One mole of air is compressed from pressure P1 and temperature T1 at
constant volume till its pressure is doubled. Then it is expanded
reversibly and isothermally to the original pressure, and finally restored
to the original temperature by cooling at constant pressure. Sketch the
path followed by the gas, on a P-V diagram and calculate the net work
done by the gas.

An ideal gas with γ=1.4 occupies 5.0 L at 300 K and 120 kPa pressure and is heated at constant volume until its pressure has doubled. It's then compressed adiabatically until its volume is one-fourth its original value, then cooled at constant volume to 300 K , and finally allowed to expand isothermally to its original state. Find the net work done on the gas. W= ___J
