Thermodynamic processes

Question

Starting at temperature 300 K , one mole of an ideal , diatomic gas γ=1.4 is first compressed adiabatically from volume V1 to V2=V116 . It is then allowed to expand isobarically to volume 2V2. If all the processes are the quasi-static then the final temperature of the gas (in K ) is (to the nearest integer)___

Difficult
Solution

During adiabatic process

TVγ1=constant    T1V1γ1=T2.V2γ1    T2=T1(V1V2)γ1=300(16)751=T2=300(24)2/5  =T2=300×24×25

During isobaric process

V=nRTP     VT     V2V3=T2T3 V22V2=300×24×25T3     T3=2×300×28/5     =1818.85  =1819 K

A gas is enclosed in a cylinder with a movable frictionless piston. Its initial thermodynamic state at pressure P1=105Pa and volume Vi=103m3  changes to final state at Pf=132×105pa&Vf=8×103m3in an adiabatic quasi-static process, such that P3V5= constant. Consider another thermodynamic process that brings the system form the same initial state to the same final state in two steps: an isobaric expansion at Pi followed by an isochoric (is volumetric) process at volumeVf. The amount of heat supplied to the system in the two-step process is approximately
