A can of carbonated water contains 355 ml of water and 45 ml of compressed carbon dioxide at 3 atm. The can is initially in thermal equilibrium with the atmosphere at t=25 oC and P=1 bar.
How much volume will CO2 occupy when the can is opened and how much work will be done by the content of the can? Assume that expansion is too fast to maintain thermal equilibrium. Approximate CO2 as an ideal diatomic gas with CV = 5 R, CP 7 R and= 22 disregard any gas dissolved in water.
