The cylinder-piston device contains 0.8 kg of ideal gas. Now, the gas is cooled at constant pressure until its temperature drops by 10 °C. If 16.6 kJ of compression work is performed during this process, determine the gas constant and the molar mass of the gas. Also, determine the constant volume and constant pressure specific heats of the gas if the specific heat ratio is 1.667
