Question
5. 10.0 moles of an ideal gas (the system) is confined in a piston and cylinder assembly
similar to that shown in Figure 2.2. The radius of the piston is 5.00 cm. The initial
temperature is 300 K, and the initial pressure is 2.00 bar. The gas is expanded to twice
its initial volume in an isothermal reversible process. Assume that the surroundings are
in a vacuum.
a. Calculate w for this process considering only the movement of masses in the
surroundings.
b. Make a plot of the mass on the piston as a function of x, the height of the piston. Is
ma linear function of x?
