Question

(a) How many moles of gas are in the sample?
mol

(b) What is the temperature of the gas atpoint b?
K

(c) What is the temperature of the gas atpoint c?
K

(d) What is the net energy added to the gas as heat during thecycle?
J

Explanation / Answer

a) We know that            P V =n R T    ==> n = P V / R T              = 2.5 x 103 * 1 / 8.314 * 325              = 0.9252 moles b) P V = n R T     7.5 x 103 * 3 = 0.9252 * 8.314*Tb     ==> Tb = 2925 K c) P V = n R T     2.5 x 103 * 3 = 0.9252 * 8.314 *Tc     ==> Tc = 975 K d) net energy added to system = 0.5 nR T = 0.5 n R(Ta - Ta) = 0 J
