(c) Teacher explained the process of heat capacity, work done and first law of thermodynamics and asked students to use the previous knowledge of ideal gasses and relate it with the present topic. He asked them to solve the following question. An ideal gas of 2.5 moles at 25 °C and 125 x 103 Pa, for which Cv,m= 3/2R, is expanded isothermally against a constant pressure of 15.2 x 103 Pa to twice the initial volume. Calculate q, w, and AU?
