Chapter 20, Problem 43SP

The specific heat of air at constant volume is 0.175  cal/g °C . (a) By how much does the internal energy of 5.0 g of air change as it is heated from 20 °C to 400 °C? (b) Suppose that 5.0 g of air is adiabatically compressed so as to rise its temperature from 20 °C to 400 °C. How much work must be done on the air to compress it?
