What is the volume of the gas at the end of the compression process?

Use ideal gas law:
pf ? Vf = n ?R?Tf
=>
Vf = n? R?Tf / pf
= 3.49 mol ? 8.3145 Pa?m³?K?¹?mol?¹ ? 309 K / 7.27×10? Pa
= 1.233×10?² m³
= 12.33 L


> How much work did the external force perform

Reversible work done on the gas is given by the integral
....... Vf
W = - ? p dV
....... Vi
from ideal gas law follows for an isothermal process
p?V = n?R?T = constant
=>
p = n?R?T/V
Hence,
................. Vf
W = -n?R?T? ? (1/V) dV = - n?R?T?(ln(Vf) - ln(Vi)) = n?R?T?ln(Vi/Vf)
................. Vi
The volume ratio can be converted to a pressure ratio:
p?V = constant
=>
pi?Vi = pf?Vf
=>
Vi/Vf = pf/pi
Therefore
W = n?R?T?ln(pf/pi)
= 3.49 mol ? 8.3145 Pa?m³?K?¹?mol?¹ ? 309 K ? ln( 7.27×10? Pa/ / 2.97×10? Pa)
= 8.026×10^3 J
= 8 kJ


> How much heat did the gas emit?

The change in internal energy of the gas equals the hat added to it plus the work done to it:
?U = Q + W
The internal energy for an ideal gas is given by:
U = n?Cv?T
So if the temperature is constant, the change in internal energy is zero.
Hence,
Q + W = 0
=>
Q = - W = - 8.0 kJ

That means 8.0 KJ of heat are emitted by the gas.


> How much entropy did the gas emit?

Change in entropy due a transfer of heat Q at constant thermodynamic temperature T is given by:
?S = Q/T
For the gas in this process
?S = -8.0×10³ J / 309 K = - 25.889 J?K?¹

That means 25.88 J?K?¹ are emitted.


> What would be the temperature of the gas, if the gas was allowed to adiabatically expand back to its original pressure?

For an ideal gas undergoing a reversible and adiabatic process:
p?V^? = constant
with ? = Cp/Cv
The heat capacity ration for a diatomic ideal gas like hydrogen (H?) is:
? = 7/5

Relation above can rewritten in terms of pressure and temperature using ideal gas law:
V = n? R?T/p
=>
p?(n? R?T/p)^? = C
<=>
p^(1-?) ? T^? = C /(n? R)^? = constant
<=>
T / p^[(? - 1)/?)] = [C /(n? R)^?]^[1/?] = constant

for ? = 7/5
T / p^(2/7) = constant
<=>
T' / pi^(2/7) = T / pf^(2/7)
=>
T' = T ? (pi/pf)^(2/7)
= 309 K ? (2.97×10? Pa / 7.27×10? Pa)^(2/7)
= 239.26 K

hope it will help you.
