14 g of nitrogen gas at STP are adiabatically compressed to a pressure of 20 atm. What are (a) the final temperature, (b) the work done on the gas, (c) the heat transfer to the gas, and (d) the compression ratio \(V_{max}/V_{min}\)? (e) Show the process on a \(pV\) diagram, using proper scales on both axes.
π Solution Approach
Given: 14 g
Find: (a) the final temperature; (b) the work done on the gas; (c) the heat transfer to the gas
