The temperature of two identical gases is increased from the same initial temperature to the same final temperature. Reversible processes are used. For gas A the process is carried out at constant volume while for gas B it is carried out at constant pressure. Is the change in entropy for A greater than for B? Why? Show detailed explanation in terms of its pressure, temperature, and volume.

A frictionless piston-cylinder assembly initially contains saturated liquid water at a pressure of 200 kPa. Then, 450 kJ of heat transfer occurs from a source with a temperature of 500 0C to water and some of the water evaporates at constant pressure. Show whether this state change is feasible or not by considering the increase of entropy principle.
