What is the volumetric flow rate of air leaving compressor


A compressor takes in air at 100 kPa and 300 K and discharges it at 0.25 kg/s at 1.2 Mpa and 450 K. Unfortunately, the compressor loses heat to the surroundings at a rate of 2.5 kW during the process. What is the density of air leaving the compressor? What is the volumetric flow rate of air leaving the compressor? What is the power required to operate this compressor? Is the sign of the answer to part (c) as expected? Explain. Clearly indicate which table(s) you are using for any property values you may need.
