100%

Hello, I am a mechanical engineering student and want to upload this question as I have an exam in early June about thermodynamics. I have been given a question that will help me answer my exams in June. Please could you answer showing step by step guidance on how to answer this question with the formula clearly shown. 

 

Thank you very much
