Pure Substances, Phase Change Processes, Property Diagrams
3-1C A vapor that is about to condense is saturated vapor; otherwise it is superheated vapor.
3-2C No.
3-3C The temperature will also increase since the boiling or saturation temperature of a pure substance depends on
pressure.
3-4C Because one cannot be varied while holding the other constant. In other words, when one changes, so does the other
one.
3-5C At critical point the saturated liquid and the saturated vapor states are identical. At triple point the three phases of a
pure substance coexist in equilibrium.
3-6C Yes.
3-7C Case (c) when the pan is covered with a heavy lid. Because the heavier the lid, the greater the pressure in the pan, and
thus the greater the cooking temperature.
3-8C At supercritical pressures, there is no distinct phase change process. The liquid uniformly and gradually expands into
a vapor. At subcritical pressures, there is always a distinct surface between the phases.

3-3
Property Tables
3-9C A perfectly fitting pot and its lid often stick after cooking as a result of the vacuum created inside as the temperature
and thus the corresponding saturation pressure inside the pan drops. An easy way of removing the lid is to reheat the food.
When the temperature rises to boiling level, the pressure rises to atmospheric value and thus the lid will come right off.
3-10C The molar mass of gasoline (C8H18) is 114 kg/kmol, which is much larger than the molar mass of air that is 29
kg/kmol. Therefore, the gasoline vapor will settle down instead of rising even if it is at a much higher temperature than the
surrounding air. As a result, the warm mixture of air and gasoline on top of an open gasoline will most likely settle down
instead of rising in a cooler environment
3-11C Yes. Otherwise we can create energy by alternately vaporizing and condensing a substance.
3-12C No. Because in the thermodynamic analysis we deal with the changes in properties; and the changes are
independent of the selected reference state.
3-13C The term hfg represents the amount of energy needed to vaporize a unit mass of saturated liquid at a specified
temperature or pressure. It can be determined from hfg = hg - hf .
3-14C Yes. It decreases with increasing pressure and becomes zero at the critical pressure.
3-15C Yes; the higher the temperature the lower the hfg value.
3-16C Quality is the fraction of vapor in a saturated liquid-vapor mixture. It has no meaning in the superheated vapor
region.
3-17C Completely vaporizing 1 kg of saturated liquid at 1 atm pressure since the higher the pressure, the lower the hfg .
3-18C No. Quality is a mass ratio, and it is not identical to the volume ratio.

3-19C The compressed liquid can be approximated as a saturated liquid at the given temperature. Thus v T , P ≅ v f @ T .
3-20C Ice can be made by evacuating the air in a water tank. During evacuation, vapor is also thrown out, and thus the
vapor pressure in the tank drops, causing a difference between the vapor pressures at the water surface and in the tank. This
pressure difference is the driving force of vaporization, and forces the liquid to evaporate. But the liquid must absorb the
heat of vaporization before it can vaporize, and it absorbs it from the liquid and the air in the neighborhood, causing the
temperature in the tank to drop. The process continues until water starts freezing. The process can be made more efficient
by insulating the tank well so that the entire heat of vaporization comes essentially from the water.

3-40 The local atmospheric pressure, and thus the boiling temperature, changes with the weather conditions. The change in
the boiling temperature corresponding to a change of 5 mm of mercury in atmospheric pressure is to be determined.
Properties The saturation pressures of water at 95 and 100°C are 84.609 and 101.42 kPa, respectively (Table A-4). One
mm of mercury is equivalent to 1 mmHg = 0.1333 kPa (inner cover page).

