An ideal gas with γ = 1.4 occupies 6.0 L at 300 K and 100 kPa pressure. It is compressed adiabatically until its volume is 2.0 L. It's then cooled at constant pressure until it reaches 300 K, then allowed to expand isothermally back to its initial state.

a.) Find the net work done on the gas.

b.) Find the minimum volume reached.

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

A cylinder contains an ideal gas at the temperature of 300 K and is closed by a movable piston. The gas, which is initially at a pressure of 3 atm occupying a volume of 30 L, expands isothermally to a volume of 80 L. The gas is then compressed isobarically, returning to its initial volume of 30 L. Calculate the work done by gas: a) in isothermal expansion; b) in isobaric compression, c) in the whole process; and d) Calculate...
