R. Use nitrogen properties from EES or other source.
