Suppose 1.00 mol of a monatomic ideal gas is taken from initial pressure p1 and volume V1 through two steps: (1) an isothermal expansion to volume 2.00V1, and (2) a pressure increase to 2.00p1 at constant volume. What is Q/p1V1 for (a) step 1 and (b) step 2? What is W/p1V1 for (c) step 1 and (d) step 2? For the full process, what are (e) ΔEint/p1V1 and (f) ΔS? The gas is returned to its initial state and again taken to the same final state but now through these two steps: (1) an isothermal compression to pressure 2.00p1 and (2) a volume increase to 2.00V1 at constant pressure. What is Q/p1V1 for (g) step 1 and (h) step 2? What is W/p1V1 for (i) step 1 and (j) step 2? For the full process, what are (k) ΔEint/p1V1 and (1) ΔS?

- The pressure P and volume V of an expanding gas are related by the formula PV^b=c, where b and c are constants (this holds in adiabatic expansion, with or without loss). Find dP/dt if b=1.5, P=7 kPa, V=110 cm^3, and dV/dt=40 cm^3/min.arrow_forward1.50 moles of a monatomic ideal gas goes isothermally from state 1 to state 2. P1 = 2.8×105 Pa, V1 = 88 m3, and P2 = 6.6×105 Pa. What is the volume in state 2, in m3? Your answer needs to have 2 significant figures, including the negative sign in your answer if needed. Do not include the positive sign if the answer is positive. No unit is needed in your answer, it is already given in the question statement.arrow_forward1.50 moles of a monatomic ideal gas goes isothermally from state 1 to state 2.
