Question

Consider a process carried out on 1.00 mol of a monatomic ideal gas by the following two different pathways. The first pathway

is A (3.00 atm, 20.0 L) to C (1.00 atm, 20.0 L) to D (1.00 atm, 50.0 L); and the second pathway is A (3.00 atm, 20.0 L) to B (3.00

atm, 50.0 L) to D (1.00 atm, 50.0 L). In each case, the gas is taken from state A to state D.
