ACTIVITY 2-3 . Answer only no.2

Activity 2-3
1. Draw a PV diagram with complete labels showing the following processes:
A] An ideal gas underwent four successive processes. Starting from
point A, the gas underwent adiabatic expansion to point B,
followed by an
isothermal compression to point C. From
C, the gas is adiabatically compressed to point
D. Finally, the
gas at D was isothermally expanded back to point A.
B] An isochoric process from T1 to T2 where T2<T1.
C] An adiabatic compression from a volume of 5.0L at Tị to V2 at T2
where T2 >T1.
