One gram molecule of monoatomic perfect gas (gamma=5/3) at 27 degrees Celsius is adiabatically compressed in a reversible process from an initial pressure of 1 atm to a final pressure of 50 atm. Calculate the resulting difference in temperature.

A mass of ideal gas of volume 400 cm³ at a temperature of 27 °C expands adiabatically until its volume is 500 cm³. Calculate the new temperature. The gas is then compressed isothermally until its pressure returns to the original value. Calculate the final volume of the gas. Assume γ = 1.40.

From an initial temperature of 290 K and pressure of 9.91 atm, an ideal monoatomic gas expands adiabatically and irreversibly against a constant pressure of 1.50 atm. What is the temperature of the gas when its own pressure has dropped to 1.50 atm? Give your answer in Kelvin.

TWO (2) moles of monoatomic gas initially at 25°C and 0.5 atm is compressed isothermally to 1.25 atm. If the gas behaves like an ideal gas, compute:i.the final volume of the gas(6 marks)ii.heat lost during compression
