. An ideal gas initially contained at 1 bar and 25ºC, is compressed to a final state of 5 bar and 25ºC. Although the initial and final temperatures are the same, the process is NOT isothermal. Rather, the change of state occurs in two steps. First, the gas is cooled at constant pressure (i.e., 1 bar). Second, the gas is heated at constant volume. Please calculate Q, W, DU, and DH for the two steps. Note: Cp*=29.1 J/mol/K, and 1...

5 moles of ideal gas is initially at 300 K and 5 bar. It is compressed to 10 bar at 300 K. This change is carried out by two different reversible processes: A: heating at constant volume followed by cooling at constant pressure B: cooling at constant pressure followed by heating at constant volume Depict these processes on a PT graph.

By what factor does the pressure of the gas increase if the gas is compressed to half its original volume?
A cylinder with a movable piston contains 3 moles of hydrogen at standard temperature and pressure. The walls of the cylinder are made of a heat insulator, and the piston is insulated by having a pile of sand on it. By what factor does the pressure of the gas increase if the gas is compressed to half its original volume?
