Question

Calculate the workdone, heat transfer and change in entropy. 

Do not need to solve.  I just need the  steps to solve it e.g equations etc.

As shown in Figure 1, the nitrogen is initially filled in a piston-cylinder device with the volume of 1.5 m3, the temperature of 127°C and the pressure of 300 kPa.
The heat can be transferred across the cylinder wall. The surrounding temperature is 27°C. Once the system finally reaches the thermal equilibrium, the final
volume is one third of the initial volume. The compression process is polytropic, PV^n=constant. The kinetic and potential energy changes are negligible. The
nitrogen properties are, the gas constant (R) with 0.2968kJ/kgK, and the specific heat at constant pressure (Cp) with 1.039 kJ/ kgK.