3-41 A person cooks a meal in a pot that is covered with a well-fitting lid, and leaves the food to cool to the room
temperature. It is to be determined if the lid will open or the pan will move up together with the lid when the person
attempts to open the pan by lifting the lid up.
Assumptions 1 The local atmospheric pressure is 1 atm = 101.325 kPa. 2 The weight of the lid is small and thus its effect
on the boiling pressure and temperature is negligible. 3 No air has leaked into the pan during cooling.
Properties The saturation pressure of water at 20°C is 2.3392 kPa (Table A-4).
Analysis Noting that the weight of the lid is negligible, the reaction force F on the lid after cooling at the pan-lid interface
can be determined from a force balance on the lid in the vertical direction to be
PA +F = PatmA
or,
F = A( Patm − P) = (πD 2 / 4)( Patm − P)

Patm = 1 atm
The weight of the pan and its contents is
W = mg = (8 kg)(9.81 m/s2 ) = 78.5 N
which is much less than the reaction force of 6997 N at the pan-lid interface. Therefore, the pan will move up together with
the lid when the person attempts to open the pan by lifting the lid up. In fact, it looks like the lid will not open even if the
mass of the pan and its contents is several hundred kg.
3-42 Water is boiled at 1 atm pressure in a pan placed on an electric burner. The water level drops by 10 cm in 45 min

3-44 Saturated steam at Tsat = 40°C condenses on the outer surface of a cooling tube at a rate of 130 kg/h. The rate of heat
transfer from the steam to the cooling water is to be determined.
Assumptions 1 Steady operating conditions exist. 2 The condensate leaves the condenser as a saturated liquid at 30°C.
Properties The properties of water at the saturation temperature of 40°C are hfg = 2406.0 kJ/kg (Table A-4).
Analysis Noting that 2406.0 kJ of heat is released as 1 kg of saturated

Ideal Gas
3-63C Mass m is simply the amount of matter; molar mass M is the mass of one mole in grams or the mass of one kmol in
kilograms. These two are related to each other by m = NM, where N is the number of moles.
3-64C A gas can be treated as an ideal gas when it is at a high temperature or low pressure relative to its critical
temperature and pressure.
3-65C Ru is the universal gas constant that is the same for all gases whereas R is the specific gas constant that is different
for different gases. These two are related to each other by R = Ru / M, where M is the molar mass of the gas.
3-66C Propane (molar mass = 44.1 kg/kmol) poses a greater fire danger than methane (molar mass = 16 kg/kmol) since
propane is heavier than air (molar mass = 29 kg/kmol), and it will settle near the floor. Methane, on the other hand, is
lighter than air and thus it will rise and leak out.

Problem 3-97 is reconsidered. Using EES (or other) software, the pressure results of the ideal gas and BeattieBridgeman equations with nitrogen data supplied by EES are to be compared. The temperature is to be plotted versus
specific volume for a pressure of 1000 kPa with respect to the saturated liquid and saturated vapor lines of nitrogen over the
range of 110 K < T < 150 K.
Analysis The problem is solved using EES, and the solution is given below.

3-99 Carbon dioxide is compressed in a piston-cylinder device in a polytropic process. The final temperature is to be
determined using the ideal gas and van der Waals equations.

