It is desired to compress one mole of air from 1 bar and 27°C to 10 bar and 27°C. For this purpose, compare the work to be done for the following processes (sketch the processes on a P-V diagram for each case): (a) Isothermal compression. (b) Constant volume heating followed by a constant pressure compression. (c) Adiabatic compression followed by constant volume cooling.

Q1:
It is desired to compress one mole of air from 1 bar and 27°C to 10 bar and 27°C. For this purpose,
compare the work to be done for the following processes (sketch the processes on a P-V diagram for
each case):
(a) Isothermal compression.
(b) Constant volume heating followed by a constant pressure compression.
(c) Adiabatic compression followed by constant volume cooling.
Q2:
One mole of air at P1 and temperature T1 is compressed at constant volume till its pressure doubled.
Then it is allowed to expand reversibly and isothermally to the original pressure and finally restored to
the original temperature by cooling at constant pressure. Sketch the processes on a P-V and calculate
the net work done by the gas.
