10 kg of gaseous oxygen is compressed in a piston-cylinder device from an initial state of 0.8 m^3/kg, 25 C to a final state of 0.1 m^3/kg, 287 C, with all heat transfer taking place with the surroundings at 25 C. If the process is reversible, determine:
a) the work done in the process;
b) the overall heat transfer to the oxygen; and
c) the change in entropy of the oxygen and of the surroundings
I struggle a lot with thermodynamics, could you please show all work and if possible state the names of equations used. I will rate! Thank you.