Special Topic: Vapor Pressure and Phase Equilibrium
3-100 A glass of water is left in a room. The vapor pressures at the free surface of the water and in the room far from the
glass are to be determined.
Assumptions The water in the glass is at a uniform temperature.
Properties The saturation pressure of water is 2.339 kPa at 20°C, and 1.706 kPa at 15°C (Table A-4).
Analysis The vapor pressure at the water surface is the saturation pressure of water at the
water temperature,
Pv , water surface = Psat @ Twater = Psat@15°C = 1.706 kPa
H2O
15°C
Noting that the air in the room is not saturated, the vapor pressure in the room far from the
glass is
Pv , air = φPsat @ Tair = φPsat@20°C = (0.4)(2.339 kPa) = 0.936 kPa
3-101 The vapor pressure in the air at the beach when the air temperature is 30°C is claimed to be 5.2 kPa. The validity of
this claim is to be evaluated.
Properties The saturation pressure of water at 30°C is 4.247 kPa (Table A-4).
Analysis The maximum vapor pressure in the air is the saturation pressure of water
at the given temperature, which is
Pv, max = Psat @ Tair = Psat@30°C = 4.247 kPa
30°C
WATER
which is less than the claimed value of 5.2 kPa. Therefore, the claim is false.
3-102 The temperature and relative humidity of air over a swimming pool are given. The water temperature of the
swimming pool when phase equilibrium conditions are established is to be determined.
Assumptions The temperature and relative humidity of air over the pool remain constant.
Properties The saturation pressure of water at 20°C is 2.339 kPa (Table A-4).
Analysis The vapor pressure of air over the swimming pool is
Patm, 20°C
Pv , air = φPsat @ Tair = φPsat@20°C = (0.4)(2.339 kPa) = 0.9357 kPa
Phase equilibrium will be established when the vapor pressure at the water surface
equals the vapor pressure of air far from the surface. Therefore,
POOL
Pv, water surface = Pv, air = 0.9357 kPa
and
Twater = Tsat @ Pv = Tsat @ 0.9357
kPa
= 6.0°C
Discussion Note that the water temperature drops to 6.0°C in an environment at 20°C when phase equilibrium is
established.

3-103 A person buys a supposedly cold drink in a hot and humid summer day, yet no condensation occurs on the drink. The
claim that the temperature of the drink is below 10°C is to be evaluated.
Properties The saturation pressure of water at 35°C is 5.629 kPa (Table A-4).
Analysis The vapor pressure of air is
Pv , air = φPsat @ Tair = φPsat@35°C = (0.7)(5.629 kPa) = 3.940 kPa
35°C
70%
The saturation temperature corresponding to this pressure (called the dew-point
temperature) is
Tsat = Tsat @ Pv = Tsat@3.940 kPa = 28.7 °C
That is, the vapor in the air will condense at temperatures below 28.7°C. Noting that no condensation is observed on the
can, the claim that the drink is at 10°C is false.
3-104 A thermos bottle half-filled with water is left open to air in a room at a specified temperature and pressure. The
temperature of water when phase equilibrium is established is to be determined.
Assumptions The temperature and relative humidity of air over the bottle remain constant.
Properties The saturation pressure of water at 20°C is 2.3392 kPa (Table A-4).
Analysis The vapor pressure of air in the room is
Pv, air = φPsat @ Tair = φPsat@20°C = (0.35)(2.3392 kPa) = 0.8187 kPa
Phase equilibrium will be established when the vapor pressure at the water surface
equals the vapor pressure of air far from the surface. Therefore,
Pv, water surface = Pv, air = 0.8187 kPa
Thermos
bottle

and

Discussion Note that the water temperature drops to 4.1°C in an environment at 20°C when phase equilibrium is
established.
3-105 Two rooms are identical except that they are maintained at different temperatures and relative humidities. The room
that contains more moisture is to be determined.
Properties The saturation pressure of water is 2.339 kPa at 20°C, and 3.17 kPa at 25°C (Table A-4).
Analysis The vapor pressures in the two rooms are
Room 1:
Pv1 = φ1 Psat @ T1 = φ1 Psat@25°C = (0.4)(3.17 kPa) = 1.27 kPa
Room 2:
Pv 2 = φ 2 Psat @ T2 = φ 2 Psat@20°C = (0.55)(2.339 kPa) = 1.29 kPa
Therefore, room 1 at 30°C and 40% relative humidity contains more moisture.

3-116 The rigid tank contains saturated liquid-vapor mixture of water. The mixture is heated until it exists in a single
phase. For a given tank volume, it is to be determined if the final phase is a liquid or a vapor.
Analysis This is a constant volume process (v = V /m = constant), and thus the final specific volume will be equal to the
initial specific volume,
v 2 = v1
H2O
The critical specific volume of water is 0.003106 m3/kg. Thus if the final specific
volume is smaller than this value, the water will exist as a liquid, otherwise as a vapor.
