A hydrogen atom can be in the 1S state, whose energy we'll call 0, the 2S state, or any of 3 2P states. The 2S and 2P states have energies of 10.2 eV. There are other states with higher energy but we'll ignore them for simplicity. The 2P states have distinctive optical properties, so we're interested in how many are present even when it's a small fraction of the total. 1) What fraction of the H is in 2P states at T=5900 K, a typical Sun surface temperature?

As part of an industrial process, air as an ideal gas at 10 bar, 400k expands at steady state through a valve to a pressure of 4 bar. the mass flow rate of air is 0.5 kg/s. the air then passes through a heat exchanger where it is cooled to a temperature of 295k with negligible change in pressure. the valve can be modeled as a throttling process, and kinetic and potential energy effects can be neglected. (a) for a control volume enclosing the valve and heat exchanger and enough of the local surroundings that the heat transfer occurs at the ambient temperature of 295 k, determine the rate of entropy production, in kw/k. (b) if the expansion valve were replaced by an adiabatic turbine operating isentropically, what would be the entropy production? compare the results of parts (a) and (b) and discuss.
