I'd appreciate it if you could solve the Q2!!
2. A compressor is used for filling an oxygen tank. The compressor has an efficiency of 70% when taking oxygen from a source at 25°C and 1 atm and compressing to a final pressure at 10 atm. The outlet oxygen is passed through a pressure control valve and into a tank for filling. The tank is initially evacuated. The valve is closed after the pressure in the tank reaches 10 atm. What will be the temperature of the oxygen (in °C) in the tank when the valve is closed? Assume that the specific heat to be constant at the inlet temperature. 2 3 P₂ = 10 atm TT,final = ? WIN.C P₁ = 1 atm T₁ = 25°C 1 nc = 0.7
