A piston contains 620 moles of an ideal monatomic gas that initally has a pressure of 2.92 × 105 Pa and a volume of 4.1 m3. The piston is connected to a hot and cold reservoir and the gas goes through the following quasi-static cycle accepting energy from the hot reservoir and exhausting energy into the cold reservoir. The pressure of the gas is increased to 5.92 × 105 Pa while maintaining a constant volume. The volume of the gas is increased to 11.1 m3 while maintaining a constant pressure. The pressure of the gas is decreased to 2.92 × 105 Pa while maintaining a constant volume. The volume of the gas is decreased to 4.1 m3 while maintaining a constant pressure. It may help you to recall that CV C V = 12.47 J/K/mole and CP C P = 20.79 J/K/mole for a monatomic ideal gas, and that the number of gas molecules is equal to Avagadros number (6.022 × 1023) times the number of moles of the gas. 1) How much energy is transferred into the gas from the hot reservoir?
