Question

A piston with 0.0150 mol of a diatomic gas is under a constant pressure of 0.350 bar. The volume changes from 1.25 L to 0.545 L. a. Draw a PV indicator diagram for this process. b. Calculate w for this process. c. Did the system do work on the surroundings, or did the surroundings do work on the system. Justify your answer.

Step 1

The initial point will be at (1.25L, 0.350 bar) and the final point will be at (0.545L, 0.350 bar). Connect these two points with a straight line to represent the process. Show more…
