Halliday, Resnick & Walker — The Kinetic Theory of Gases: Problem 23

23 Figure 19-21 shows a cycle undergone by 2.00 mol of an ideal monatomic gas. The temperatures are $T_1 = 300 \text{ K}, T_2 = 600 \text{ K}$, and $T_3 = 455 \text{ K}$. For $1 \to 2$, what are (a) heat $Q$, (b) the change in internal energy $\Delta E_{\text{int}}$, and (c) the work done $W$? For $2 \to 3$, what are (d) $Q$, (e) $\Delta E_{\text{int}}$, and (f) $W$? For $3 \to 1$, what are (g) $Q$, (h) $\Delta E_{\text{int}}$, and (i) $W$? For the full cycle, what are (j) $Q$, (k) $\Delta E_{\text{int}}$, and (l) $W$? The initial pressure at point 1 is 1.00 atm ($= 1.013 \times 10^5 \text{ Pa}$). What are the (m) volume and (n) pressure at point 2 and the (o) volume and (p) pressure at point 3?
