So far I have used the quality given, and the steam tables to calculate the total molar volume and total mass of the water: Vm=(1-x)Vml+xVmv m=V/Vm I am assuming that the temperature of the system won't change because vapor will continue to leave as more vapor is created. I'm not sure...

A rigid tank has a volume of 0.01m3. It initially contains saturated water at a temperature of 200°C and a quality of 0.4. The top of the tank contains a pressure-regulating valve that maintains the vapor at constant pressure. This system undergoes a process whereby it is heated until all the...
