Consider an isolated system (no heat, matter or work may be exchanged with the surroundings) consisting of three internal compartments A, B, and C, of equal volumes. The compartments are separated by partitions; each partition has a valve which may be opened remotely. Initially the central volume B is filled with a gas at 298K (25 deg C) and the outer two are evacuated. Consider the following two processes: (a) The valve to the A side is opened, the gas expands freely into compartment A, and the system comes to equilibrium. Then, the valve to the C side is opened and the system again comes to equilibrium.
(b) Both valves are opened simultaneously, the gas expands freely into both compartments and the system comes to its equilibrium.
Which of these processes produces more entropy?

Two flowing streams of argon gas are adiabatically mixed to form a single flow/stream. one stream is 1.5 kg/s at 400 kpa and 200 c while the second stream is 2kg/s at 500 kpa and 100 ? . it is stated that the exit state of the mixed single flow of argon gas is 150 c and 300 kpa. assuming there is no work output or input during the mixing process, does this process violate either the first or the second law or both? explain and state all your assumptions.
