A 2.0 mol sample of ideal gas with molar specific heat Cv = (5/2)R is initially at 300 K and 100 kPa pressure. Determine the final temperature and the work done on the gas when 1.6 kJ of heat is added to the gas during each of these separate processes (all starting at same initial temperature and pressure: (a) isothermal (constant temperature) process, (b) isometric (constant volume) process, and (c) isobaric (constant pressure) process. Hint: You’ll need the 1st Law of Thermodynamics.

28 moles of an ideal gas with a molar specific heat at constant volume of cv=3.2R is initially in state "A" at pressure 73390 Pa and volume 1.0 m3. The gas then expands isobarically to state "B" which has volume 2.6?3m3. The gas then cools isochorically to state "C". The gas finally returns from state "C" to "A" via an isothermal process. What is the adiabatic constant γ for this gas? What is Q during the expansion from "A" to...

3.0 moles of an ideal gas are subjected to the following processes. First the volume is tripled in an isobaric process. Then it undergoes an isothermal process to a pressure of 9.0 kPa. The volume is then cut in half in another isobaric process after being tripled. Finally, it returns to the original state in an isochoric process. (a) Draw a PV diagram of the cycle. Label each state (vertex) with a letter (A, B, …) and each transition with...

One more of an ideal gas initially at 27oC and 1 bar pressure is heated and allowed to expand reversibly at a constant pressure until the final temperature is 327oC. For this gas, Cv,m = 2.5R, constant over the temperature range. (Note from SRB: Cv,m is the molar heat capacity. An earlier version of the 5th edition that I used last year used Cv with a bar over it, as we have been doing in class. Sorry for any confusion.)....

A heat engine composed of 1.6 moles of an ideal, monotonic gas is initially at 350 K and 1x10^5 Pa. The first step is an isothermal expansion to a pressure of 5x10^4 Pa. Second, the gas is compressed at constant pressure back to the inital volume. Finally the gas returns, at constant volume to the initial state. What is the total work done by the gas during this cycle? What is the efficiency of this cycle?

The molar heat capacity for carbon monoxide at constant volume is CV,m = 20.17 J/(K·mol). A 13.00-L fixed-volume flask contains CO(g) at a pressure of 3.00 kPa and a temperature of 25.0 °C. Assuming that carbon monoxide acts as an ideal gas and that its heat capacity is constant over the given temperature range, calculate the change in entropy for the gas when it is heated to 800.0 °C.
