Question
A Carnot cycle uses 1.00 mol of a monatomic perfect gas as the working
substance from an initial state of 10.0 atm and 600 K. It expands isothermally to a pressure
of 1.00 atm (Step 1), and then adiabatically to a temperature of 300 K (Step 2). This
expansion is followed by an isothermal compression (Step 3), and then an adiabatic
compression (Step 4) back to the initial state. Determine the values of q, w, AU, AH, and
AS for each stage of the cycle and for the cycle as a whole,
