b. One mole of an ideal gas initially at 300.0 K and 25.0 L is isothermally compressed by a constant external pressure equal to the final pressure in 5a (above). At the end of the process, P = Pext: Because Pas did not equal Pext during the process, this process is irreversible. The initial volume is 25.0 L and the final volume is 10.0 L. The temperature of the surroundings is 300.0 K. Calculate q, w, AE and AH, ASSYS, ASSurr, AStotal, and AG.

Question
b. One mole of an ideal gas initially at 300.0 K and 25.0 L is isothermally compressed by a constant external pressure
equal to the final pressure in 5a (above). At the end of the process, Pas = Pext. Because Pas did not equal Pext during the
process, this process is irreversible. The initial volume is 25.0 L and the final volume is 10.0 L. The temperature of the
surroundings is 300.0 K. Calculate q, w, AE and AH, ASSYS, AS surr, AStotal, and AG.
