    A vessel of volume V = 6.0 1 contains water together with its saturated vapour under a pressure of 40 atm and at a temperature of 250 ^@ C . The specific volume of the vapour is equal to V'_v = 50 1//kg under these conditions. The total mass of the system water-vapour equals m = 5.0 kg . Find the mass and the volume of the vapour.

    A small amount of water and its saturated vapour are enclosed in a vessel at a temperature t = 100^@C . How much (in per cent) will the mass of the saturated vapour increase if the temperature of the system goes up by Delta T = 1.5 K ? Assume that the vapour is an ideal gas and the specific volume of water is negligible as compared to that vapour.
